SERCO SAFETY GATE: DESIGNED FOR PEACE OF MIND

In a busy loading dock, an open, unprotected dock opening is an accident waiting to happen.

Increased Safety

The Serco Dock GuardTM Safety Gate, in a closed position, protects personnel, goods and equipment from inadvertently falling off the loading dock through an open dock door.

Save on Maintenance Costs

Overhead door damage is often the highest maintenance expense at busy distribution docks. The barrier protects the dock doors, door tracks and hardware from damage due to accidental forklift impact. There’s no need for expensive concrete-filled pipe bollards on the dock floor.

In a raised position, the Safety Gate allows free traffic movement from the dock to the truck bed. The Dock Guard is tested to stop a 15,000-lb. load travelling at 4 mph without any damage to the pivoting mechanism or support structure. The barrier arm itself can easily be replaced if damage occurs.

Rack Sentry® rack protectors attach to your rack uprights, protecting them from the abuse from collisions with your forklifts. Constructed of a flexible EVA material, Rack Sentry gives your racks a highly visible layer of protection that’s easily installed without tools. Rack Sentry is available in a number of sizes to fit most uprights. Additionally, there are models available for low beam installations and for end racks.

Rack Sentry® is ideal for intermediate rack uprights where high visibility and a flexible layer of protection is most needed. The product is designed to absorb impact by flexing, returning to shape to work again. We have tested Rack Sentry® to a limit of 3mph (5km/h) using a 5,000 lb. (capacity) forklift without visible damage to the rack upright, forklift, or product.

Rack Sentry® installs directly to the rack upright, eliminating the need to drill into the floor at the rack upright. In use, Rack Sentry® puts no stress on the floor.

Rack Sentry® exceeds the European FEM standard of 400 N.m protection recommended for rack uprights.
