A self-closing swing gate that adjusts on site to fit the opening actually present, rather than the one on the drawing — which is why it is the usual retrofit choice for existing handrail and guardrail. Five adjustment ranges span roughly 18″ to 48″. At 22″ high it closes a walkthrough gap in an existing rail run rather than acting as the rail itself.

  • Height: 22″
  • Adjustment ranges: 19–29″ · 18–28″ · 28–38″ · 27–37″ · 38–48″
  • Action: Self-closing
  • Mounts to: Handrail or guardrail

A self-closing pallet gate built from six independent spring-loaded arms on integrated casters, so a strike damages one arm rather than the whole gate — and that arm is replaced individually. The arms close behind the load automatically, keeping a barrier at the edge whether the pallet is in place or not. Widths of 4, 6 and 8 ft at 42″ high, with clearances of 48″, 72″ and 96″ for roll-formed and structural rack.

  • Height: 42″
  • Widths: 4 ft · 6 ft · 8 ft
  • Clearances: 48″ · 72″ · 96″
  • Arms: 6 independent spring-loaded arms, individually replaceable

An all-welded tubular steel gate that pivots so one side is always closed: as the loading side opens, the edge side closes, and the worker is never exposed to the drop. The manufacturer cites OSHA fall-protection requirements for elevated work surfaces (29 CFR 1910.28 / 1910.29). Standing 79.5″ high and 66″ deep, in single-pallet (63″ W) and double-pallet (120″ W) versions with clear openings from 55″ to 120″.

  • Height: 79.5″ · Depth 66″
  • Single pallet: 63″ wide
  • Double pallet: 120″ wide
  • Clear openings: 55″ · 60″ · 72″ · 96″ · 108″ · 120″
