Self-closing gates

07 September 2015

Kee Systems supplies a range of spring loaded self-closing safety gates – Kee Gate – as part of its product portfolio which provides industrial workers with a safety solution when working on ground level.


Designed to work both internally and externally, Kee Gates are particularly suited to areas such as providing safe access and egress around machinery and electrical equipment, on access platforms, step overs, stairways and ladders or as part of a demarcated route within a loading bay or warehouse. Kee Gate ensures maintenance, inspection and warehouse staff can fulfil their job, follow best practices and comply with current safety standards, without putting their safety at risk

 

Kee Gates are spring loaded so can automatically close behind the user, providing an added level of security and overcoming the potential for human error.  This type of system is the preferred solution to chains, bars or sliding tubes, as these traditional forms of protection can lead to a hazardous void, when used incorrectly. 


The self-closing safety gates are available in galvanised steel and if required can be powder coated in safety yellow. The safety gate is available with standard 'U' bolts for fixing to uprights of 33.7, 42.4 and 48.3 mm diameter, enabling the gate to be fixed quickly to existing supporting structures, posts or stringers. An additional fixing pack is provided which allows the gate to be fixed to square, flat or angle uprights. Easy to install on all types of handrails or to retro-fit existing structures, such as work and access platforms, Kee Gate is 1m wide. Designed to be trimmed on-site, this solution saves companies the time and money it takes to fabricate their own gates. 


Kee Gate is compliant with the requirements of EN ISO 14122 Part 3 and Part 4, EN 13374 Class A, and is CE marked to EN 1090.
