About The Client

MasterPet is a well-established manufacturer and distributor of pet food and accessories, supplying leading brands across Australia and New Zealand.

 

The Requirement

The facility required a combination of impact-resistant barriers, access gates, and protective bollards to improve safety within shared forklift and pedestrian zones. The focus was on separating personnel from moving equipment, protecting critical infrastructure, and creating safe, defined walkways throughout the warehouse.

 

The Challenges

  • Mixed-Use Zones: The warehouse features shared traffic between forklifts and staff, increasing the need for clear separation and defined pedestrian paths.
  • Visibility and Access: Safety infrastructure had to be highly visible while still allowing for controlled movement of people and equipment.
  • Durability: Products had to withstand regular impacts, warehouse wear and tear, and 24/7 operational demands.
  • Site-Specific Fit: Gates and barriers needed to fit precise dimensions and be installed with minimal disruption to daily operations.
  • Compliance and Best Practice: The client wanted to align the warehouse layout with WHS best practices for pedestrian protection and plant separation.

 

The Solution

MasterPet selected a number of safety products including the Recessed Rail Warehouse Barriers, 75mm Bollards and Self Closing Gates.

 The Recessed Rail Warehouse Barriers offers the following features:

  • Pedestrian Protection: Designed to prevent forklifts and trolleys from encroaching into pedestrian walkways, these low-profile barriers offer strong physical separation.
  • Compact and Efficient: The recessed rail design keeps the barrier low and out of the way while still preventing intrusion into walking zones.
  • High-Visibility Finish: Finished in safety yellow powder coat, the barriers are easy to see even in low-light conditions.
  • Modular System: Easily configured into continuous runs or used to frame specific areas like workstations, storage aisles, or crossing points.
  • Equipment and Asset Protection: Installed near corners, entry points, and critical infrastructure, the bollards serve as high-impact barriers against accidental damage.
  • Surface-Mount Convenience: Allows quick installation without core drilling, making it ideal for retrofitting or upgrades.
  • High Durability: Manufactured from thick-walled steel and powder coated in safety yellow for visibility and corrosion resistance.
  • Versatile Placement: Suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, wherever controlled vehicle access or equipment protection is needed.
  • Automatic Closing for Safety: Designed with a built-in spring mechanism, the gates close automatically behind users to maintain a secure pedestrian barrier.
  • Size Variety: Two width options were installed to suit different entry points—ensuring functional access without compromising safety.
  • Durable Build: Made from galvanised steel with a powder-coated finish for resistance to wear and environmental exposure.
  • Easy Integration: Mounted directly to warehouse bollards or posts, these gates form part of a cohesive pedestrian safety system.
