Gangways
A gangway is a platform or walkway that is engineered to provide safe access between a tower or platform and a truck, boat, railcar, or another type of platform. Safe Harbor’s OSHA-standard access gangways are designed for a wide range of heights and variances. Gangways can be retrofitted to your existing structure and customized to suit your specific application; which is excellent for older platforms that were not designed for today’s taller railcars.
