SELF-CLOSING SAFETY GATE PROVIDES ROOF EDGE
PROTECTION Safesite, a supplier of fall protection solutions, has introduced Kee Gate, a range of self-closing safety gates for use during work at height.
Designed to work on ladders, roof hatches, walkways, and with edge protection and plant machinery, Kee Gate ensures maintenance and inspection staff can fulfil their job, follow best practices and comply with current safety standards, without putting their safety at risk.
Kee Gates are spring loaded so they automatically close behind the user, overcoming the potential for human error. This type of system is the preferred solution to chains, bars or sliding tubes, as these traditional forms of protection can lead to a hazardous void when used incorrectly.

These injuries can often be prevented by the use of the correct hand protection. However, with so many different types on the market, it can be difficult to understand and specify the correct type of glove for your application.
With this in mind, Arco developed a range to offer mechanical protection with a visual indicator of the level of cut protection offered. The Arco Cut Control System makes it possible to see instantly what level of cut protection is being worn. Having a number on the glove also removes any confusion as different brands have alternative colours for the different levels of protection.
Arco’s Cut Control System has been designed to meet the highest standards. Tested and approved to meet EN 388:2003 and ISO 13997, the
edge protection systems, Kee Gate is 1 metre wide. Designed to be trimmed on-site, this solution saves companies the time and money it takes to fabricate their own gates.
The system has undergone extensive testing to ensure total reliability. Kee Gate is compliant with the requirements of EN 13374 Class A, EN ISO 14122 Part 3 & Part 4 and is CE marked to EN 1090.
