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.

What Customers Are Saying

★★★★★

The quick delivery cannot be beat. All of my experiences with this purchase were positive. Travis McCraine was very responsive and ensured I had what I needed. The delivery was very quick and the product is exactly what I expected. The feature I liked most is the flexibility of this loading system. It's adaptive to many different truck heights, and the SafeRack team made this purchase very easy and the quick delivery cannot be beat.

By Jaydee B. from The Andersons

★★★★

Significantly more robust than the competition's. Travis usually go back to me within a day if he didn't answer his phone immediately. I like the stamped steps as opposed to welded steps. The gangway latch is significantly more robust than the competition's. The pivot points on the gangway have bushings, this is where we've seen the majority of our issues.

By Kevin S. from St. Mary’s Cement

★★★★

Very helpful and responsive. I had a very good experience with the SafeRack customer service, sales and engineering teams. They were all very helpful and responsive to all my questions and concerns. We like the high temperature capability feature of the swivel product.

By Jon C. from Tricor Refining, LLC

★★★★

Good price for high quality product! Unbelievably fast service. I had these products on order for 6 weeks from a competitor of yours and when calling to check on them, they inform me that there would be an additional 9 weeks to receive the product. You had them IN STOCK and in the material that the customer needed. The customer is in the process of installing this morning! Good price for high quality product!

Product arrived earlier than expected. Product arrived earlier than expected which helped out alot. We were able to get it installed on a down day… Access to the other side of the line has improved greatly. Operators no longer have to walk around the line to get to the other side. See more on

We're very pleased. Walter Baron was very responsive and helpful in setting up this order. The price was a great selling point. Product was delivered as promised. We're very pleased with the good workmanship, light construction and the fact that it is so easy to use. I would recommend SafeRack to anyone because it's clear that they make good products as advertised.
