NPi Audio Visual Solutions, a leader in live event production, needed a reliable way to protect essential stage cables while maintaining ADA compliance and audience safety. By using the Checkers Yellow Jacket® Heavy-Duty Cable Protector AMS® System, they created safe, accessible pathways and safeguarded valuable equipment during large-scale shows. The solution improved audience and crew safety, ensured full ADA compliance, and reduced equipment wear and tear.
Walking through construction zones can be risky when safety shortcuts are taken. Loose cables, unstable boards, and poor accessibility create hazards for everyone. Using cable protectors, ground mats, and ADA-compliant ramps ensures safer, more efficient worksites.
Tree felling is one of the most hazardous tasks in tree care and logging. In fact, more people are killed while felling trees than in any other logging activity, according to OSHA. Their Tree Trimming Safety Fact Sheet outlines essential precautions for eliminating risks, from power line hazards to unstable trees.
Unstable or uneven terrain is a serious hazard on construction sites, especially for cranes and heavy equipment. Without proper support, machines can tip, shift, or cause costly delays.
Ground protection mats distribute weight evenly, stabilize surfaces, and help meet OSHA 1926.1402 and ASME B30.5 safety standards. Checkers® offers reliable solutions like VersaMAT®, AlturnaMAT®, and TuffTrak®XL for demanding environments.
For contractors and site managers, ground mats provide compliance, protect the environment, and ensure safer, more efficient jobsites.
Wheel chocks are one of the simplest yet most critical safety tools on a construction site. They prevent accidental vehicle movement during loading, unloading, or maintenance.
OSHA and FMCSA require proper chocking in many situations, especially when air brakes are not engaged. Checkers® polyurethane chocks are built for extreme loads, with slip-resistant textures and bright colors for quick visual verification.
For contractors and safety managers, durable wheel chocks reduce risks, ensure compliance, and protect crews when working with everything from utility vehicles to heavy haul trucks.
Jobsites with heavy equipment create serious visibility risks for smaller vehicles and workers. Dust, darkness, and blind spots make collisions more likely.
Warning whips raise visibility by making support trucks, ATVs, and service vehicles easier to spot. Checkers® offers durable fiberglass whips with bright flags, LEDs, and reflective markings to ensure detection in all conditions.
For site managers, warning whips support safety policies, reduce collision risks, and help create safer, more compliant worksites.
Construction sites are filled with cables and hoses that create trip hazards and expose cords to damage. Without protection, they can cause costly downtime, injuries, and OSHA violations.
Cable protectors keep walkways clear, shield cords from heavy loads, and support compliance with OSHA 1926.416 and 1910.304. Checkers® offers durable, high-visibility solutions like the Guard Dog® and Yellow Jacket® series, along with ADA-compliant ramps for safer access.
For contractors and safety managers, cable protectors reduce replacement costs, improve site efficiency, and help maintain safer, more compliant jobsites.
Construction sites face a wide range of safety regulations, from electrical standards to vehicle stability requirements. Staying compliant helps reduce risks, fines, and costly downtime.
Checkers® safety solutions—like cable protectors, ground protection mats, wheel chocks, and warning whips—support OSHA and CSA standards while improving jobsite efficiency.
For contractors and safety managers, using durable, compliant equipment ensures safer worksites today and helps meet evolving regulations in the future.
Mining vehicles often operate on uneven or sloped terrain, where the risk of rollaways is high. Relying only on parking or air brakes isn’t enough—unattended equipment can move unexpectedly, creating serious hazards during loading and unloading.
Wheel chocks add a critical layer of protection by securing tires against movement. Checkers’ heavy-duty polyurethane chocks outperform wood or rubber, resisting UV, chemicals, and extreme loads while staying visible in poor lighting conditions. Models are available for everything from utility trucks to 800-ton haul trucks.
For mine managers and safety officers, wheel chocks support OSHA, FMCSA, and Canadian compliance while reducing accident risks, helping to build safer, more reliable mining operations.
