Safeguard for power tool switches

Article Tools

  • Bookmark


The Safety Gate Professional Retrofit attaches to a tool's power plug to provide restart protection wherever and whenever it operates. It works by recognizing when the tool's power switch is left on and puts up a protective “gate,” stopping the flow of electricity. The yellow LED indicator lets the user know the SafetyGate is in “protect mode.” When power is needed, operators can turn the tool's power switch off (extinguishing the LED) and then back on for safe normal operation. The product, which is completely automatic, is available in single, dual and three-packs.
