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
Retractalok Power Assist
Simple & Safe to Lift or Lower
Retractalok power assist eliminates heavy lifting while also addressing gangway springs failure by removing the springs altogether.
80 psi at a 25 scfm air pressure required
12-volt DC amp system 240 volt (or) 110 volt
Optional – Corrosion Resistant Package
(Pneumatic Powered Only)

What Customers Are Saying
Very fast delivery and good quality product. Spot on, responded to my email right away. Very fast delivery and good quality product.
By Rene C. from Tetra Technologies Inc
I wouldn't hesitate to deal with them again in the future. The flanged swivel connection went over big with the guys out in the plant. They no longer have to man handle the heavy hoses, and can swivel them around all day and not complain. You can't put a price on that. This item definitely will help prevent injuries, such as pulls and strains. It will also help tremendously reduce fatigue, making the process more efficient. When we are on the clock to get ships and barges loaded and unloaded, every minute saved can mean a financial windfall for the customer.
Dana and Molly could not have been more professional and pleasant to deal with. I had to return the original order due to my mistake and they bent over backwards to make sure I had everything I needed to make the order go through smoothly. They also got the correct items headed my way as soon as we realized I made a mistake on the original order. I wouldn't hesitate to deal with them again in the future, as well as recommend SafeRack to anyone.
