Mechanical rooms are the operational heartbeats of buildings, silently pumping life through the veins of the structure with a network of HVAC units, pumps, fans, elevators, and other essential machinery. These spaces, though crucial, host several hidden dangers, especially from rotating equipment that requires guarding.

This blog delves into the importance of incorporating ergonomic and maintenance-friendly principles into the design of machine guarding, highlighting how this approach can significantly enhance workplace safety and productivity.
