## Safety & Fall Prevention Insights From Carbis Solutions
# Barge Gangways Create Safe Passage
The Carbis Team | Feb 13, 2012 8:05:00 AM
Gangways provide safe transit from dock to ship and back, so make sure your barge has an updated gangway with guardrails and non-slip steps for workers and visitors.
Barge gangways can be customized to fit individual docks and to work around obstructions. A ship’s access can become outdated or inadequate. That means it’s time to get a custom gangway that provides workers and visitors with safe access and egress. Barge gangways have guardrails and non-slip steps to avoid trips and falls.
Most barge gangways are crafted from marine grade aluminum for strength, durability and resistance to the elements. They are able to adjust to variations in tide and barge equipment making them quite efficient. Often you will have a choice of mounting options including float, pivot or track mounting.
