LOADDOX-GUARD® Fall Protection for Loading Docks
Protect workers, equipment, and shipments around one of the most overlooked hazard areas in a facility. LOADDOX-GUARD® creates a highly visible physical barrier along loading dock openings while allowing normal overhead door and dock operations.
A Safer Barrier Between Your Dock and the Drop-Off
Loading docks are where trucks, forklifts, pallets, packages, and workers all operate in close proximity. An open dock edge can create a serious fall hazard, particularly when visual protection or a physical barrier is not in place.
LOADDOX-GUARD® is designed to help address these hazards by creating a highly visible physical barrier at the loading dock edge while still allowing normal dock and overhead door operations.
North American Safety Products develops loading dock safety solutions designed to enhance workplace safety programs without unnecessarily interfering with day-to-day operations.
Fall Protection Designed Around Dock Operations
LOADDOX-GUARD® is designed to protect against falls on loading docks without preventing normal overhead door and dock operations.
The system can help provide a physical separation between workers, equipment, and the open dock edge. Its visible barrier helps identify the edge of the loading area while maintaining access for everyday shipping and receiving activities.
Features That Keep Loading Docks Safer
LOADDOX-GUARD® combines heavy-duty construction with a flexible configuration designed to work within active loading and unloading environments.
200 lb Load Bearing
The LOADDOX-GUARD® system is designed with a 200 lb load-bearing capacity for demanding loading dock environments.
Heavy-Duty Construction
Constructed from heavy-duty aluminum and steel for strength and long-term reliability in industrial environments.
No End Pinch Points
The system is designed without end pinch points, helping improve safety around the expandable barrier.
Low Guard Area
LOADDOX-GUARD® maintains a low guard area when expanded while providing a clear physical barrier at the dock edge.
High-Gloss Powder Coat
A high-gloss powder-coated finish provides a durable surface suitable for industrial applications.
Custom Colors
Customizable color options are available to accommodate OSHA standards, DOT requirements, and facility preferences.
Loading Dock & Industrial Applications
LOADDOX-GUARD® can be used for both fall protection and securing loads across warehouses, construction sites, and industrial facilities.
Warehousing & Storage
Help protect workers while securing palletized and stacked goods so products are less likely to shift, tip, or sustain damage.
Construction Sites
Help secure materials and equipment including lumber, piping, scaffolding, and heavy equipment during storage and transport.
Industrial Facilities
Secure drums, pallets, containers, machinery, and other loads in storage areas and industrial work environments.
Protect People Without Hindering Dock Operations
A loading dock needs to remain functional. Trucks have to arrive, overhead doors need to operate, forklifts need room to move, and workers need access to shipments.
LOADDOX-GUARD® is designed around those operational requirements. The expandable barrier helps establish a visible and physical boundary at the dock edge while allowing normal dock activities to continue.
Choose the Size That Fits Your Dock
Standard sizes cover common loading dock configurations, while custom widths are also available.
