STRAIGHT TRUSS GANGWAYS
Safe Harbor is the leading manufacturer of custom marine equipment, including aluminum truss gangways and straight truss gangways, for a wide range of applications.
Truss gangways are used to facilitate loading and unloading of cargo from ships and offshore platforms. They must accommodate the size and load of the cargo while providing safe secure footing for personnel and the equipment used to move the cargo.
In addition, the gangways need to provide safe passage in both high and low tides and when the ships are full and riding low in the water, or empty of cargo and riding high.
Custom Truss Gangway Design
Safe Harbor’s engineers have the experience and application knowledge to design an aluminum truss gangway that will meet your cargo requirements and safely adjust to the varying levels of the water and the ship throughout loading and unloading. We specialize in custom designs and have the capabilities to design and manufacture your truss gangway to meet your deadline and budget.
