Industrial Steel Facility Safety Products
Steel Facility Safety Products Built for Industrial Environments
For 20-plus years, ITS has specialized in fabricating high-performance steel facility safety products to protect your people, assets, and operations. Our fabricators design for high-demanding industrial environments, and our safety systems range from steel guard rails to machine guarding, catwalks, and so much more, all constructed for strength, durability, and compliance with OSHA, ANSI, IBC, and local regulations.
With our in-house structural steel and plate capabilities, we are more than capable of designing, engineering, and building custom safety systems that integrate seamlessly into your facility layout and processes.

Why Facility Safety Products Matter in Industrial Settings
In any industrial or manufacturing setting, facility safety products are essential because they:
- Prevent injuries and workplace accidents
- Protect your machinery, racking systems, and infrastructure from collisions
- Comply with federal safety regulations (OSHA, ANSI, and local codes)
- Minimize downtime and costly repairs
- Improve worker confidence and operational flow
Custom-Fabricated Steel Safety Solutions by ITS
ITS provides a turnkey approach to product safety fabrication. We design, engineer, and manufacture every solution in-house at our 20,000-square-foot facility in Chesterfield, Michigan, guaranteeing quality control from raw steel processing to the final coating and installation. Every product is constructed using industrial-grade steel and tailored to your operation’s unique loads, impacts and environmental conditions.
Guard Rails & Safety Rail Systems
ITS designs steel guard rails and safety railing systems for use around walkways, platforms, loading docks, and forklift traffic areas. These can be anchored, removed, or integrated with other structural supports and are made from high-strength steel tubing or angle.
Steel Bollards & Impact Barriers
Heavy-duty steel bollards safeguard machinery, pedestrian walkways, corners and overhead doors. Depending on your facility’s configuration, we offer retractable, permanent, or removable bollards. Options include base-mounted or concrete-filled bollards.
Column Guards & Rack Protection
Prevent structural damage to racking, support columns, and upright beams with ITS’s precision-cut, welded steel protection. Our engineers can custom-make these guards to fit your racking footprint and loading requirements.
Machine & Equipment Guards
We fabricate OSHA-compliant guards that surround dangerous areas around welders, CNCS, press brakes, robotic cells, and more. Our solutions include steel mesh panels, framed barriers, interlocking doors, and welded cages—all custom-made to your equipment layout.
Ladders, Stair Systems, & Work Platforms
For elevated operations and maintenance tasks, ITS fabricates steel access ladders, code-compliant stair systems, and ergonomic platforms. These structures, which include safety rails, toe boards, and anti-slip treads, are designed to meet OSHA and IBC requirements.
Catwalks & Access Walkways
Our steel catwalks allow your workers to cross machinery, conveyor systems, or pipes safely. We customize kickplates, handrails, and grating types to meet your operational and safety requirements. Process plants, distribution centers, or manufacturing lines benefit from these walkways with overhead routing.
Kick Plates & Toe Boards
Small but critical, kick plates and toe boards prevent tools, debris, and parts from falling off stairs or elevated platforms. These are made from bent steel and attached to larger platform systems by bolting or welding.
Industry-Specific Safety Fabrication—Built for Your Facility
No two facilities are alike. For this reason, ITS delivers precision-fabricated, CAD-designed, field-measured safety solutions that are custom-made to match the layout and operations of your facility. Our team works closely with your facility managers, plant engineers, and safety officials to guarantee that the final installation improves both the productivity and protection of your facility.
Manufacturing & Assembly Plants
Safety solutions in manufacturing and assembly facilities need to handle continuous movement, heavy machinery, and materials. Our OSHA-compliant steel safety guards, barriers, and platforms streamline operations, minimize downtime, and safeguard your personnel and your equipment.
Automotive & Tier 1 Suppliers
Automotive plants rely on steel safety barriers, equipment platforms, and custom steel guards to keep assembly lines safe and efficient. Here at ITS, we deliver robust, low-maintenance solutions that protect workers and provide high production output.
Warehouse & Logistics
From pallet rack guards to forklift safety barriers, our custom-steel fabricated safety solutions help warehouse and logistics operations prevent accidents, protect goods, and optimize traffic flow.
Food & Beverage Processing
Hygiene is as critical as safety in food-grade facilities. Our stainless and coated steel products are designed to resist corrosion, meet sanitation requirements, and protect personnel in washdown and high-moisture environments.
Pharmaceutical Facilities
ITS designs safety products compatible with cleanroom standards and controlled environments. Whether you need ladder access in sensitive areas or equipment guarding in compounding facilities, we guarantee FDA and GMP compliance while providing precisely constructed, robust solutions.
Energy & Utilities
Power generation, water treatment, and utility operations often have elevated access, outdoor conditions, and remote equipment zones. ITS fabricates galvanized and coated steel ladders, stair towers, platform systems, and protective enclosures, designed for harsh environments and critical infrastructure reliability.
Aerospace
High safety standards and extreme accuracy are required in aerospace facilities. ITS designs and fabricates aerospace-grade steel safety solutions, including mezzanines, machine guards, and protective railings that meet exacting operational and quality control standards.
Regulatory Compliance You Can Trust
We understand compliance is not optional, and all our safety products are designed to meet the letter and spirit of the law:
- OSHA 1910 & 1926: Walking-working surfaces, fall protection, and machine guarding
- IBC: Stair and platform structural requirements
- ANSI: Safety barrier and racking impact protection standards
- Client-Specific Specs: Custom SOPs or site-specific safety requirements
The ITS Advantage in Facility Safety Fabrication
What sets ITS apart is more than just the quality of our steel; it’s the process, precision, and partnership behind every product that boosts confidence in your facility.
Integrated Design & Fabrication
Every steel safety project at ITS starts and finishes in-house. Our team of engineers, CAD designers, and fabrication specialists works collaboratively to ensure every product is built to exact specifications. Our approach streamlines timelines, reduces miscommunication, and gives you a single point of accountability from concept to delivery.
Nationwide Service
Regardless of where you are located, ITS can be there. Our team mobilizes across the country to perform site measurements, deliver equipment, and execute turnkey installations. There is no need to juggle multiple vendors; we handle it all.
Industry-Proven Durability
Our safety products are designed for real-world environments, meaning that they’re built to withstand collisions, machine vibrations, moisture, high traffic, and heavy use. We use industrial-grade steel, high-strength welds, and protective finishes to ensure every safety product performs reliably over time with minimal maintenance.
Turnkey Solutions for Your Facility
Every one of our safety products is custom-fabricated, according to your facility’s layout, procedures, and safety standards. Every detail, no matter how minor or extensive, is customized to fit your needs, not the other way around.
