Compliance (OSHA Self-Closing / EN ISO 14122-4)
OSHA requires a self-closing gate — not a chain — at ladder and platform openings. Our gates meet that requirement and ship with DoC to EN ISO 14122-4.

|---|---|
| Self-closing gate | Compliant |
| Chain or rope | Not compliant |
| Removable rail / no guard | Not compliant |

Compliance Reference
Safety Gate Compliance Checklist
When an inspector walks your ladderway, the gate draws the first look — because a ladder opening is treated as a hole in the walking surface, the protection around it has to meet railing rules, not just good intentions. The checklist below translates the OSHA expectations most cited at ladderway openings into the physical features you can verify on delivery day. Each row corresponds to an item on the drawing that ships with your quote, so the paper trail and the steel agree.
Gates are hot-dip galvanized to ISO 1461 at 85–100 μm, retrofit bolt-on to existing cages, and supplied with a declaration of conformity for your compliance file.
| Requirement at the Opening | What Inspectors Look For | How the Gate Meets It |
|---|---|---|
| Self-closing action | Gate returns to closed with no user action | Spring-driven leaf, tested at trial assembly |
| Swing direction | Swings away from the opening | Handed at order from your opening layout |
| Rail geometry | Top rail near 42 in with midrail | Built to drawing supplied with every quote |
| Chain or slack rope | Not accepted as fall protection | Rigid steel leaf, no chain substitutes |
| Corrosion protection | Finish suitable for exposure | HDG 85–100 μm per ISO 1461, SS304 option |
What the Gate Actually Buys You
Feature, Advantage, Outcome
| Feature | Advantage | Your Outcome |
|---|---|---|
| Self-closing spring hinge | the opening re-secures itself, no habit required | your last climber down is as protected as the first |
| Bolt-on retrofit plates | fits standard cage openings without welding | installed in a break, HDG layer untouched |
| DoC + cert pack in the box | OSHA 1910.28 / EN ISO 14122-4 cited | gate passes inspection with the ladder, one file |
| Factory-direct $60–180 | no dealer markup on a catalog-size part | whole-fleet gating stays a budget line, not a project |
| SS304 / SS316 option (1.8x / 2.5x) | same geometry in washdown or marine grade | one gate spec across every site environment |
