Gangway Options
Track Mounted Gangways
Not all railcars, trucks, or cargo vessels are made the same.
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
SavkoLock Mechanical Safety Lockdown
Engineered for the toughest conditions, even in the coldest environments
SavkoLock automatically locks your gangway in the lowered (deployed) position once it rests on the vehicle. While the gangway is locked down, it cannot be lifted, shifted, or adjusted—keeping the safety cage securely in place over the worker.

What Customers Are Saying
Every aspect of this purchase has been positive. We purchased an identical one 2 months ago so we already knew exactly what we were getting… SafeRack's product is built sturdier and it's easier to use. It was delivered in under two weeks, every aspect of this purchase has been positive.
By Harry R. from Polychemie Inc.
I would recommend SafeRack to anyone because of their pricing, quality, responsiveness and so much more. Price was competitive. Product was easy to install and required no re-work on our part for installation. Equipment was easy to operate and maintain. I would recommend the product based on your team's technical ability, pricing, robust designs, and meeting your delivery dates. SafeRack is an extremely responsive company who delivers on the promises. I worked with David Daniel on this project. He was extremely responsive and delivered on cost, schedule, product quality. Pricing was great. I had no issue getting in touch with him. He made himself available on his day off as well. I had no surprises which, as project manager, are critical to successfully delivering projects.
By Xudong H. from Large Refinery in Louisiana
Dana is one the most wonderful salespeople I have ever dealt with. My gangway was delivered on the date requested. As a result of buying our gangway through SafeRack, we saved money and received wonderful responses in confirmations and follow ups. These are easily installed and replaced gangways. Dana is one the most wonderful salespeople I have ever dealt with in my 9 years in this position. The dates given for shipment and receiving are always on time and I am given updates throughout the entire process. Three benefits are dealing with SafeRack employees, getting a great gangway, and knowing any questions I have will be answered quickly as not to hold up any order.
By Michelle M. from Buzzi Unicem
Very satisfied. Bryce does an awesome job. SafeRack is the only gangway system we sell.
By Jim M. from Macs Supply
This product is easy to set up, move, and change. This product is easy to set up, move, and change to a different configuration if needed… stability, interchangeable, light weight.
By Marty D. from MarkWest Liberty Midstream
Always a positive experience. Price is good. Outstanding delivery time. If it wasn't in stock for immediate delivery, I would have gone to another supplier. SafeRack had the item ready to go. My salesman John Nance is very efficient and responds almost immediately. This product improves safety for my staff, cutting down their time moving around the yard. This product is weather protected, with no maintenance, plus saves cost on designing, engineering and building in-house. Always a positive experience. Price is good.
