Applications for Single Bar Gates include:

• cage ladders
• fire escapes
• working platforms
• silos
• petrochemical and drilling platforms
  
• access to machinery
• integration into existing guardrail systems
  
• segregated pedestrian routing
  

The Safety Gate provides fall protection for ladderway openings and platforms.

Safety Gates have a range of uses from fall protection for ladderway openings and platforms to simple barrier entry/exit points in ground level segregated pedestrian routes. They are designed to prevent people from inadvertently walking into an unsafe opening and ensure safety at access/egress points on working platforms. Designed as a simple, yet robust self-closing gate, they offer a low maintenance, long design life with 5 year (100,000 cycle) warranty.

After opening, the gate will automatically swing back to the closed position. The design features of the gate allow it to be configured to either left or right opening, with an adjustable closing force.

Installing a Safety Gate increases worker safety and reduces maintenance costs. Figures published by Eurostat have shown that over 15% of all labour accidents in Europe have been directly attributed to people falling from a platform or ladder.
