Hannibal End of Row Protector
This end of row protector attaches to the frame at the end of an aisle or inside a tunnel. The benefit to this style of end of aisle protector is how low-profile the accessory is. It takes up very little space from the intersecting aisle it is installed in.
Guard Rail for Pallet Racking End-of-Aisle Protection
This end-of-aisle guardrail protects the end frame of pallet rack in intersecting aisles. It can also form a barrier between travel aisles and pedestrian traffic.
This barrier is really impressive. It doesn’t dent or become deformed after impact. It absorbs the energy from the impact and bounces back. For more information, please contact Sales at (562) 946-8459.
