Climbing is very safe when done properly. But, a climber always has to take responsibility for their safety—whether it’s their knot, their harness or, in the case of auto belays, making sure they’re clipped into their belay loop.

TRUBLUE Safety Products
As the maker of the TRUBLUE Auto Belay, safety is our top priority. Failing to clip in is the leading cause of injury when climbing on auto belay. The following safety products and signage are designed to help you cut through user complacency and reduce clipping errors.
Belay Gates
A belay gate is a simple way to improve safety by minimizing the risk of user error. When no one is climbing, the belay gate blocks the starting holds on a route. After a climber clips in, the belay gate lays flat on the floor, alerting others that there is a climber above.
