    The walkway comes in multiple lengths each with 18” of inactive, walk on/off area at either end. The active width is 24’, with overall width 35”. The walkway is 0.25” in depth allowing for a single rollout walkway with no trip hazard.
  • Can I schedule a demonstration?
    To schedule a demonstration contact sales@gaitrite.com or call 973-209-0711/888-482-2362.
  • How durable is the GAITRite® system?
    The walkway is very durable so long as it is used and stored within specifications for the system, see the Technical Spec for full details. The top surface is a durable water resistant vinyl that can be wiped clean with a soft damp cloth. Always lay the container on its side. As indicated by the labels, do not stand it on end. Do not fold, crease or puncture the walkway, as this will void the warranty. Never move the walkway without first rolling it up on the supplied drum. If you decide to allow the walkway to permanently lay on the floor, then make sure you provide adequate protection from rolling heavy equipment over the walkway. If you decide to allow the walkway to permanently lay on the floor, then make sure you provide adequate signs to warn the floor cleaning personnel to keep a distance while mopping the floors. If you decide to allow the walkway to permanently lay on the floor, then make sure that the area will not flood during storms. If uncertain, please remove the AC Adaptor from the mains when the walkway is not in use. To avoid damaging the sensors heavy objects should not be wheeled across the walkway and only clean relatively flat shoes should be used when walking on the walkway (no high heels or cleats).
  • What is the set up time?
    The GAITRite® Walkway system takes less than 2 minutes to rollout and collect data.
  • What systems does GAITRite® Integrate with & how?
