Unknown - Standard Pallet Gate

• Providing a safe access point for forklifts or pallet trucks to load and unload materials from mezzanines or elevated platforms.
• Ensuring worker safety by creating a secure barrier when no pallet is present at the opening.
• Facilitating the transfer of ingredients, packaging, or finished goods between different levels in a food processing facility.
• Integrating into existing bulk handling systems to manage material flow in multi-level operations.

Typical Pallet Size Accommodation

Designed to accommodate standard UK and Euro pallets, typically up to 1200mm x 1000mm.

Construction Material

Commonly constructed from mild steel, often powder-coated, or stainless steel for food-grade environments.

Operation Type

Typically a manual operation, where the gate is physically moved by an operator.

Mounting

Designed for floor or structural mounting on mezzanines or elevated platforms.

Safety Features

Incorporates a counterbalanced or interlocked design to ensure one side is always closed.

Footprint

Requires sufficient clear space around the opening for safe operation and pallet manoeuvring.
