SafeRack is the #1 Selling Aluminum Gangways in North America and our ramp to ship gangways have earned the reputation for safe, durable and long-lasting in the harshest marine environments.
- OHSA Compliant and Designed to Optimize Worker Safety
- Corrosion and Saltwater-resistant Aluminum, Welded Joints and Unibody Design.
- Customized for Your Specific Application with Standard Models in Stock and Ready to Ship
In some situations, the ship already has an accommodation ladder, but your dock or work barge may not have a good place for it to land. We have cantilevered and counterbalanced platforms of different heights that allow you to go over any curbing or side rail to provide a safe landing zone for the accommodation ladder and give personnel a safe access point to get on and off.

Purposefully Built, Reliably Safe. Our advanced corrosion-resistant Aluminum Ship Gangways are designed for OHSA compliant worker safety, durability and reliability in marine environments and are built to order to your required length and specifications. And they’re built to last, too. Constructed of durable aluminum, galvanized or stainless steel, our vessel gangways are available in sizes up to 24′ in length and 5′ in width. However, special-purpose gangways exceeding those measurements can also be built.
SafeRack’s commitment to workplace safety manufactures durable and long-lasting aluminum marine gangways, dock gangways and custom marine ramps for safe access barges and ships. With a long history of building gangways our patented ship gangways and ramps are custom designed by our engineering staff to meet your application needs and built for durable and long-lasting performance in harsh marine conditions.
