Occupational Health & Safety issues, state and federal workplace safety requirements have placed a priority on safe work practices in industry and business.

Watergate

The Watergate Safety Gate was developed to provide a fail-safe fall protection system for sites where forklifts load materials onto raised platforms or mezzanine floors.

How Watergate works

Watergate in the loading position
The liquid ballast ensures the gate remains in the loading position. Worker are protected from the mezzanine areas and loading dangers by the Watergate barrier. Loading height is industry standard 2.2m.

Watergate in the pivot position
By simply lifting the Watergate barrier, ballast is transferred to the opposing gate. Watergate then descends to the opposite position without any further aid. Watergate cannot be left in an unlocked position.

Watergate in the unload position
Watergate now provides a safety barrier in the loading zone, but allows for safe unloading and access to the area.

It provides a loading environment that is safe, well structured and easily managed. Once installed the Watergate provides a permanently fixed safety barrier system that can easily be switched from the open or closed position in seconds.
