Pallet & Mezzanine Gate Features
Prevent Falls During Pallet Loading with Mezzanine Safety Gates
Moving pallets in busy industrial environments often introduces significant fall hazards, especially when employees are loading or unloading materials on elevated platforms. Dock and mezzanine safety gates offer a reliable solution by maintaining a physical barrier at exposed edges. This simple yet effective system helps protect workers from potential drop-offs and keeps them safely separated from height-related risks during the entire loading process.
Economical
Pallet & mezzanine gates integrate easily with both new and existing railing systems, maintaining uninterrupted fall protection while materials are transferred to or from elevated platforms.
Multiple Options
Available in a variety of layouts, these gates can be configured to accommodate different widths, depths, or spatial needs—without sacrificing the standard 6’6” head clearance.
Durable
Choose galvanized steel for rugged durability or aluminum for lightweight corrosion resistance. Both options are engineered for long term performance with minimal maintenance thanks to fewer moving components.
Compliant
Meets or exceeds all relevant North American testing standards, providing a fully compliant solution for elevated pallet drop zones and mezzanine access.
Pallet & Mezzanine Gate Configurations
Easy Maintenance
Pallet & mezzanine gates are constructed using galvanized and aluminum fittings. Due to the nature of the system, if the pallet safety gate is damaged from a forklift or general use, the individual fittings can be easily replaced. The design features a minimal number of moving parts for lower maintenance.

- I currently use chains in front of my pallet loading area. Do I still need a pallet gate?
Yes. According to OSHA’s latest fall protection updates, chains are not considered adequate protection at railing openings. This is because workers must stand near the edge to unhook and reattach them, increasing the risk of a fall. A Pallet & Mezzanine Gate offers a safer alternative by fully enclosing the opening during loading and unloading.
- Is it easy to operate the pallet & mezzanine gate?
Yes. The gate is designed with a balanced, counterweighted mechanism that allows one person to raise and lower it with minimal effort. For larger openings, choosing the aluminum option helps reduce overall weight and makes operation even smoother.
