SafeRack’s 2025 Products and Services

As a global leader in loading platform design and manufacturing, SafeRack delivers gangway systems that combine advanced safety features with unmatched ergonomic performance.

Tracking Gangway

Track-mounted gangways are designed to address the variability in port and compartment spacing on railcars, trucks, and vessels. These gangways slide horizontally, allowing operators to access multiple hatches or vehicles efficiently from a single platform. They feature folding stairs with safety cages, which can be positioned along a fixed track, and support multiple workers simultaneously.

  • Wing panels that move with gangways
  • Can be retrofitted to existing loading racks
  • Tracking carriages designed for easy tracking
  • No need to re-spot trucks
  • Reliable, durable, and corrosion resistant
Telescoping Ramp

The FRT (Flat Ramp Telescoping) is designed for railcar applications, featuring a slip-resistant walking surface and a telescoping extension to eliminate gaps. Models are available with telescoping top handrails when not equipped with a safety cage.

I received the order 4 days after it was placed. I received the order 4 days after it was placed. My salesperson was pretty responsive. My customer likes the Todo brand.

★★★★★

Allows operators safe access to the top of rail cars. We used to take product samples from rail cars as well as open vent hatches for unloading. This can now be done at our unloading zone as opposed to hundreds of yards down the track where our stationary stand resides. This also allows operators safe access to the top of rail cars without having to use ladders or a safety harness to tie off.

By MIke S. from Michelin North America, Inc.

★★★★★

The salesperson was very responsive. The product was delivered fast. I was concerned about the product not fitting our space, but it meets our needs and works very well. The overall experience with SafeRack was positive.
