RITE* ITE ALWAYS LOOKING AHEAD

The science of safety Industrial facilities are inherently dangerous and use a variety of barriers to protect people, products and property. impact rating in terms of energy allows the user to understand the effects of various speeds and weights. It also helps determine a more appropriate barrier based on the application than would be possible with a single speed and weight rating. the impact cannot be fully absorbed and the barrier would not be able to stop the load – indicating that this barrier should not be used for this application. In some instances, these barriers may simply separate pedestrian...

Considerations There are several considerations facility managers should keep in mind when considering safety barrier applications: » What are the maximum gross loads and speeds of the material handling equipment expected to impact the barriers? » Is there sufficient space to allow the barrier to sustain maximum deflection when impacted? » Is repair or replacement acceptable after a barrier impact creates permanent deformation? Many manufacturers rate industrial barriers based on their ability to stop an impact of 10,000 lbs. at 4 mph - which has been an industry standard for more than 30 years....

Loading dock safety barriers Dok-Guardian™ Safety Barrier Ensure maximum safety at the loading dock and other areas of a plant that require separation protection. 4 | ritehite.com | Safety Barrier Systems This heavy duty safety barrier is made of a bright red PVC-coated fiberglass mesh curtain with three bright yellow heavy-duty restraint straps, that also serve as a highly visible warning sign. It operates manually, and easily fits across openings up to 16’5” wide.

Full-time safety integration The Dok-Guardian barrier is designed to integrate with Rite-Hite’s powerful Dok-Lok® system, to ensure full-time loading dock safety. The red light on the Dok-Lok control box indicates that the Dok-Guardian’s curtain is safely locked across the opening. The Dok-Lok vehicle restraint safely secures the trailer to the loading dock. When the lock button on the Dok-Lok is pressed and the inside light turns green, the Dok-Guardian interlock releases, allowing for loading and unloading of a trailer.

SpanGuard® Mesh SpanGuard Mesh is a lightweight, high-visibility barrier that helps define and separate workspaces, and will restrict access to hazardous areas like loading docks and walkways near fork truck traffic. It can be easily removed and stored, or relocated should the plant layout change. GuardRite® Removable Handrail GuardRite Removable Handrail is used as a visibility barrier to separate and protect areas of your plant that need occasional access. The handrails lock in place, are removable between posts, and are designed to nest on other rails for easy access.

GuardRite® Strap GuardRite Strap is a simple but powerful barrier. It’s designed to provide protection in places where occasional unrestricted access is needed. That includes interior loading docks and exterior platform docks. GuardRite® Steel GuardRite Steel is a traditional guardrail, ideal in situations where rigid, durable protection is needed. Examples include isolating open, exposed work areas, separating conveyors from pallet storage, and protecting workstations at loading docks. GuardRite® Flex GuardRite Flex is a modular, high-visibility fixed barrier system that is easy to install,...

Protect your employees and avoid accidents when working on mezzanines and elevated work platforms with this dual reciprocating safety barrier.
