Think your facility is safe enough? Without proper gate protection at every elevation change, you might be one misstep away from disaster.
Falls remain a leading cause of workplace injury, especially around ladders, platforms, and transitional pathways. Secure Gates from Arnco Equipment are engineered to close that safety gap with fast-install, OSHA-compliant solutions that help protect your team and keep operations moving.
Why Safety Gates Matter in Industrial Facilities
In any industrial setting, safety isn’t just about compliance—it’s about culture, accountability, and smart prevention. Ladder and Platform Safety Gates serve as critical visual and physical barriers that:
- Signal transitions in elevation
- Prevent unauthorized access to dangerous areas
- Protect operators during ascent and descent
- Eliminate trip hazards at ladder openings
Whether you’re managing a grain handling operation, manufacturing plant, or railcar facility, Secure Gates are a frontline defense against workplace injury.
Built to Exceed OSHA Standards
Secure Gates aren’t just convenient; they’re code-compliant and designed to meet:
- OSHA 1910.28(b)(3)(iv) for fall protection at ladder openings
- OSHA 1910.29(b)(13)(i) for safety gate installation
You get peace of mind knowing you’re not only protecting your workforce but also minimizing regulatory risk.
Ladder and Platform Safety Gates Installation
Time is money. That’s why our Secure Gates are designed for universal mounting and quick installation using basic tools so you don’t have to worry about welding, specialty hardware, or downtime.
Plus, all of our Ladder and Platform Safety Gates are compatible with Flat iron, Angle iron, Square tubing, Round handrails (with separate kit), and wood or concrete posts. Since each gate is spring-loaded with a self-closing hinge, it ensures the gate will close behind every pass-through leading to less human error, more consistent safety.
One Gate, Many Openings: Adjustable Size Options
One of the biggest advantages of Arnco’s Secure Gates is the adjustable two-piece design that fits a wide range of openings:
Small Ladder & Platform Gate (14”–21”)

Medium Ladder & Platform Gate (21”–32”)
- Perfect for standard industrial access points
- Our most commonly installed model
Large Ladder & Platform Gate (32”–48”)
- Covers wide or custom access openings

No need to measure every gate opening and order custom builds. These adjustable gates cover most facility needs with one product line.
Built Tough for Industrial Environments
Every Secure Gate is made with durability in mind. Choose from:
- Safety Yellow Powder-Coated Steel for visibility and corrosion resistance
- Stainless Steel Options for food-grade or harsh environments
Their rugged construction ensures years of reliable performance, even in the most demanding industrial settings.
4-Step Installation in Minutes, Safety for Years
Installing Secure Gates is as easy as it gets:
- Identify your mounting surface
- Use a drill, tech screws, and a few hand tools
- Flip for left or right-hand orientation
