The G-Series self-closing safety gate from FabEnCo by Tractel is ideal for fall protection, machine guarding, access control, pedestrian traffic management, and security.
The most common application for FabEnCo self-closing safety gates is fall protection on an elevated work platform with an unprotected opening, such as a ladderway or stair opening, as required by OSHA regulations under 29 §CFR 1910.23 - Guarding Floor and Wall Openings and Holes.
FabEnCo’s standard safety gate models are tested to meet and exceed OSHA’s 200 pounds top rail pressure requirement. OSHA-compliant swing gates reduce the risk of falls and fall-related injuries in elevated areas, stairways, and loading docks.
All gates are furnished with sealed, welded endcaps.
This series of FabEnCo Safety Gates is available in carbon steel and stainless steel for special applications and environments. FabEnCoat finishes include galvanized and environmentally-friendly safety yellow powder coated options. Requires a striking post to close.
Determining the proper gate size for your application only requires the measurement of the inside clear opening.
The hot-dipped galvanizing process creates a corrosion resistant-surface with protection that becomes part of the metal. A scratch will be thoroughly protected by the zinc within the metal.

The powder coating process applies a base layer of a baked-on zinc-rich epoxy followed by the yellow baked-on powder coat. A scratch to the coating will not degrade the protection beneath.
