Key Features
- Genuine OEM Quality — Manufactured to Genie's original material and dimensional specifications, so the spring delivers the correct tension and durability for platform gate operation.
- Direct Replacement Fit — This spring installs in place of the original without alteration, preserving the gate's designed range of motion and return action.
- Broad Boom Lift Compatibility — Fits multiple Genie SX super-boom, S telescopic, and Z and ZX articulating boom lift families, making it a practical stock item for mixed fleets.
- Restores Gate Function — A worn or broken platform gate spring prevents the gate from closing and latching correctly; replacing it with this part restores proper gate return and closure.
- Platform Safety Relevance — The platform gate is a primary fall-protection point on an aerial boom lift. Keeping the gate spring in sound condition supports correct latching behavior and operator containment at height.
A platform gate spring provides the return tension that pulls the entry gate closed after an operator enters or exits the work platform. Without a functioning spring, the gate may remain open or fail to latch, which compromises the gate's ability to contain the operator at elevation. Over time, repeated cycling, weathering, and exposure to site conditions can weaken or break the spring coil, making timely replacement important. Replacing a failed spring with the correct Genie 42104GT restores the gate's self-closing action and keeps the platform operating as designed.
