Track-Mounted Loading Platforms and Gangways

Easy Hatch Spotting

Safe Access to multiple hatches, No Matter The Spot
With SafeRack’s track-mounted gangways, and fall protection systems, inconsistencies in truck and railcar hatches are no longer an issue. A track-mounted gangway slides horizontally along the platform, allowing workers to safely and easily access to hatches without repositioning vehicle.

Improved Efficiency, Uncompromised Safety
SafeRack’s track-mounted loading gangways give operators the flexibility they need to spot vehicles of all types and sizes. This means you’ll speed up your loading or unloading time. And that means you’ll cut costs and increase your overall productivity as a company.

Plus, our track-mounted gangways are built with all the same safety mechanisms as our standard gangways. Our railcar fall protection systems are equipped with a safety cage and a durable, long-lasting design, you can trust your operators will have a secure working environment—today and tomorrow.

The Difference Our Experts Make

We begin every loading rank project with a visit to the site. We do this to understand firsthand our customers’ goals and challenges. We then visit the location where loading will take place to take measurements and formulate ideas. Using cutting-edge, 3D configurator technology, these ideas can be visualized and easily shared with our customers on the spot. Modifications and improvements can be made on-site, as well.

It’s a collaborative process that includes the transporters, as everything about the rail cars they’ll be loading at the site is incorporated into the ultimate solution. And it’s this attention to detail that ensures successful projects (and happy customers).

Truck spotting with Kenny and Ray - The Podcast

A podcast about truck spotting and why it’s important. A lot of times in the cement and aggregate world, we see a lot of trucks coming through. It could be as little as 25 trucks a day, but it could be up to 300-350, depending upon the type of industry. Frac sand can see up to 500-600 trucks a day when it’s really busy. That creates safety issues, the more throughput that you see, the more chances for people to fall. And that really puts a big strain on the facility and designing a safe system for bulk loading…

Absolutely no negative responses on my parts.

The product was delivered the same day – very fast response. This quick response allows me to not carry more than one spare for 6 spaces. No hassle ordering process. Timely shipping and follow up. I would recommend your products. I have been through this process with three of your competitors with no comparison to match. Absolutely no negative responses on my parts. I have one rail multi-position gangway and now three single space gangways. Any additions in the future, including replacing three Carbis units, will be SafeRack.
