Track Mounted Gangways

Not all railcars, trucks, or cargo vessels are made the same.

Track-mounted gangways are designed to address the variability in port and compartment spacing on railcars, trucks, and vessels. These gangways slide horizontally, allowing operators to access multiple hatches or vehicles efficiently from a single platform. They feature folding stairs with safety cages, which can be positioned along a fixed track, and support multiple workers simultaneously.

  • Tracking carriages designed for easy tracking
  • No need to re-spot trucks
  • Reliable, durable, and corrosion resistant
  • Wing panels that move with gangways
  • Can be retrofitted to existing loading racks

Retractalok Power Assist

Simple & Safe to Lift or Lower
Retractalok power assist eliminates heavy lifting while also addressing gangway springs failure by removing the springs altogether.
