Ramps & Cable Protection
Cable & Hose Protection Systems
There are three key types of ramp that we provide, these are summarized below;
Cable Protection Ramps
These are primarily designed to protect cables and hoses from loads passing over them, They produced by Checkers® and include Linebacker®, Grip Guard® and Guard Dog® brands
Curb Ramps
These are used to provide access for either vehicles or pedestrians (including wheelchairs) to curbs or ledges. The black curb access ramps offer a hose protection channel as a secondary function .
Speed Bumps
These serve the purpose of slowing traffic down, again they have a secondary function of offering cable protection if needed.
Dedicated Cable Protection In Detail
Wherever cables or hoses have to cross a roadway or pedestrian area it is essential that they are sufficiently protected to prevent damage and crushing from passing traffic, it is also important that they do not become a trip hazard for passing pedestrians.
Our extensive range of cable and hose protection ramps from Checkers Industrial Safety Products® means that any utilities and cables on your site will never again be left unprotected.
There are several grades of cable protection available, including those designed to deal with heavy mining equipment such as the Extreme Crossover Pads, and those that are more suited to dealing with mostly pedestrian traffic such as the YELLOW JACKET®.
