Avoid Forklift Accidents

Protecting your employees from getting injured in your warehouse is a major concern.  Accidents in warehouses happen almost every day.  Some accidents may not be fatal, yet some are.  You can provide forklift safety training but sometimes extra precaution is needed.  Investigation Report: Fatal accident at loading dock plus Safety Recommendations – PDF

OSHA recommends that employers provide safety curbs and railings around the perimeter of outdoor loading docks.  Yellow Gate Barriers play a big part in accident prevention maintenance.

Eliminate Costly Expenses

Heavy equipment or products rolling off your dock can cause injury to your employees and accumulate costly expenses.  It’s stressful for your company to pay out of pocket for medical expenses – and to replace or repair equipment starts to add up fast.

Having a Yellow Gate Barrier installed at your dock door helps to eliminate stress by providing that extra barrier of needed protection.

Prevent Product Theft

Keeping your customers happy with timely delivery is quite an accomplishment!  But what happens to that relationship when you have merchandise ready to ship, and it disappears right off your dock?

Theft is very discouraging.  Save yourself the cost and embarrassment of explaining or replacing stolen merchandise.  Install a Yellow Gate barrier at the edge of your dock to stop thieves from accessing your dock area.

Traffic Control & Barrier Gates

Installing traffic control and barrier gates at critical points is a great safety precaution for your warehouse and dock areas. They not only protect your employees, they can protect your equipment and merchandise as well.
