Side Mount Post Protector
A post protector that bolts to the sides of the upright rather than the floor, so it can be fitted at any beam level instead of only at the base. Formed from 3/16″ steel in 12″ and 24″ heights, it suits bays where a floor-anchored guard would foul pallet placement or where damage is occurring above the first beam. Clearances cover standard 3-1/8″ and 4.1″ columns plus a Mecalux-specific 3.25″ option.
