With fall protection being an important issue in the warehousing industry, the Dual Chain offers facilities a low-cost safety option that’s designed to comply with the necessary OSHA standards. Consisting of two high visibility yellow security chains made of powder-coated steel, the Dual Chain is anchored in aluminum rings from opposite sides of the loading dock door frame. The chains are then stretched across the loading dock and secured into their corresponding receivers by pre-attached turnbuckles. This product is manually operated and comes in lengths that accommodate door sizes of 8’, 9’ and 10’. “Some of the largest changes to OSHA’s fall protection guidelines came in 2017 and we’ve seen that carry into 2018,” states APS Resource Aftermarket Sales Manager Mark Smith. “The Dual Chain is an easy to use, easy to install barrier made to help protect workers in a loading dock environment.” With product solutions like the Dual Chain, workers can have the peace of mind that they’re being protected by products that meet the proper safety requirements.
