What Customers Are Saying
I wouldn't hesitate to deal with them again in the future. The flanged swivel connection went over big with the guys out in the plant. They no longer have to man handle the heavy hoses, and can swivel them around all day and not complain. You can't put a price on that. This item definitely will help prevent injuries, such as pulls and strains. It will also help tremendously reduce fatigue, making the process more efficient. When we are on the clock to get ships and barges loaded and unloaded, every minute saved can mean a financial windfall for the customer.
Dana and Molly could not have been more professional and pleasant to deal with. I had to return the original order due to my mistake and they bent over backwards to make sure I had everything I needed to make the order go through smoothly. They also got the correct items headed my way as soon as we realized I made a mistake on the original order. I wouldn't hesitate to deal with them again in the future, as well as recommend SafeRack to anyone.

Thank you for your fast service. Our main concerns here are safety and reliability. The gangways have proven to be the safest option for gaining access to the rail cars. The units have been very dependable, including one unit that is over 15 years old, and they were innovative. Due to difficulty placing all the tankers, SafeRack incorporated two of the gangways on a sliding track allowing for much needed adjustment.

Cost effective, great appearance, easy to assemble. 1. Cost effective for large area need where design would require structures needed vs. contractor building on site 2. Appearance and design is already safety-oriented to meet code 3. Structure is made to accommodate ease of assembly and access without fatal redesign cost, with prompt delivery and no issues.
