Industrial lift truck accidents are a common and costly occurrence. OSHA estimates that there are 68,400 accidents each year, involving powered industrial trucks. Approximately 90,000 workers suffer some type of injuries in these accidents, resulting in lost work time, workers' compensation claims, and productivity losses - not to mention the damage inflicted upon equipment and facilities. About 100 people lose their lives each year in these accidents. Steel King's "Steel Guard" protective railing system is a cost-effective barrier against the effects of such accidents. Typical applications include loading docks, workstations, compressors, pallet rack aisle ends and around in-plant offices.
"Steel Guard" is specifically designed for fork truck protection. Steel Guard is constructed of heavy corrugated steel rails, mounted to structural steel columns, that absorb the impact exerted by fork trucks or other mobile equipment. "Steel Guard" is prefabricated, eliminating all on site core drilling, cutting, welding, or painting. |

Forklift damage is the biggest factor in 90% of rack failures. Column Core’s unique double C-shaped column reinforcement takes a rack that’s already 2-1/2 times more impact resistant than open-back uprights and doubles it.
