Like the original Roly safety gate, the Total Control Access gate (TCA) design is a dual gate system engineered for controlled pallet movement. Unlike tandem-operated designs, the total control access configuration ensures each gate functions independently for maximum safety.
With the TCA pallet drop safety gate, when one gate is open, the opposite gate remains fully closed and mechanically prevented from opening until the first gate returns to the closed position. This sequencing creates a true pallet drop safety system that eliminates exposure to open edges during pallet transfer.
TCA gate operations are fully automated through proprietary technology and internal connections within the TCA gate system, removing the need for employees to touch or manually operate the gates. This hands-free automation is especially valuable in facilities relying on multiple TCA systems to maintain consistent safety across high-traffic pallet drop zones.
Because no manual intervention is required, the system supports fast-paced material handling while remaining compliant with OSHA safety gate requirements. This makes the TCA ideal for high-volume fulfillment centers where pallet drop speed and worker protection must coexist.
Total Control Access Gate (TCA) Advantages:
- Available for single or double-wide standard sizes, using Total Control Access technology
- Exceeds federal and industry standards as OSHA-compliant safety gates
- Engineered to meet or exceed ANSIfall protection guidelines
- Available in powder-coated mild steel or electro-polished stainless steel
- Photo eyes and tension monitors detect and correct issues automatically
- Sensors available to connect to WMS, AGVs, and other facility equipment
- Custom sizes available to fit any pallet drop safety system application
By combining automation, redundancy, and intelligent monitoring, the Total Control Access gate delivers a higher level of fall prevention without slowing operations. Designed for modern material handling environments, this solution allows facilities to improve safety, maintain compliance, and protect employees at every pallet transfer point, without relying on manual gate operation.
