Forklift Work Platforms

There are many instances where companies have to elevate workers and materials for specific jobs. Forklift works platforms attach to forklifts and accomplish this safely, efficiently, and economically. Forklift work platforms can be used both indoors and outdoors for any number of tasks. Companies routinely use them in inventory management, any number of equipment repair operations, lighting and electrical maintenance, and building repair.

No matter what type of forklift platform you use for your work, there are certain essential qualities every platform should have that you should be on the lookout for. Your forklift platform will have to be strong enough to support workers and equipment without buckling or bowing in the middle. It must have some kind of enclosure as well to prevent workers and supplies from falling to the ground. If possible, addition precautions such as skid-proof decks and toe guards should be built into the design. Last but not least, and Easy Rack recommends you invest a little extra as well in models that screen workers from forklift masts.

Currently we have three major lines of forklift work platforms that are designed to be highly maneuverable and access difficult places with maximum safety and time efficiency.

Industrial Forklift Platforms
These platforms will attach to any standard or industrial sized forklift and can fit through openings as narrow as 3’. A variety of fork sizes ranging up to 6” wide by 2 2/4” thick can access the platform, which is then secured in place by a positive pin locking system that holds it in place. Workers remain safe from the forklift because they are shielded at all times by a safety protection screen that extends vertically from the base of the platform and prevents workers from coming into contact with the mast. Full perimeter rails provide a safe, stable work environment. The unit replaces uses a front mid-rail gate that closes and locks in place as a safer alternative to a gate that could swing open unexpectedly.

Slip-On Style Forklift Platforms
These forklift attachments are designed to reach over obstacles that normally require a boom to access. Much smaller, more economical, and faster than scaffolds, they are ideal for both indoor and outdoor projects that require safe, quick elevation of workers. Aerial platforms further ensure worker safety with skid proof decking that minimizes the risk of slippage, and full perimeter guard rails that feature toe guards and tie offs for lanyards.

Quick-Tach Style Forklift Platforms
This platform separates work space from material storage space by placing workers on one platform and materials on the other. Supported by adjustable vertical supports, the materials platform is rated as 600 pounds capacity. Workers stay inside the safe perimeter guardrails that feature toe guards and lanyard tie offs identical to aerial models. To make the unit super safe, your material handling specialist can have mast protection built into it at the time of manufacture. Skid proof decking, easy and safe access to tools, and skid-free work space make this the most versatile attachment to use for multiple applications.

Easy Rack carries a wide variety of new & used pallet racks, heavy construction equipment, material handling equipment, commercial lighting, used pallet racks, and modular buildings installed nationwide.
