Warehouse Protection

A bolted steel industrial guard rail that protects machinery, walkways, in-plant offices, personnel and inventory from forklift damage. Four-way posts are punched on all sides to build any barrier shape, and the system is powder coated safety yellow for maximum visibility.

• Post: 4-3/4″ × 4-3/4″ × 3/16″-thick, 42″ or 18″ high
• Footplate: 10″ × 10″ × 1/2″-thick with (4) 7/8″-dia. anchor holes
• Rail: 12″ high × 1/8″-thick, double-ribbed; 2′–10′ on post centers
• Impact rating: 12,000 lbs. at 4 mph

Heavy structural-steel angle rail that bolts flat to the floor to keep forklifts and AGVs on line down aisles and guide them safely into dock approaches, past walls, and along equipment runs. All-welded gussets and radiused entry curves deflect wheel contact and shield rack ends and structural legs from over-steer. Surface-mounted on regular anchor centers with no concrete work · powder-coated safety yellow.

• Rail: 5″-tall structural steel angle (also 3″×4″ / 4″×4″)
• Material: 5/16″-thick steel · ~8.4 lb/ft
• Standard lengths: 9.5 ft and 10 ft sections, coupled for continuous runs
• Install: Floor-anchored, holes on ~24″ centers; entry guide curves

A low barrier that mounts flush to the floor and stands 12″ tall, so forks and pushed product cannot slide under or through it. Use it as a wall guard, around conveyors and machinery, or as a pallet stop where a full-height guard rail is more than the job needs.

• Height: 12″
• Mounting: Flush to the floor
• Use as: Wall guard · conveyor and machine guard · pallet stop

The lightest tier of the drop-in guardrail range, rated by the manufacturer at 5,000 lbs at 5 mph. Built from 14-gauge steel on 4″ × 4″ posts with 8″ × 8″ × 1/2″ base plates, it is sized for electric pallet trucks, powered stackers, manual jacks and push carts rather than counterbalance forklifts. Rails drop into welded post sleeves and lift out again, so a damaged section is swapped without loose hardware.

• Impact rating: 5,000 lbs at 5 mph (manufacturer-stated)
• Rail: 14-gauge ribbed steel, 4 ft–10 ft in 1 ft increments
• Post: 4″ × 4″, 42″ high
• Base plate: 8″ × 8″ × 1/2″

The workhorse tier, rated by the manufacturer at 10,000 lbs at 5 mph, in 10-gauge steel on 4″ × 4″ posts with 10″ × 10″ × 1/2″ base plates. Post heights of 18″, 26″ and 42″ cover everything from low equipment guarding to a full-height barrier at OSHA rail height. All-welded drop-in sleeves mean no brackets or bolts between rail and post.

• Impact rating: 10,000 lbs at 5 mph (manufacturer-stated)
• Rail: 10-gauge ribbed steel, 2 ft–10 ft in 1 ft increments
• Post: 4″ × 4″, 18″ / 26″ / 42″ high
• Base plate: 10″ × 10″ × 1/2″

The heaviest tier, rated by the manufacturer at 12,000 lbs at 5 mph, stepping up to 5″ square posts on 10″ × 10″ × 5/8″ base plates. Specified where a loaded counterbalance truck could reach the barrier at speed — main drive aisles, switchgear and transformer rooms, and the approach to occupied in-plant offices. Rails remain 10-gauge and interchange with the standard tier.

• Impact rating: 12,000 lbs at 5 mph (manufacturer-stated)
• Rail: 10-gauge ribbed steel, 2 ft–10 ft in 1 ft increments
• Post: 5″ square, 18″ or 42″ high
• Base plate: 10″ × 10″ × 5/8″

A bolted structural guardrail in 13-gauge roll-formed steel to ASTM A1011 Grade 45, rated by the manufacturer at 10,000 lbs at 4 mph when properly installed. Unlike the drop-in systems it bolts rail to post through twin 12.5″ × 3″ mounting plates, which makes the joint itself load-bearing rather than relying on a sleeve. Rails span 12″ to 108″ centre-to-centre; double-rail columns are 44″ high on 10″ × 10″ × 1/2″ base plates.

• Impact rating: 10,000 lbs at 4 mph (manufacturer-stated)
• Steel: 13-gauge roll-formed, ASTM A1011 Grade 45

• Column: Double-rail 44″ H · single-rail 18″ H

The mid-tier Wilgard bolted steel guard rail for warehouse and DC aisles, rated by its maker at 10,000 lbs at 4 mph on a 10 ft rail. A 4″ × 4″ tube column on a 10″ × 10″ × 5/8″ base plate carries 12″ corrugated 12-gauge rails in single, double or triple runs, and every rail and column ships with its own hardware and wedge anchors. Lift-out rails use the same column, so a section can come out for equipment access.

• Impact rating: 10,000 lbs at 4 mph, 10 ft rail on 1/2″ × 5″ anchors (manufacturer-stated)
• Columns: 4″ × 4″ × 3/16″ tube · 18″ single, 44″ double or triple rail

A pass-through gate built from Wilgard MT guard rail, giving a run of rail a forklift or walk-through access point that matches the rest of it, on a new run or an existing MT system. The gate rides on a spring-loaded caster and latches shut when not in use. The maker says the gate has been tested to its 10,000 lb "industry standard" impact rating.

• Impact rating: 10,000 lb "industry standard" rating (manufacturer-stated; no speed or test method given)
• Columns: 4″ × 4″ × 3/16″ tube, 44″ double-rail; 10″ × 10″ × 5/8″ base plate
• Rails: 12 ga corrugated steel, 12″ high, 2 ft–10 ft
• Gate hardware: Spring-loaded caster with shock (125 lb, 3″ wheel); spring latch

The pass-through gate for the heavy-duty Wilgard XT guard rail, built from the same 11-gauge rail and 5″ columns so the access point matches the run. The gate rolls on a spring-loaded caster and latches shut when not in use. It fits a new XT run or an existing one.

• Columns: 5″ × 5″ × 3/16″ tube, 44″ double-rail; 12″ × 12″ × 3/4″ base plate
• Rails: 11 ga corrugated steel, 12″ high, 2 ft–10 ft

A self-closing walk-through gate that replaces one 4 ft section of Wilgard guard rail, bolting to the existing 44″ columns with no changes and leaving a 34-5/8″ clear opening for people or carts. It opens out into the aisle, swings shut on its own and has a safety latch, so pedestrian cross traffic is channelled to one place.

• Fits: Wilgard 44″ double- or triple-rail guard rail (XT, MT, LT)
• Clear opening: 34-5/8″ (replaces one 4 ft centre-to-centre section)
• Gate height: Top approx. 42″ from floor

A welded steel guard built to the size of your shelving, that keeps push carts off the shelving in picking operations. Each one is made to match the shelf, so there is no stock size. Send us the shelf width and the cart traffic and we'll get it drawn up.

• Sizing: Made to match your shelving (no stock sizes)
• Frame: 2-1/2″ × 2-1/2″ × 1/8″ steel tube posts and rails, plastic caps
• Base: 4″ × 4″ × 1/4″ steel angle
• Use: Push-cart picking aisles · small footprint

Sturdy, safety-yellow steel posts that absorb and deflect impacts from forklifts and other machinery to protect dock doors, rack ends, electrical panels and pedestrian areas. Designed for easy floor anchoring without concrete work and suitable for indoor or outdoor use.

• Size: 42″ tall, 4.5″-dia. pipe, 0.125″ wall
• Footplate: 10″ × 10″ × 1/2″-thick with four anchor holes (3/4″ or 1/2″ anchors)
• Finish: Powder-coated safety yellow
• Top cap: Black plastic cap included

A polymer bollard that flexes on impact and returns to shape, rather than resisting rigidly like a steel pipe. Because the material absorbs and dissipates the energy, far less of it is transferred into the slab and the anchors, which is what usually turns a hard strike on a steel bollard into concrete repair as well as bollard replacement. Rated to PAS 13, the traffic-management barrier standard, by impact energy rather than a lb-at-mph figure. Yellow and grey as standard, on an electrophoretic-coated base.

• Heights: 32-7/8″ · 47-1/4″ · 78-3/4″
• Material: Impact-absorbing polymer, flexes and rebounds
• Rated to: PAS 13 — 5,800 J, equivalent to 4.7 US ton at 4 mph
• Impact zone: 0–47-1/4″ (90° approach)

An 84″ bollard set into the slab rather than bolted to it, so the concrete itself resists the impact instead of four anchors in shear. That makes it the choice for exterior dock approaches, gate posts and yard traffic where a surface-mounted baseplate would shear off under a hard strike. Available in 5.5″, 6.5″ and 8.5″ outside diameters, in safety yellow or red, with a plastic cap and striped decal.

• Length: 84″ overall (buried depth per site conditions)
• Diameters: 5.5″ · 6.5″ · 8.5″ OD
• Install: Direct bury into slab — no baseplate or anchors
• Colours: Safety yellow or red

High-density polyethylene sleeves that drop over an existing bollard to restore high-visibility colour without repainting, and to stop rust bleeding onto the slab. Because they are plastic they do not chip or need masking off, which is why they are common in food and retail-facing areas where a repaint means downtime. Internal diameters of 4.5″, 7″, 8-7/8″ and 10-7/8″ cover the usual bollard sizes, in heights from 52″ to 72″.

• Material: Heavy-duty high-density polyethylene (HDPE)
• Internal diameters: 4.5″ · 7″ · 8-7/8″ · 10-7/8″
• Heights: 52″ · 60″ · 64″ · 72″
• Install: Slides over existing bollard, no tools

A square steel bollard for dock doors, office corners and equipment: 5″ × 5″ × 3/16″ tube welded to a 10″ × 10″ × 3/8″ base plate and painted safety yellow. Stock heights are 24″, 36″ and 42″, with 60″ made to order. It bolts down to the slab, and the anchors are bought separately.

• Post: 5″ × 5″ × 3/16″ square structural tube
• Base plate: 10″ × 10″ × 3/8″, drilled for 5/8″ holes
• Heights: 24″ · 36″ · 42″ (60″ custom)
• Anchors: 1/2″, 4 recommended, not included

Blow-molded HDPE column guards that wrap around a building column in two halves and strap together with no tools, putting a highly visible barrier at the base of the column where forklifts and material handling equipment strike. They are sold as a lightweight, easy-to-install alternative to steel guarding, and because they strap on, they can be repositioned or replaced as the layout changes. The standard model is 42″ tall with a 24″ outside diameter, with square openings for 6″ to 12″ columns (which also fit round columns) and a 9″ round opening. A 24″ Short, a 6″ Slim and a Bolt Together model for 14″ to 18″ columns complete the range.

• Material: Blow-molded high-density polyethylene (HDPE)
• Fits columns: 6″, 8″, 10″, 12″ square openings (also fit round) · 9″ round · Bolt Together 14″, 16″, 18″
• Heights: 42″ standard and Slim · 24″ Short · 42-3/4″ Bolt Together
• Outside diameter: 24″ standard and Short · 12″ Slim · 30″ Bolt Together

A curved steel guard, 16-1/2″ high, that bolts to the floor against a building column, drain pipe or other fixed equipment. It comes prefabricated, so there is no welding or cutting on site, and the anchors sit inside the curve out of the way of traffic. The maker recommends a set of four to cover all sides of a column.

• Height: 16-1/2″
• Mounting: Two 5/8″ internal holes · 1/2″ anchors, not included
• Coverage: Set of four recommended for all sides of a column
• Construction: Prefabricated steel, no on-site welding or cutting

A tight-fit polymer column guard for square and rectangular building columns. Interlocking corner sections and expansion panels close onto all four sides of the column with a minimal footprint, and a step at the base encloses the column’s base plate to shield its fixings. Each guard covers an impact height of 0 to 20-1/2″, and guards stack to reach any height. The maker positions it for light impacts and glancing blows, and rates it at 1,600 J at a 90° approach, which it equates to a 2 US ton vehicle at 3 mph.

• Fits: Square and rectangular columns · built to size from corner sections and expansion panels
• Impact height: 0–20-1/2″ per guard; stack guards for more height
• Maker rating: 1,600 J at 90° · equivalent to 2 US ton at 3 mph
• Compression: 4″ at maximum energy

A polymer guardrail built around a column rather than onto it. The rails are set apart from the column, so a strike is absorbed by the barrier and kept away from the structure. It fits columns of any size and section, square, rectangular, round or irregular, and can be supplied as a two- or three-sided unit for corner columns or columns against a wall. Rails and posts can be replaced in place without taking the rest of the guard apart. The maker rates the rail at 5,800 J at 90° on 59″ post centres, which it equates to a 2.5 US ton vehicle at 5 mph.

• Fits: Any column shape or size · full, two- or three-sided
• Rails: 4″ diameter polymer rails, stood off from the column
• Posts: 44-4/7″ high on a 7″ × 7″ base
• Maker rating: 5,800 J at 90° on 59″ post centres · equivalent to 2.5 US ton at 5 mph

The iFlexRail Column Guard with an integrated Traffic Rail added at the base, for columns in high-traffic areas. Like the standard guard it stands off from the column and fits any column shape or size. The maker rates it at 13,750 J at 90°, which it equates to a 4.2 US ton vehicle at 6 mph, for vehicles with an impact height of 8″ to 15-5/9″.

• Adds: Integrated Traffic Rail at the base
• Fits: Any column shape or size
• Posts: 44-2/3″ high on a 9″ × 9″ base
• Maker rating: 13,750 J at 90° · equivalent to 4.2 US ton at 6 mph

A triangular steel wedge, bolted to the floor and painted safety yellow, that stops a forklift or pallet truck wheel where it should not go: at dock edges, staging bays and aisle ends, before racking, walls or the dock lip. Sized at 2″ high, 6″ wide and 42″ long so it stops the wheel without blocking walkways. Four 3/4″ wedge anchors hold it down; no concrete work.

• Size: 2″ high × 6″ wide × 42″ long
• Material: Heavy-duty steel
• Finish: Powder-coated safety yellow

• Post heights: 18″ · 26″ · 42″
• Base plate: 6″ × 6″ × 1/2″

A 1.9″ tubular steel barrier in 2-rail and 3-rail configurations, assembled from sockets, elbows and flanges so runs can be shaped around corners and columns on site. It is a traffic-control barrier only: the manufacturer states it is not rated for fall protection or crash applications, so it should not be substituted where an impact-rated guardrail is specified. Bolts down through railing flanges with 3/8″ø × 2-3/4″ wedge anchors.
