LED Forklift Lights Keep Pedestrians Away From Forklifts
Forklifts can be dangerous to pedestrians when they’re turning and lifting loads. These LED safety lights help prevent rear-end collisions and foot injuries by creating a visible warning boundary around the forklift.
They’re easy to install, with a mount bracket that can be used on lift trucks without drilling into the overhead guard. They’re also made from durable materials and can withstand harsh environments.
Red Zone Safety Lights
Forklift safety is important to ensure your workers stay safe in a warehouse environment. The Red Zone LED Pedestrian Warning Light helps prevent pedestrian and forklift accidents by indicating to workers a safe distance they need to keep from forklifts that are in operation.
Mounted on the front or sides of a forklift (one for each side you would like to project a danger line) this light will show a bright red zone, which can be adjusted to your preferred NO GO ZONE, LED Forklift Lights around any forklift-operating equipment. It is also useful for showing a NO SWING ZONE around man up forklifts to help prevent foot injury or rear end swing collisions.
Pedestrians can easily see the dangerous line from far away, so they have plenty of time to react and move out of the way. This increases safety awareness for everyone, reduces work place accidents and gives forklift operators a more comfortable working environment, so they can focus more on their daily tasks.
Installation is easy with the tool free bracket and should take just minutes on most makes of forklift. Once mounted, a qualified maintenance person or forklift technician can wire the lights into power. The lights will remain on whenever the forklift is powered up and in use. This includes when the truck is being driven, regenerative braking or moving/stacking.
Blue Spotlights
Forklift blue spotlights are mounted at the front and rear of a lift truck and work wonders for factory safety. These lights alert pedestrians well in advance of a lift’s approach and reduce the number of major accidents caused by forklifts hitting people in front or behind.
These warning lights are usually set at a projection distance of up to 12 feet. This gives ample time for people to move out of the way if they need to. They also come with a rugged design and operate using a rechargeable battery within a 12-volt DC voltage range.
In addition to being effective for indicating that a forklift is approaching, these safety lights can be helpful in signaling which direction the equipment is traveling. This is particularly useful in areas where Dualvisionled led car light supplier racking and other elements can obscure the forklift’s travel path. Blue safety lights are very distinct, and their message is simple to understand: see a dot, know equipment is moving.
Like red zone lights, blue spotlights should only be turned on when a forklift is in motion toward the area where the light is pointed. Keeping the lights on all the time can desensitize people to the warning and make them more likely to ignore it when it really matters. When mounting these lights, it is important that they are wired so that only the relevant light comes on when the forklift is in use.
Rear Blue Spotter Lights
The forklift safety spot light shines a bright blue beam onto the ground in front of or behind your forklift. This indicates that a forklift is in the vicinity, so pedestrians should stay clear or remain at a safe distance. This type of safety light also lets pedestrians know that the forklift is moving in a specific direction and how fast it’s approaching.
These lights are one of the best ways to mitigate accidents that occur between pedestrians and forklifts. While strobe lights and backup alarms do help, they’re not as effective in some cases. Pedestrians may be distracted or listening to music through headphones, making them blind to the sound of a forklift approaching or even to a warning signal. A bright blue forklift spotlight will catch their attention much quicker and let them know that they’re in danger.
A forklift safety spotlight can be mounted in the overhead guard or on a mast. Some models are key-activated or travel direction-activated, and others offer different colors such as red. These can be very useful in noisy environments or where pedestrians are apt to forget about the presence of your equipment.
A forklift reversing light is also an option that helps reduce accidents that could happen when the truck is driving backwards. This type of safety light will project a large animated arrow that flashes progressively in a particular direction on the floor to let pedestrians know that the forklift is about to turn. These lights are also available with a range of warranty options from 6 months up to a lifetime.
White Spotlights
Easily mount this heavy-duty LED blue forklift light to the front or rear of your warehouse vehicle. Unlike audible alarms that may blend in with ambient noise or be tuned out after repeated exposure, this visual indicator clearly warns pedestrians of the forklift’s presence in warehouse blind spots, intersections, and aisles.
This forklift warning lights projects a bright, visible white spot pattern on the floor in front of or behind your forklift. This is a great option for warehouses with lots of pedestrian traffic. The white forklift work light is also effective in warning pedestrians of a forklift near cross aisles and entrance/exiting semi trailers.
This UL-Listed forklift red zone safety light is a great option for warehouses with tight aisles. The light casts a bright, visible red warning pattern on the ground from the forklift’s front or side. This signals the safe distance that workers should keep between themselves and a forklift, helping to prevent collisions or serious injuries.
This forklift safety light is easy to install with a mounting bracket that attaches to the overhead guard and doesn’t require drilling. It’s also compact and durable, made with a sleek aluminum housing that resists shock and vibration. The light is a great choice for those who are concerned about the environment because it has a low power consumption.
