The Savety Yellow 13-16' PVC Retractable Fabric Gate is a lightweight, high-visibility barrier designed for docks and door openings that remain intermittently open. It provides a flexible way to deter unauthorized access and prevent debris, insects, and birds from entering the work area while still allowing air flow through the breathable mesh fabric. The gate retracts smoothly with a pull force of about 3 lbs, enabling quick deployment and retraction to minimize downtime at busy loading zones.
Constructed with an 18 oz PVC mesh, this gate balances visibility with airflow, helping maintain ventilation and reducing heat buildup near the dock. A ratchet mechanism controls tension, and a locking feature helps prevent accidental or intentional entry when desired. The unit stands 48 inches tall and is designed to accommodate door openings in the 13 to 16 foot range, making it suitable for a variety of dock door configurations. Its lightweight design and high-visibility color enhance safety by ensuring the barrier is easily seen by personnel in the area.
Practical considerations include its 1000 lb impact rating at 4 mph, which provides a measured level of protection against incidental contact or minor impacts during routine operations. While it meets OSHA-related expectations for fall protection in its use context, verify that the product specification aligns with your facility’s safety plan and local regulations. The gate is intended for use where occasional door openings occur and airflow is needed; it may feature a small gap at the base to accommodate terrain or door tracks. Lead times may apply, and the stated lead time is 2–3 weeks for ordering accuracy.
