Forklift Safety Cage / Work Platform: Ensuring Safety and Compliance

In many industrial environments, the use of forklifts is essential for lifting and transporting heavy loads. However, forklifts are not only used for moving goods, they are also frequently used as platforms for workers to perform tasks at height. This is where the Forklift Safety Cage / Work Platform becomes an indispensable piece of equipment. Designed to meet Australian Standards AS 2359-1, this safety cage provides a secure and compliant solution for workers to safely operate at elevated heights.

Why Forklift Safety Cages are Essential

When workers are required to work at height in a warehouse or industrial setting, the use of a Forklift Safety Cage is crucial. Working from a forklift without the proper safety equipment can lead to serious accidents, including falls or being struck by objects. A safety cage provides a secure environment where workers can carry out tasks such as maintenance, repairs, or stocktaking, all while being protected from falls or other hazards.

Not only does it ensure worker safety, but the use of a forklift cage also complies with Australian workplace safety regulations, which mandate that any elevated work be carried out with appropriate fall protection.

Key Features of the Forklift Safety Cage

1. Meets Australian Standards (AS 2359-1)

The Forklift Safety Cage is built to comply with the Australian Standard AS 2359-1, which governs the design and safe use of elevating work platforms and forklift safety cages. This standard ensures that the cage is strong, stable, and secure enough to withstand the conditions of industrial work. By using a safety cage that adheres to this standard, employers can be confident that they are providing a safe working environment for their staff.

2. Heavy-Duty Zinc Plated Finish

The safety cage is coated with a zinc-plated finish, providing enhanced durability and resistance to corrosion. This makes the cage suitable for use in harsh industrial environments, where exposure to moisture, dust, and chemicals is common. The robust finish ensures the longevity of the product, making it a reliable tool for years to come.

3. Designed for Two Workers (250kg Max Capacity)

The Forklift Safety Cage is designed to carry up to two workers, with a maximum load capacity of 250kg. This makes it ideal for small teams of workers who need to perform tasks at height. The ample space inside the cage ensures that workers can move around comfortably while completing their tasks, without compromising safety.

4. Safety Features for Peace of Mind

The cage comes equipped with several important safety features, including:

  • Mesh safety screen: Protects workers from falling objects.

  • Toe boards on all sides: Prevents tools or materials from accidentally falling out of the cage.

  • Skid-resistant floor plate: Offers better grip to ensure workers stay safe while inside the cage.

  • Inward-opening, self-closing door: Prevents accidental falls by ensuring the door cannot open while the cage is in use.

  • Internal handrail with safety loops: Provides additional fall protection, allowing workers to secure their safety harnesses to the cage’s handrails for added security.

5. Full-Length Fork Sleeves and Locking Mechanism

The Forklift Safety Cage comes with full-length fork sleeves that are designed to fit most forklifts. This allows the cage to be securely attached to the forklift, providing a stable platform for workers. The cage is also supplied with two locking pins and bars that lock the cage onto the forklift tines, ensuring that it remains firmly in place during use.

6. Tool Tray for Added Convenience

The Forklift Safety Cage comes with a built-in tool tray, which is perfect for keeping tools and equipment close at hand while working at height. This reduces the need for workers to climb in and out of the cage to retrieve tools, improving efficiency and safety.

7. Easy to Transport and Store

The forklift safety cage is supplied as a flatpack, making it easy to store and transport. For those who prefer a pre-assembled cage, assembly can be requested at the time of purchase. The ability to store the cage in a compact form ensures it won’t take up valuable space when not in use.
