Pivoting Portable Truck Netting System
The Pivoting Portable Truck Netting System is built with a compression arm that can pivot to rest directly against your flatbed truck. It is ideal for facilities that have multiple use bays or where customers do not want to connect directly to the flatbed. The compression arms swing out from the columns and butt up against the side of the flatbed to create a fall protection solution that is quick and easy to set up. This system is engineered with non-permanent weighted bases and fixed columns that can be moved if necessary. Bases have fork pocket holes to assist in moving and are typically used in applications where mounted posts are not feasible. All components can be taken apart if needed.
Components
- 3 columns (6-inch x 6-inch)
- Pivoting arm
- Compression bar (made up of three bars)
- Column base (4 ft x 4 ft x 2.5 ft)
- 3/8-inch galvanized GAC
- Snap hooks for every 2 ft
- 2 3/8-inch light duty thimble
- 1 net panel
- 4 3/8-inch wire rope clips
- 1 TB (6-inch x half inch)
Fixed Base Portable Truck Netting System
The Fixed Base Portable Truck Netting System includes weighted bases with fixed vertical columns that can be moved and used in multiple locations. Ideal for outdoor applications, this non-permanent system solves pavement mounting limitations with fork pocket bases for moving. The netting is attached with wire rope and custom brackets that attach to the stake pockets of the flatbed trailer. These systems are typically used in applications where pouring the footings to mount permanent posts is not possible. Take advantage of this highly beneficial safety system that protects employees while taking up very little space in your facility.
Components
- 3 columns (6-inch x 6-inch)

The system is built with a compression arm that can pivot to rest directly against your flatbed truck. This system has been engineered to open or close quickly and easily, with no additional setup required for the netting panel. The system is the perfect permanent safety solution to mitigate the risk and cost of serious workplace injuries that could be incurred if a worker falls from a truck.

Wall Mounted Truck Netting System
The Wall Mounted Truck Netting System, also known as our “Fill in the Gap System,” protects small gaps between the shop floor and trailer bed in recessed bay applications where a post and net system is not suitable. The nets are attached to the facility wall by cable or a flat bar/pad eye setup. The net then hangs from the attachment hardware and is attached to the trailer with stake pockets when a flatbed is in place. Recessed bay applications can be particularly dangerous to workers, and our system ensures that all facility areas are protected.

Soft Catch Netting
Our netting is a soft catch product that absorbs energy as an object falls into it. The system disperses energy from impact point to guard frame, cable, and attachment points. Unlike rigid barriers, our nets are allowed to flex at impact, dissipating energy, and providing less excess force to the netting system itself, keeping your personnel and materials safe.
