Injury Prevention - Opening Swing Door

Opening swing doors should be a relatively simple procedure and usually is. What we need to remember is that from point A to point B…freight sometimes moves. Most of the time falling freight isn’t an issue and is an easy fix. Other times, it could actually cause serious injury or even death. This video covers knowing how to properly and safely open swing doors. Doing so is our initial defense against injury or even death!

To watch this video and more have a look at our YouTube channel or the Employee Video library found here on our website (login required).

Jason - Thank you for your feedback concerning the swing door trailers. If you can't open the right trailer door without opening the left door too, please write the defect up on your DVIR. That will allow the shop to repair the doors before the trailer is put back in service.
Thank you,
John

That will work with some trailers but most of the swing door trailers in Cleveland you have to open both doors at the sametime to get 1 of the doors open.
