SafeRack helps bulk loading and unloading facilities protect their workers and, in turn, increase productivity. Our railcar safety cages are built with lightweight—yet heavy-duty—aluminum. They also help meet OSHA fall protection requirements.
Our vertical mount safety cage is the perfect option if the gangway working position is precisely horizontal and the walk surface of the gangway matches up with the railcar’s walk surface. The safety cage rotates in the vertical position, usually outside the common railroad envelope. If varying heights of railcars are present, or the range of the gangway varies above or below horizontal, our pivoting option is recommended.
This option provides a secondary pivot motion to the safety cage, allowing for it to function safely and properly even with varying heights of railcars. It is counterweighted and pivots easily for clearance issues.
Bulk loading and unloading facilities depend on SafeRack tanker truck access platforms and truck safety cages to help them run on slim margins and tight schedules, safely turning more tanker trucks, railcars and isotainers in less time. They also help meet OSHA fall protection requirements and also include a 4th rail for added fall protection.
This option is popular when the gangway working position is precisely horizontal and the walk surface of the gangway matches up with the tank car walk surface. The railcar and truck safety cage rotates in the vertical position, usually outside the common railroad envelope. This option is not popular when varying heights of railcars are present, or the range of the gangway can vary above or below horizontal, since the cage is only horizontal when the gangway is as well.
This option provides a secondary pivot motion to the safety cage, allowing it to work in a horizontal position even with varying heights of railcars. It is counter weighted and pivots up for clearance issues. 
Expanded cement cage is flared at bottom, allowing space for off-set hatches to be opened and closed. Extended bottom section closes gaps for operating safety.
Complete elevating platforms or cages attached to gangways provide fall protection for any application. Custom design are available. A SafeRack representative will come to your site and see what works for you.
