When it comes to keeping your team safe on site, the loading bay gate front stands out as a reliable choice for any scaffolding setup. This isn’t just another gate; it’s engineered for real-world use in busy construction zones where loading bays are in constant use. Whether you’re hoisting materials to high heights or ensuring workers have secure access, this fixed front gate combines strength, visibility, and ease of use to minimise risks without slowing your workflow. As part of the Stay-Safe range, it’s universal and fits seamlessly with existing gate arms. Customers love how it balances heavy-duty performance with straightforward installation, making it a go-to for contractors who prioritise safety and efficiency. We’ve designed it with input from industry pros, so you get a product that’s tough, compliant, and ready to handle the daily grind.
Here’s a breakdown of what makes the gate tick. We’ve focused on the key specs that matter most to you, like build quality and fit.
Feature | Details |
Frame Material | Fully welded steel square hollow section (SHS) for maximum strength and rigidity. |
Mesh | 10g weld mesh, stitch-welded to the frame for double-layered protection and clear visibility. |
Toe-Board | Integrated kicker-plates with double-folded edges to stop slips and falls of small items. |
Dimensions | Fixed widths: 2.2m, 3m, 4m; Height: 2.185m; Loading depth: 1.5m (compatible with standard arms). |
Weight | Approximately 18-21kg per arm (the gate front adds minimal extra weight for easy handling). |
Finish | Powder coat for weather resistance and longevity. |
Sustainability | Modular design allows individual parts to be replaced, extending product life and reducing waste. |
These specs ensure the gate isn’t just compliant but also practical for everyday use, helping you avoid costly downtime.
This loading bay gate shines in scenarios where safety meets high-traffic loading. It’s ideal for:
Users pair it with heavy-duty gate arms for a complete setup, making it versatile for both temporary and semi-permanent installations.
Safety is at the heart of the loading bay gate. It fully meets TG20:13 guidelines for tube-and-fitting scaffolds, which cover structural integrity and load-bearing in the UK construction industry. Additionally, it complies with BS EN 13374 for temporary edge protection systems, ensuring it withstands impacts and prevents falls from height. The toeboard feature adds an extra layer of protection against dropped objects, a common hazard on sites. We’ve rigorously tested it to withstand real-world stresses, and its durable coating protects against rust, keeping it safe over time. For customers, this means fewer inspections and more confidence. it’s built to keep your crew protected while you focus on the job.
Unlike basic models, our gate includes toeboard kicker plates as standard, plus heavy-duty mesh for better protection.
It’s straightforward; all you need to do is attach it to compatible gate arms using the welded fittings. No special tools needed, and it fits most tube-and-fitting systems. We recommend a two-person lift for safety.
Yes, the powder-coated finish resists corrosion, and the steel construction holds up in rain or wind. Just ensure regular checks in accordance with site protocols.
Up to 2500kg, depending on your signage and setup.
Its repairable design means you can swap out parts instead of replacing the whole unit, cutting down on waste and costs over time. It’s a smart choice for eco-conscious projects.
These gates are designed with site logistics in mind. Each gate front weighs approximately 21kg, making it manageable for one or two people to carry short distances without specialist lifting gear. They can be stored flat or vertically against a wall or racking system, taking up minimal yard space. The robust powder-coated steel frame resists knocks and scrapes during transit, and the integrated fittings mean no loose parts to lose. Many customers transport them on standard site trailers, flatbed trucks, or even inside vans when bundled with gate arms. For longer-term storage, keep them undercover or in a dry area to maintain the coating’s condition and avoid surface rust. Overall, it’s built to be as practical to move and store as it is to install, helping keep your site tidy and your equipment ready for the next job..
