Steel toe boards, also called kick plates, are assembled around the perimeter of walkways and railing systems and are often essential to meet OSHA safety requirements where occupational hazards are present. This flanged version has a bent leg and is 4″ tall in many lengths.
At 4″ tall, this toe board is above the 3.5″ minimum height in OSHA’s general industry rule, 29 CFR 1910.29(k). That rule also calls for a 50 lb load rating and a gap of 0.25″ or less at the floor, both of which depend on how the board is installed. Read our OSHA toe board requirements guide for the full list.

FAQ
Is there a flat version?
Yes, the perforated toe board has no leg and two rows of holes.
What heights?
4″ tall.
Does a 4″ toe board meet OSHA height?
OSHA 1910.29(k) requires a toe board at least 3.5″ tall, so a 4″ board clears the height minimum. Installation and load requirements still apply.
Choosing a finish
Raw steel ships unfinished, ready for welding or painting. Pre-galvanized steel is galvanized before it is formed, which gives a cleaner appearance.
