Forklift Guard Rails

Convenient industrial forktruck guardrail kits for harsh environments

Posts featuring an OHSA approved yellow that promotes visibility to ensure safety in harsh environments are now available in convenient industrial forktruck guardrail kits. As warehouse pedestrian or machine safety barriers, the kitted solution creates a protective perimeter that keeps workers and equipment safe from injury or damage. Different-sized kit options are available including 18″ high posts with one rail or 42″ high posts with two rails, with each designed to meet specific user safety applications.

Experts recommend using the former option if you want impact protection for facility assets such as conveyor systems, office in-plants, and shelving. Those who wish to protect and separate pedestrians and personnel from material handling equipment should use the latter option. It’s best used in areas where bathrooms, electrical panels, and exposed workstations exist. All guardrail sections and posts ship with fasteners to ensure proper installation and anchoring to the concrete floor. Components bolt together to allow easy installation and users can move or add on to them in the future.
