Shop Forklift Barriers

Shop Forklift Barriers

High-Pressure Line and Electrical Protection

One of our shops needed custom floor plates and barriers for new equipment installation.  With heavy equipment traffic in this area, we needed to use some 3/4″ Steel Floorplate.  With exposed plumbing, it was necessary to build heavy plate protectors to avoid damage from passing forklifts or other heavy machinery.

Hydraulic Aluminum Crossover Bridge

Installation of a crossover bridge

A Crossover Bridge will be a huge timesaver in your shop. With a push of a button, your workers can safely move across shop locations and not waste that time or risking injury walking up and down ramps and stairs.

This installation shows how the bridge we installed 10 years earlier was salvaged from a location that was shut down and modified for its new home.

The
The Original Bridge Installation was about 1999- Photo shows taken 2003
The pump was mounted under the concrete ramp.
After we refurbished the hydraulics and pins and a new paint job
We had to design an anchor stand for the bridge since this metal grating deck was not suitable for mounting the bridge

The stand also served as our pump mounting location under the bridge.

Truck Upfit for the Road Crew-Keeping Safe

Road Crew Truck Upfit

This crew hits the road in the rain, wind, or snow, they deserve the same work-safe environment as does the shop crew.

We were tasked with securing all the required tools for the job. We designed a special slide for the derailer since it is so heavy and requires a reach and lift with your back extended.  Is this OSHA’s number one back strain position?  It may be, but now the slide mechanism pulls it out so it is a straight arm lift position.  Next came securing brake shoes,  Derail Locks, MU hoses, buggy bars, and brooms.

The first truck we did was old but we completely emptied and cleaned out the bed for layout.

Almost as lovely as when it was new just a little more character.
