Machine Guards & Safety Enclosures
Equipment guarding needs accurate clearances, controlled access, maintenance room, attachment details, and facility-approved safety criteria before fabrication begins.
Made-to-fit guarding around existing equipment
ASB fabricates made-to-fit commercial metalwork for projects across Nicholasville, Lexington, and Central Kentucky.
Frames, panels, barriers, and access doors
Fabricated scopes may include welded frames, expanded-metal or mesh panels, posts, removable sections, hinged access doors, brackets, equipment barriers, and replacement components.
Coordinate operation and maintenance
Machine movement, service access, ventilation, visibility, cleaning, material flow, floor conditions, and adjacent controls need to be documented before dimensions are released.
Facility criteria control the guard
ASB fabricates to the approved dimensions and requirements. Hazard assessment, safeguarding design, electrical interlocks, certification, and regulatory acceptance remain with the facility and its qualified safety or design professionals unless explicitly included.
Planning the work
What's included
- Scope, dimensions, material, and connection review
- Shop drawings or supplied-detail coordination when included
- Custom metal fabrication and welding as quoted
- Hardware, finish, delivery, or scheduled installation as quoted
How the project runs
- 1 Document the need Share photos, use, rough dimensions, quantity, site conditions, and any controlling drawings or specifications.
- 2 Confirm the scope Define materials, connections, finish, access, responsibilities, and the information required before fabrication.
- 3 Fabricate the metalwork Build the agreed components in the shop and coordinate hardware, finish, and field-fit details.
- 4 Deliver or install Complete the quoted delivery or scheduled installation scope and coordinate adjacent-trade handoff.
Can you fabricate from our facility drawings?
Yes. Current approved drawings, dimensions, material requirements, and revision status can define the fabrication scope.
Do you certify machine guarding?
No certification is implied. The facility controls hazard assessment, safeguarding design, required interlocks, and regulatory acceptance unless those responsibilities are explicitly assigned.
Can guards include removable panels or access doors?
Yes. Hinged doors, removable panels, latches, brackets, and service openings can be fabricated to the approved access plan.
