Steel Guard Heavy Duty Guard Rail

Protecting your people, product, and physical plant from collisions is one of the best investments you can make. In 1986, we set out to design the toughest heavy-duty guard rail system in the industry. After more than 40,000 installations, no other brand exceeds the rugged design of Steel Guard.

Now that’s one tough rail!

Protect these valuable areas in your facility with heavy-duty steel guard rails:

Worker areas
Aisles
Work platforms
In-plant offices
Building walls
Rack aisle ends
and more!

We will be happy to recommend the industrial guard rail or other safety solution right for your environment.

Steel King also carries a full line of industrial racking safety accessories including Safety Gates, which can be ordered as part of a new installation or retrofitted into an existing system. They’re self-closing and include a hinge assembly on one side of the gate and two gate stops on the opposite side, for hanging in either direction.

Many standard Steel Guard^® products are available through our 48-Hour Quick Ship program.

Need Help Designing Your Steel Guard Rail System? We’re here to help!

Steel King experts are available to help if you need assistance designing your Steel Guard rail system? 

These are the basics:

Choose the height of your system. Steel Guard^® is available in either single or double high.

Choose Post Type. Standard corner posts are available. Center posts are available in four options: standard, standard offset, end offset, and side offset.

Choose your rail lengths. Note that rails are measured from post-to-post, on center; the actual rail component will be 4″ shorter than the specified length on Steel Guard. Lift-out pockets increase the center-to-center dimension by 1″.

Choose bolted or lift-out rail. The lift-out rail provides equipment protection while still enabling easy access when needed.

Choose your configuration. Options include straight, optional side angled, and vertically angled.
