Partitons and Barriers to Reduce Safety Violations

9. November 2011 01:07

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) recently released agency data on the most common types of safety infractions in 2010 that can lead to workplace injuries and fatalities.  Listed among the top ten infractions was fall protection and machine guarding.  SpaceGuard offers an array of wire partitioning and security guarding solutions to eliminate future infractions.

RailGuard mezzanine handrail safety systems are an easy installed alternative to traditional mezzanine hand railing.  Panels, constructed with SpaceGuard’s triple crimped woven wire securely welded in an angle frame, and kick plates prevent potentially costly accidents from falling objects.  Posts, constructed from 2” X 2” steel tube, raise 45” above the deck.  Posts are provided with both top mount and side mount installation to optimize the space of your mezzanine or catwalk.  RailGuard safety systems meet OSHA requirements of 200 lbs load applied at any point / direction.  Tie off may still be required, but RailGuard ultimately aids in the prevention of falls or items dropping from overhead.

 

SpaceGuard 2000 versatile mesh enclosures, as the name implies, are engineered for versatility and customization as the name suggests.  SG2000 partitions are available in woven wire, welded wire, expanded metal, sheet metal, and even lexan for machine and robotic guarding. SG2000 robotic guarding is available in a variety of colors in our factory applied powder coat including yellow for posts and the tops of panels, and black for improved visibility of the machinery through the mesh.  SG2000 can also be configured for full height barriers atop mezzanines to provide even additional protection above RailGuard.

Workplace safety violations put workers at risk and can be costly with fines and possible loss time.  Don’t let another potential violation cost you, call one of SpaceGuard’s trained sales representatives to help design a secure, safe solution to meet your OSHA or other safety requirements.
