Secure A-Frame safety accessory

June 3, 2013
Groves Inc. of Woodstock, IL, introduces the new Secure A-Frame safety accessory. Designed to greatly reduce personal injuries from falling slabs, the Secure A-Frame features an innovative, lockable post-and-arm system made of heavy-duty, 3-mm, thick-walled tubular steel. It replaces nylon straps, wood clamps and other unconventional methods of securing slabs to existing A-Frame units. Secure A-Frame safety accessory

The Secure A-Frame was designed for ease to use to increase worker compliance. Simply load the A-frame as you normally would, place the Secure A-Frame upright post into the steel foot, and slide the arm and pad down until it touches the slab and locks it in place. The Secure A-Frame upright arms are held in place with hardened steel pins, while the feet are inserted into the base of the existing A-Frame and are secured with safety chains. A tamper-resistant key prevents unauthorized removal of the safety arms. The is product sold in packages of two uprights with locking arms, with two bases and safety chains. This secures one side of an existing A-Frame.
