Description

Shipping containers are usually locked together by twist locks located at the corner casting of the container. The height of stacked containers, either on board ship or on dry land, present hazards for personnel moving on the stacked containers, or working on ship decks adjacent to open hatch covers. Checkmate addresses safety issues in this work environment through its Container Top Lock and End Lock Anchor Wand.

Workers can tie off safely before reaching 3 ft of a leading edge.
