Keep Workers Safe Around
Vehicle Inspection Pits
Garage pit covers protect mechanics from falling into the inspection pit while still providing full access to the underside of the vehicle.
Prevent Mechanics from Falling into the Inspection Pit
Open inspection pits are one of the most common causes of accidents, particularly in the automotive industry. The pit hazard must be protected by a vehicle, cover, or barrier at all times.
Vehicle inspection pits pose a serious injury risk to those who work in and around them. Sometimes, especially in a busy work environment, it can be easy to forget that you are working around an open void. Unfortunately, this means that workers are prone to falling through these holes and being severely injured. Our vehicle inspection pit covers ensures that your team is protected and accidents are minimized.
Adjustable to Fit Your Application
PitProtect is an expandable, manual system that allows for the pit to be fully or partially covered, depending on your garage safety needs. Originally designed for the automotive industry, the durability and adjustability make it ideal for various tasks, including buses, trains, and other larger vehicles. The mechanic pit covers can be fixed down for extra stability.
Our vehicle service pit covers come in two sizes and can be adjusted in length and width, making them the perfect fit for every pit.
Easy to Install and Use
PitProtect is lightweight (44 and 48 lb), making it easy to carry and install. Made of aluminum, the inspection pit covers can be installed with just a drill and operated by a single person. This simplifies work for your team and saves time for business.
