DV202 – Verge Rollover Gate

Rollover Gates allow pallets to be moved to and from mezzanine floors, dock areas, and elevated platforms safely. Without a gate, the open edge of a mezzanine is an unguarded fall hazard whenever a pallet is being loaded or unloaded. The Rollover Gate eliminates that exposure by keeping a guarded panel across the opening at all times: when the gate is closed, the barrier faces the floor below; when it rolls over to accept a pallet, the barrier swings up to face the floor level above. One side is always protected.

The unique rollover design means there are no exposed edges at any point in the operation. Unlike a lifting gate or swing gate, the panel doesn’t open into mid-air. The forklift or pallet jack pushes the gate over from one side and it completes the rotation to the other, leaving a clear path for the pallet to pass through without the operator ever needing to reach past an unguarded edge.

Manual rollover gates are operated by hand for lower-frequency pallet movements. Electric rollover gates are motorised for higher-throughput operations, removing the need for manual effort and reducing the risk of incorrect operation. Both types are available in the same range of overall and pallet sizes.

Typical applications include mezzanine floor loading points, dock leveller and elevated platform edges, raised storage areas in warehouses and distribution centres, and any elevated opening where pallets are regularly transferred between levels.
