TRAILER STANDS – SAFETY HAS A LEG TO STAND ON

WHAT’S THE RISK?

When ‘spotted’ on landing gear, for loading and unloading, transport trailers present a critical safety risk. Stressed by the combined weight of cargo and forklifts, trailers can up-end, or landing gear can collapse, creating potentially devastating situations for workers caught within. Trailer stability is aff ected by a complex relationship involving number of axles, trailer weight, landing gear placement, weight and placement of cargo, weight and position of forklift and more.
Understanding the load and stability ratings of all the different equipment in the marketplace is beyond the training of most forklift drivers, making every trip into the nose of the trailer a gamble.

THE IRONguard™ SOLUTION

When the cab disengages from the trailer, the trailer is at risk of collapse unless a secondary support system is utilized. For strength and support, IRONguardTM’s line up of portable Trailer Stands can be easily placed under a trailer’s front end to help prevent mishap and tragedy.

Strength in numbers. Four strong options.

AUTOSTAND PLUS – BEST OPTION FOR A BUSY LOADING DOCK ENVIRONMENT
With it’s broad, stable platform and ergonomic design, the AutoStand Plus is engineered to shoulder the weight and stresses of on/off loading in heavy-duty loading dock environments. AutoStand Plus can be positioned in seconds, instantly creating a stronger, more stable loading environment.

TWO-POST TRAILER STAND – TWO POINTS OF SUPPORT
The IRONguard™ exclusive Two-Post Trailer Stand does what no single post solution can do. With twin, weight-bearing posts; one positioned on either side of the trailer, the Two-Post Trailer Stand helps eliminate
