 The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA)
Instruction PUB 8-1.3 SEP
21, 1987 details methods how an effective safety system
protects operators, engineers, programmers, maintenance personnel, and others
who could be exposed to hazards associated with a robot's operation. SpaceGuard’s innovative safeguarding products
are geared to meet requirements of robotic guarding applications.
Fixed
Barrier Guard: A fixed
barrier guard is a physical barrier around a robot work envelope that requires
tools for removal, preventing access through, over, under, or around the fence.
It provides sufficient clearance for a worker between the guard and any robot
reach, including parts held by an end-effector, to perform a specific task
under controlled conditions.
SpaceGuard’s SG2000
versatile mesh enclosures are designed with options to provide varying
levels of safety & security based upon the needs of the project. SG2000 offers multiple infill options, such
woven & welded wire mesh, expanded & solid sheet metal and lexan, all
allowing for full visibility within a safe environment. Unlike conventional vertical based wire partition systems, SG2000 panels run horizontally connected through steel posts making them more efficient for projects requiring long runs, extended heights and variable sweep spaces. SG2000 versatile mesh enclosures come
standard with a durable, high quality gray polyester powder coat finish with
five (5) additional standard colors, thermoplastic powder coat and hot dipped
galvanized finish.
Protecting
property and personnel is a top priority for industry and SpaceGuard is
committed to providing industry-leading, innovative safeguarding products to
meet the needs of the marketplace. For

The U.S Chamber of Commerce estimates that companies in the United States will lose more than $50 billion to small-scale pilferage and large-scale embezzlement a year. To pay for it, every man and woman working in America today contributes more than $400 per year. If you already have effective controls in place you may notice the discrepancies, but for most business managers, you have too many duties on your plate to see the full scope of the losses incurred. SpaceGuard offers three wire partition products, each providing a level of secure storage tailored to meet your needs and protect your bottom line.
Ford
Logan woven wire partitions are the industry-standard design for wire partitioning
and are a trusted source of secured storage for the budget conscious and those needing
quick-ship materials. For tool &
part cribs, factory-installed slide-up service windows and dutch doors are
available to provide distribution points within the secured environment. Factory-installed panic bars are available hinge
doors to satisfy industrial EGRESS requirements. Standard gray components are stocked in 7’, 8’
and 10’ heights and are available to ship from our factory in as few as 2
working days.
2180
welded wire partitions are the perfect synergy of form and function,
making them ideal for restaurant
and retail secured storage. Industrially rugged, yet commercially
appealing, series 2180’s fully-framed, welded design is easy to install and
reconfigure. Hinge doors, available with optional factory-installed panic
bar to satisfy EGRESS requirements, are pre-hung in the frame and panels are
easily bolted without interference from the wires. Factory-installed
slide-up service windows are available to provide distribution points within
the secured environment. Unlike other
systems on the market, line stiffener posts do not install in-line and
therefore do not cause un-necessary growth saving precious square footage.
SG2000
versatile mesh enclosures are the choice for many secured storage applications
as they provide design flexibility and options for increased security.
SG2000 is designed for both standard and custom applications, offering multiple
infill options: woven & welded wire mesh, expanded & solid sheet metal
and lexan. For distribution needs,
factory-installed slide-up service windows and dutch doors are available. Factory-installed panic bars to satisfy EGRESS
requirements and pre-engineered electronic access control devices including
strikes and magnetic locks are available to work with your card reader or
biometric access system.

Features / Benefits Provided:
- Increased security against pilferage by limiting the size of openings in the partition
- Controlled acess using electric strikes and magnetic locks in conjunction with card readers on all cage gates
The Opportunity:
A national chain of department stores recently upgraded the level of security at its New Jersey distribution center surrounding the packaging operation of its fashion jewelry and watches. given that much of the jewelry is small in size, it can be carried or passed out of the work area relatively undetected. The distribution center added around the clock security, a series of cameras covering the entire work area and mandatory body scans prior to personnel exiting the area. Yet given the size of the merchandise, ample physical security was still required to enclose the area while still allowing for mobile equipment to gain access to fufill orders.
The customer turned to a readily available high security specification, the US Drug Enforcement Administration's (DEA) requirement for physical security of Schedule III through V controlled substances, but realized that even the 2-1/2" inch openings allowed in a DEA cage still provided too much space to pass the small jewelry through.
The Solution:
SpaceGuard Products designed a full height versatile mesh enclosure using a much tighter 1/2 inch woven wire mesh. By design, the mesh is full welded into an angle framed panel and stacked between 2" X 2" tubular posts using hardware that connects on the secure side of the enclosure to prevent tampering. The entrance to the enclosed workspace included a secondary "man trap" cage to hold personnel until permitted entry by security guards. The system provided strong walls with limited mesh openings to prevent passage of the merchandise outside of the enclosed area or allow for the merchandise to be thrown over the partition wall. the wire mesh enclsoure was constructed without standard maintenance sweep space between the floors and mesh paneling. Additionally, angle and broom guards were added to fill small gaps in the natural design of slide gates or introduced by uneven floor surfaces. All hinge gates of the wire mesh enclosure were equipped with hydraulic closers and electric strikes while large slide gates built to allow forklifts were equipped with magnetic locks, all used in conjunction with the distribution center's card readers.

Engineers at Alcoa were charged with the task of procuring area guarding for their Lafayette, IN aluminum fabrication facility. Specifically, they needed visually distinctive safety barriers that did not obscure the view of the guarded equipment. Alcoa worked with local representatives of SpaceGuard Products to provide a cost effective solution. The result was a safety barrier coupling SpaceGuard’s SG2000 versatile mesh enclosures and a newly developed bolt-on component, VAS (Visual Alert Splice) kits.
Constructed from 1” x 1 ⅝” steel channel, VAS kits easily attach to all SpaceGuard area guarding and secure storage products making them an economical alternative to custom finishing an entire project application. As an independent component, retrofitting existing material is just as hassle free.
When asked how Alcoa felt about the final installation, Maintenance Supervisor, Marks Mays, responded, "The perimeter fencing is easy to install .. looks great .. and it’s maintenance free. Being an old maintenance guy you got to like that."
Our well-trained sales team is on-hand to provide more information about this new innovation in protecting your personnel, equipment and facilities. Contact us today for another solution made simple.
