Description

There are an estimated 68,000 forklift accidents each year. These accidents injure 90,000 workers, cause substantial property damage, disrupt business operations, and result in worker compensation claims costing companies millions of dollars in losses. Many of these accidents are caused by collisions between forklifts and rollup doors as well as overhead equipment and fixtures.

The Watchman is a low clearance alarm bar that warns forklift operators and management of potential collisions between forklifts and overhead doors and fixtures before they happen. Make forklift and employee safety a priority at your facility with the Watchman.

The Watchman is a visual and audio warning device that alerts forklift operators and management of impending collisions involving forklifts, doors and fixtures before they happen.

The Watchman protects overhead doors, low overhead passageways and virtually any overhead fixture such as pallet racks, lifts, walls, sprinklers, conveyors, catwalks and chemical lines.

Use of the Watchman conveys the importance management places on safety and safe forklift operating principles.

How it works:

  • The Watchman installs in front of and slightly below the overhead door or fixture to be protected.
  • If the Watchman is hit by a forklift truck or load, the impact sets off a loud 105dB alarm and flashing red lights.
  • The alarm and flashing lights signal the driver to immediately STOP and alerts management of the incident.
