ABSTRACT:
A safety system allows a safety guard, e.g. a net and at least one cable, that can be attached in an offset relationship to the back of a pallet rack so that all of the net-supporting cables are in the same plane and that the spacial distance between the safety net and the back of the pallet rack can be adjusted without disengaging the net-supporting cables from a pallet rack member, such as, an extension boom or offset bar. The system may use an offset bracket assembly comprising: an offset bar of a linear length and having a first end and a second end, the bar having at least one set of apertures positioned along the linear length of the bar, a mounting plate attached to the first end of the offset bar and adapted to securely engage a support post of the pallet rack, the mounting plate attached to the offset bar such that its plane is perpendicular to the central axis of the offset bar, and a mounting sleeve of a linear length and adapted to be slidably received by the offset bar, the mounting sleeve having at least one aperture that can be aligned with at least one aperture of the offset bar and having at least one eyelet securely attached to an external surface and configured to engage a net supporting cable. A similar mounting sleeve or attachment sleeve may be used to adjustably attach a support system to the pallet rack and a vertical extension boom.
