SAFE-T-SUPPORT’S OVERHEAD DOOR SAFETY DEVICES
Workplace safety is a critical component of owning or running a business. Far too often, the amount of care and attention put into implementing safety measures for the workplace, particularly in warehouses or garages, is not up to par. Without crucial overhead door safety devices, your business could be at risk of adding to the 20,000 people who suffer garage door injuries every year. In addition to potential tragic outcomes for your employees, these kinds of incidents can also cost your company financially.
While other safety devices, such as infrared sensors, are widely used today, they are fully dependent on the existing mechanisms in place to raise and lower the garage door. If one of these parts fails, the entire system fails and the infrared sensors alone are incapable of physically stopping the door from falling, thereby making it unable to prevent injury or damage. Safe-T-Support has designed the Garage Door Safety Arm as a measure to physically stop garage doors in their tracks without damage to additional components. Safe-T Support overhead door safety devices can be quickly reset without a delay in functionality or effectiveness.
Safe-T-Support’s Garage Door Safety Arms are easy to install, and with a variety of options to choose from, you’ll be able to find the right option to ensure the highest levels of garage safety and help prevent unnecessary injuries.

This can lead to serious injuries or even kill someone if they are standing underneath it. With the obvious potential human cost of a falling garage door, businesses also risk expensive damages to equipment, vehicles, and products making overhead door safety devices a comprehensive and financially prudent investment at all overhead door locations.
