Following my recent post on working at height and how not to fall off a truck Cam McFadyen has sent Biglorrybog this proposal: "Hi Brian, following your post about access and safety, this truck is for a mining company. It is a Tilt Tray with gates all around so you can`t fall off.You also have to take the gates off before it can be loaded." Looks good to me.....I only ever fell from one truck and that was enough for me.

Cam continues: "Because our trays slide past where the rear wheels are we have to use fold-away steps. It's interesting the variety of fold-away steps there are available now too.They now have ones that sit in a gate pocket so they can be used anywhere on a trailer and still give 3 points of contact."
