In this SafeRack gangway installation, a worker is safely closing the top hatch of a pneumatic hopper trailer at what is commonly referred to as a hatching station.

SafeRack’s gangway with an enclosing safety cage creates a secure, stable work area-allowing the operator to open and close hatches without the risk of falling. SafeRack gangways create a safe work environment for operators performing tasks at elevation, significantly reducing the risk of slips and falls. By implementing SafeRack’s safety solutions, companies reinforce their commitment to a safer workplace when loading, unloading, or venting trailers for bulk loading.
