Truck Gangways
Safe Harbor Access Systems manufactures rugged, OSHA-compliant truck gangways designed to maximize safety and reliability during loading and unloading operations. Our SLT Series truck gangways feature self-leveling treads and universal mounting options that make them the preferred choice for facilities needing safe walkways for trucking operations. From materials handling to bulk chemical transfer, our gangways are engineered to reduce risk and streamline workflow.
Key Features of Our Truck Gangways
Our truck gangways are more than basic access solutions. Every system we build reflects our commitment to operator safety, long-term durability, and simple installation. Safe Harbor’s SLT Series includes:
- Self-Leveling Tread Design – Automatically adjusts to varying vehicle heights for a consistent walking surface.
- Spring-Assisted Operation – Reduces lifting effort and improves operator control.
- Universal Bolt-On Mounting – Allows for fast installation on nearly any existing loading platform.
- Optional Safety Cage – Provides extra protection for top-of-vehicle access.
- Manual or Pneumatic Options – Choose the system that matches your operational requirements.
- Oil-Impregnated Bronze Bushings – Self-lubricating components extend life and reduce maintenance needs.
- Custom Fit – Our widths start at 24" and can be extended to meet specific requirements. Standard widths range from 24" to 60", with configurations available from 3-step to 8-step setups.
Customize to Fit Your Site & Safety Goals
Every trucking operation is different. That’s why Safe Harbor offers fully customizable gangways to meet your platform dimensions, trailer types, and safety procedures. Unlike catalog-based providers, we design our gangways to fit your operation, not the other way around. You won’t need to modify your infrastructure to accommodate our systems.
Our team works with facility engineers and local contractors to ensure each installation meets exact requirements. From material choice to mounting type (flush, pivot, or track), we tailor your system to perform on day one.
Built with the Right Materials
Truck gangways from Safe Harbor are available in:
- Aluminum: Lightweight and corrosion-resistant, making it ideal for marine-adjacent applications.
- Galvanized Steel: Offers strength and durability, well-suited for heavy-duty industrial sites.
- Stainless Steel: Best for high-exposure environments, facilities with aggressive chemical exposure, and food-grade applications.
Every truck gangway is fabricated to deliver long-term performance with minimal maintenance requirements.
Engineered for Safer Trucking Walkways
Poorly aligned ladders, makeshift platforms, or outdated equipment create real hazards. Safe Harbor truck gangways reduce the risk of slips, falls, and impact injuries. Self-supporting designs with built-in chain stops eliminate the need to rest the gangway on a vehicle. Our solutions comply with OSHA standards and are backed by the longest warranty in the industry — three years.
Additional safety enhancements include:
- Turnbuckle-stabilized cages to prevent sagging
- Anti-slip tread surfaces
- Clear safety decals and easy-to-use controls
Installation & Ongoing Support
Safe Harbor does more than ship gangways. We collaborate with your team or local contractor to ensure the system is installed correctly the first time. For customers seeking turnkey service, we maintain a network of qualified partners experienced with Safe Harbor truck gangways. Post-installation, our customer support team is available for troubleshooting and parts replacement, and we don’t hide behind policies or fine print when support is needed.
