How Gangways Work

Aluminum gangway with X-brace railings installed at marina

1. Hinge at Shore

The gangway attaches to a fixed point on your seawall, bulkhead, or concrete abutment via a hinge plate.

2. Roller at Dock

The dock end rides on a roller or wheel system, allowing the gangway angle to adjust as your dock rises and falls.

3. Aluminum + Railings

Marine-grade 6061-T6 aluminum frame. Non-slip WPC or aluminum decking. Safety railings on both sides — always included.
