Structural columns in busy warehouses are constantly at risk from reversing forklifts with tight turning radius and limited sightlines — a direct impact can cause serious structural damage and costly repairs. The Column Guard HD anchors directly into the floor to absorb 360° of impact without transferring any shock to the building structure, unlike pillow-style alternatives. Built from 3/8" thick cold-rolled steel with 3/8" gussets at 36" high, it can stop a 10,000 lb. forklift traveling at 3–4 mph. Available in two sizes to fit columns up to 10" x 10" or 16" x 16", with extension assemblies available for larger applications.
