Use an Industrial Safety Gate and Guard Rails to Section off Restricted Work Areas

You can section off unsafe work areas in your facility my installing an OSHA approved industrial safety gate and guard rails. The rails will prevent employees from wandering into these restricted locations or getting too close to production equipment. Gates allow authorized workers the ability to access the work locations when wearing the appropriate safety equipment or to perform routine maintenance.

Use Signage with Your Industrial Safety Gate and Guard Rails

 

You will want to make sure to use the right types of signage in locations where you have installed an industrial safety gate and guard rails. For example, if workers are required to wear hard hats and safety goggles, you should have a warning sign stating this equipment is needed to enter the location. When the gate and railings are near working machinery you might want a sign that states to keep the gate closed while equipment is in operation. By properly placing signage near gates you help increase awareness about potential hazards and often help to prevent accidents in your workplace.
