Forklift Bridge

Engineered Solutions for Safe Forklift Transportation

In fast-paced industrial environments, physical obstacles such as ditches, waterways, and uneven topography can pose significant threats to productivity. When a forklift needs to navigate around a gap, it can cost your operation both work hours and fuel. SafeRack’s forklift bridge offers a direct, engineered solution to these challenges, creating a safe passage for heavy equipment and personnel. SafeRack’s Model COB can eliminate these bottlenecks, ensuring that your material handling workflows remain uninterrupted.

Common Uses for Forklift Bridges in Loading and Warehouse Areas

The versatility of SafeRack forklift bridge systems can span many types of hurdles in your loading dock and warehouse operations. Common uses include:

• Stable passage over gaps in your facility’s layout
• Creating a level surface over spur tracks to prevent tire damage and load instability
• Spanning over exposed piping, cables, or drainage ditches that run through high-traffic zones
• Providing temporary or permanent access to active construction or maintenance pits within a facility

Site-Specific Forklift Bridge Systems

Forklift bridge systems are designed for permanent or semi-permanent installation over specific obstacles. Every SafeRack forklift bridge system is site-specific and engineered to solve the exact issue in your facility. Some features, options, and accessories that our Model COB offer include:

• Capacity: Standard capacities range from 16,000 lbs to 30,000 lbs, accommodating heavy-duty forklift operations.
• Durable construction: Each forklift bridge is constructed with welded steel that can withstand daily heavy use for years.
