- FrontLoader® – Front Loading Arbor
For 24-hour Emergency Service, call: (315) 703-9708
The patented FrontLoader® – Front Loading Arbor has eliminated rods and spreader plates of the conventional rod arbor and therefore also eliminated the awkward bending or climbing into the arbor well to load bricks. The shelves of our arbor allow for neat, easy and safe stacking of bricks from the loading gallery. Gallery safety rails do not interfere with use of this arbor and so theatre loading galleries may comply with building codes.
Counterweight bricks stack flat on the shelves and can be stacked on any of the three levels, eliminating the need to hang below the loading gallery or climbing higher to reach the counterweight stack.
There are no arbor rods to reach around, allowing the loader to securely hold the bricks with both hands at all times.
The sloped shelves and gates safely contain the bricks. Spreader plates are not required.
The loader can work fully within the confines of the compliant safety rail. The loader can easily reach over or under the rails to access the FrontLoader shelves.
FrontLoader can be installed in existing or new guide wall systems.
