Track Mounted Gangways
Track-mounted gangways that can be moved horizontally so workers can safely access truck and railcar hatches without repositioning the vehicle.
SafeRack’s truck and railcar track mounted gangways are trusted worldwide for providing secure, efficient access during loading and unloading operations.
Track Mounted Gangways
The #1 Selling Gangway in North America
As a global leader in loading platform design and manufacturing, SafeRack delivers gangway systems that combine advanced safety features with unmatched ergonomic performance.

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.

- Can be retrofitted to existing loading racks
- Tracking carriages designed for easy tracking
- No need to re-spot trucks
- Reliable, durable, and corrosion resistant

The SafeRack team went above and beyond even after the sale. I wanted to drop you a line in regards to a new railcar access structure Croda purchased from Saferack. In my 25 years as a chemical engineer I have purchased numerous racks and fall protection equipment from a number of suppliers. By far, with no exception, have I ever dealt with a more professional customer oriented company than yours. Ray Evans and Charles Phillips spent much time convincing me to purchase(both equipment and installation) from Saferack. Unlike most sales people, they did not forget about me after winning the order. They, as well as your design team,endured several revisions driven by me and in the end we came up with a great design. Linda Hardee has been the most responsive customer service person I have ever worked with. She has worked very hard to provide me everything I have needed. Whenever I needed data, drawings, schedules, contractor approvals, insurances, permits, etc – a reply from her was always very prompt. Last, but not least, I need to praise the installation team. I was a little concerned when only two old guys, Richard Hester and David Gunny Smith showed up on site to install this big structure. These two gentlemen methodically erected this structure, efficiently, safely, and in 90 degree weather to boot. In my 25 years of construction, I have never seen more knowledgable, trained, properly documented, and safety conscious personnel than Richard and Gunny. With the folks you have on board I have no doubt your company has a bright future. If I am in a position to make future purchases in this industry, I know who I am going to call. Thank you for a great product and exceptional service.

Safety, convenience, and affordability are the major benefits of this product. John Edwards is great, answering my phone calls and questions. Safety, convenience, and affordability are the major benefits of this product. It is the safest way to get on top of a truck. We have purchased several for our company.

I would recommend the product and consider SafeRack again. The product is simple, clean, and sturdy. I would recommend the product and consider SafeRack again should a project require a loading dock system.

Results have been excellent. No complaints. I expected a 8-12 week delivery – It arrived in 6 weeks! Chris Hite has been extremely patient and helpful. No surprises in the product quality. I have designed 7 unloading stations in the last three years. Results have been excellent. No complaints.
