ONE-STOP PROVIDER OF ACCESS SYSTEM SOLUTIONS 

Fall Protection & Safe Access to Any Railcar

Every Safe Harbor loading system is designed with safety in mind. Our railcar fall protection systems offer safe, efficient access for operators and handlers by including features such as customizable safety cages, grab bars, side rails, and full safety enclosures for railcar fall protection.

Our systems give operators the flexibility that they need to load and unload railcars while giving you peace-of-mind knowing that you are providing a safe working environment.

MULTIPLE HATCH RAILCAR FALL PROTECTION

Multi hatch, multiple railcar loading platforms include many of the features of our single hatch railcar loading platforms listed above. However, Safe Harbor provides custom options to multi-hatch railcar fall protection systems including:

  • Self-closing swing gates
  • Snap chain openings
  • Tracking handrails

Safe Habor also has the capability of retrofitting/converting an existing fixed mount gangway to a tracking gangway (through the use of a Safe Harbor modular base tread that can be converted from a fixed mount to a pivot mount/tracking gangway).

We can configure multiple hatch systems for top loading hoses or bottom loading hoses, depending on your requirements. By simultaneously accessing multiple hatches with our system, railcars can be loaded or unloaded that much faster, saving time and cost. Virtually unlimited size platforms, safety cages, and safety platforms are also optional.
