Protect People, Equipment, and Your Facility
Guard rails are essential for preventing accidents and safeguarding both personnel and equipment. Cranston’s guard rails are engineered to withstand impacts and delineate safe zones within busy operations.
What Are Guard Rails Used For?
Guard rails act as strong physical barriers that prevent forklifts, and personnel from entering restricted or hazardous areas.
