Forklift Man Cages

When working at height, safety is non-negotiable. A forklift man cage provides a secure, stable platform for carrying out tasks such as maintenance, inspections or stocktaking in warehouse and industrial environments. These cages are designed to be used with a forklift, offering a safer alternative to ladders or makeshift access solutions.

At Shelving Supply Australia (SSA), we supply forklift man cages that are built to meet Australian safety standards. With clearly marked safe working load limits, anchor points for harnesses, and optional add-ons for shelving and mobility, our cages are made for real working conditions.
