SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PREVENTING A WALKWAY PLATFORM FLIP DOOR FROM BEING RAISED WITHOUT A GUARDRAIL INSTALLED In an example, a system for preventing a flip door from being raised without a guardrail installed is disclosed. The system includes a guardrail having a post, and the post having a post dog. The system also includes a safety latch mechanism configured to be coupled to a fixed structure. The safety latch mechanism includes a body, a socket disposed in the body and configured to receive the post, and a door latch rotatably coupled to the body and biased in a latched position that is configured to retain a flip door in a lowered position. Based on the post being inserted into the socket of the safety latch mechanism, the post dog engages with and rotates the door latch from the latched position to an unlatched position, thereby allowing the flip door to be raised from the lowered position to a raised position. l100 Fixed Structure 110 Safety Latch Mechanism 108 Walking Surface 15 Body112 Support Bracket 160 Interior Surface 162 Bottom Portion eiorSurface64 Pair of Wall Portions 138 F Flip Door 118 irtSide _2 Second Side14 Intermediate Flip Arm 152 Top Surface 156 Socket14 Second Flip Door 140 DoorLatch1 Second Dog L 5 Post Latch120 ng~oion~Guardraill102 Locking Portion L3uadril0 Post104 Cam Portion 2 Post Dog 106 Tapered Portion 12 Second Door Latch 1 Recessed Portion 126 (Recess12 Second Post Latch 148 Toe 154 FIG. 1 --------------------
