New York City is in the middle of a huge underground excavation project that has been going on for years. The pictures from the subterranean world are dramatic and have found their way onto websites and news magazines around the world. As a safety professional, you can't help but notice the...
To reduce costs and provide timely service, John Blonien, Fleet Director for Milwaukee County, decided to pour a concrete pit. However, after the pit was installed, John realized a cover was needed to avoid someone falling into the pit.
We recently had the opportunity to visit the site of one of our recent roof railing customers in PA. The scope of the project was full roof perimeter protection on two buildings. Their rooftop fall protection included roof railing, skylight screens, and safety gates for ladder access points...
PGE arena is home to many of the EURO 2012 European football matches that are going on right now (written June, 26, 2012). When building the stadium in 2011 they turned to Kee Lite aluminum pipe railing to build the nearly 4,000 feet of safety railing that surround this modern sports arena.
