Dock-Lift safety gates create a safe environment for employees moving material to and from loading docks, supporting compliance with fall protection OSHA standards. The safety gate secures the ledges of loading dock lifts, pit-mounted dock lifts, and scissor lifts, providing reliable protection in elevated work zones. This system functions as one of the most effective industrial safety gates for dock and warehouse operations.
The Dock-Lift safety gate is a self-closing gate that automatically closes and locks into place as the lift elevates to align with the tractor-trailer, supporting ANSI guardrail requirements. The barrier creates fall protection for employees on the lift, keeping them safe as they move palletized material in and out of the truck. The gates stay locked as the lift is lowered, and automatically open at ground level or when aligned with the loading dock, enhancing dock fall protection by preventing exposure to open edges during loading and unloading.
