Grate-Lock™ Interlocking Safety Grating
Product Overview
Grate-Lock is an easy to install, economical safety grating option. Interlocking side channels distribute load to adjacent planks allowing for longer spans with reduced structural support. This load distribution also allows you to specify lighter gauge steel for substantial material savings. Pre-punched holes in the side channels allow the installer to bolt the planks together for increased performance.
Benefits of Grate-Lock include:
- Interlocking side channels
- Increased load performance
- Traction grip or smooth walking surface
- Easy to fabricate and install
