DropShields on Boom Lift Basket

Make your job site safer with our DropShields®. These mesh covers prevent tools and small parts from falling out of the boom basket. They reduce the risk of injuries or damage caused by objects falling from working heights. 

DropShields® feature a close-knit mesh that allows wind to pass through, allows for operator visibility, and effectively catches small items. DropShields® secure to the boom basket with hook-and-loop straps. Although they are lightweight and easy to use, these covers are strong, with the ability to hold up to 1,100 lbs. These heavy object covers are capable of securely catching tools such as drills and hammers. 

DropShields® come in five standard sizes to fit different manufacturers’ boom baskets – 3ft, 4ft, 5ft, 6ft, and 8ft. Our design is the only one with two doors – allowing entry and exit at both the center and side.
