Forklift & Equipment Safety Training

Are all of your forklift operators up-to-date on their latest safety training and certifications? If not, it’s time to schedule a training session. Remember, OSHA requires that anyone operating a forklift has safety training at least once every three years. You should also have them retrain if there are any close calls or reported incidents. 

We’ve designed our training courses with your needs in mind.

Warehouse Safety Equipment

We carry common warehouse safety equipment, like guard rails, post protectors, and impact detection systems. 

Post protectors: These shield the base of your pallet racking system from repeated collisions with forklifts and other equipment. Since it’s a vulnerable area that gets a lot of damage, post protectors offer extra reinforcement.

Guard rails and bollards: Guide people where they’re supposed to go and prevent them from tripping and falling. Remember, you’re required to block off areas where someone could fall 4 feet or more. 

Collision detection system: Magnetic field technology detects when a forklift is going to hit something. You can also use this technology to track how operators are using your forklifts. If they’re speeding, you’ll receive an alert.
