Advantages of the EDGE Self-Closing Safety Gate
Construction
Everything at EDGE Fall Protection, LLC, starts with material quality. All our products, including our EDGE safety gates are constructed of high quality material that is sourced and manufacturer in the USA. With options including powder coated safety yellow mild steel, hot-dipped galvanized mild steel, aluminium, 304 stainless steel, or 316 stainless steel safety gates, we have the right type of material to suit any need whether it be general industry or an extremely corrosive environment.
The self-closing feature of the EDGE Self-Closing Safety Gate is one of the most important aspects to our construction gate. This ensures that, after every use, our gate shuts in place to eliminate the hazard. Unlike placing a chain over an access point that can be forgotten to be put back in place, our durable stainless-steel springs shut the gate every time.
Installation
Providing a safe work environment can sometimes be difficult and time intensive. The EDGE Self-Closing Safety Gate was designed with simplicity and effectiveness in mind. Our gate quickly mounts to 2” round pipe or 1.5” x 1.5” square tubing via U-bolts or can be mounted directly to flat iron, angle iron, or wall mounted with fasteners. This allows for standardization across facilities or job sites, and installation times of just 20 minutes.
Testing
EDGE Fall Protection, LLC, only provides products that meet certain testing requirements. Every product we manufacture will meet or exceed OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) requirements requiring a concentrated load test of 200 pounds (90.7 Kilograms). In addition, all guardrail systems and self-closing safety gates have a top rail at 42 inches (106 cm) and a mid-rail at 21” (53 cm) from the working surface.
Duty to Protect
While every individual must be responsible for his or her own safety, it is the employer’s responsibility to ensure that they create a workplace that allows employees to complete their work in the safest and most effective manner possible. Simple and cost-effective solutions to safety exist all over the workplace, and the EDGE Self-Closing Industrial Safety gate is one such solution to protect the most valuable asset on the jobsite, the employee.
