SpeedGuard II Flatbed Perimeter Fall Protection

Meets OSHA requirement(s) 1910.29(b) and 1926.502(b)

SpeedGuard™ II by Garlock Safety Systems is the fast, reliable, OSHA-compliant fall protection solution for flatbed trucks. Designed specifically for 48’ and 53’ flatbeds, this system includes everything needed to protect workers at height, including a truck access ladder and ladder safety gate. Installation is completely tool-free—rail holders drop directly into stake pockets, and the rails securely drop into place. The entire system can be installed in under 10 minutes by two workers, ensuring minimal downtime and maximum safety during loading, unloading, or inspection tasks.

Engineered for versatility and rugged use, SpeedGuard™ II is available with or without a rough-terrain transport cart that conveniently stores all system components. Whether your team works in distribution yards, construction zones, or remote delivery locations, SpeedGuard™ II helps maintain OSHA compliance with standards 1910.29(b) and 1926.502(b). Since flatbeds exceed the 4-foot threshold outlined in OSHA 1910.28(b)(1)(i), fall protection is not optional—it’s essential. SpeedGuard™ II ensures fast setup, dependable performance, and peace of mind on every job.
