LSG Ladder Safety Gates are self-closing swing gates that are OSHA and ANSI-compliant and adjust to fit your opening size. They are a great way to protect ladderways, mezzanines, elevated platforms, or anywhere there is an opening in your guardrails. Many of our customers are replacing their old chains that were used to ‘protect’ openings with these gates, which meet the loading requirements for passive fall protection.
Recently, one of the most popular products, the EdgeHalt Ladder Safety Gate, was improved with some great upgrades, making this very popular product even better. Some of the highlights include:
Assembly is very quick and easy, the only tool required is a ½" wrench. Gates come fully assembled, including standard mounting hardware for up to 2" OD pipe and square tubing 1.5"x1.5" OD. The gate can be bolted directly to an angle iron, flat bar, or non-standard railing (fasteners not included).
