The columns in a building are the backbone of its structural integrity. The job of a column is to keep the building from collapsing or shifting in a way that could cause damage to the overall structure. If damage to a structural column occurs, repairing it can cost tens of thousands of dollars.
DAMO SHIELD is the only high-impact guard of its kind on the market. It is made of two structural steel half-moons, which are bolted together around your building post. It has a minimal footprint as floor anchors are on the inside of the protective barrier. At 36" in standard height and anchored to the concrete slab with eight heavy-duty Hilti screw anchors, it will stay put, no matter what happens. DAMO SHIELD can even be used as a single half-moon or with barrier extensions to protect other warehouse fixtures such as pipes and drains, or electric cables running next to columns.
DAMO SHIELD is an excellent long-term investment to guard building columns in warehouses, distribution centers, indoor parking lots and garages, and manufacturing facilities. It is also the ideal solution for operators looking to guard a brand new storage or manufacturing facility. DAMO SHIELD works in all environments: from dry storage to freezer or outdoor environments, as the guarding barrier can be galvanized to prevent rusting.
DAMO SHIELD is very adaptable. Our column guard comes in two sizes to adapt to different pillar sizes. A single half-moon can be used to protect building infrastructures such as plumbing or electricals against a building wall. Extension barriers of almost any length can be added between the two half moons to adapt to rectangular columns or equipment.
As the name implies, the fork blocker blocks forklift blades from impacting and damaging building columns above the 8" DEFLEX PLATE. This optional add-on product was designed to prevent the lift's fork blades from reaching through to the column while DAMO SHIELD protects the column from all the other parts of the forklift.
The standard height of our DAMO SHIELD is 36".
