Mesh Basket Cover Kit for JLG E300 — Drop Protection

Founded in 1969 by John L. Grove, JLG Industries was built on the mission to “reach out to meet your highest challenges.” Just one year later, JLG sold its first aerial work platform, launching what would become a legacy of innovation in lift and access equipment. Today, JLG is a global leader in the industry and a subsidiary of Oshkosh Corporation, continuing to push boundaries with cutting-edge, environmentally conscious technology. True to its mission, JLG places sustainability and customer safety at the forefront, stating, “Sustainability guides our responsibility to the environment and to our customers, who demand green solutions.”

As the largest manufacturer of aerial lifts and telehandlers, JLG offers a wide variety of equipment, including scissor lifts, boom lifts, vertical lifts, and more from a family of brands, all known for durability and performance across construction, industrial, and maintenance applications.

But even the most reliable machines eventually need maintenance.

Our parts are all new, aftermarket replacements that meet or exceed OEM standards, offering the same performance and fit at a fraction of the price. So whether you're searching for general JLG parts, specific JLG lift parts, or expert guidance to help you find the right component, AEP delivers quality, speed, and unmatched customer support.

Every day, workers on aerial lifts risk dropping tools and materials onto the people and equipment below. It happens fast — a wrench slips, a bolt rolls, and suddenly someone on the ground is in danger. Drop protection mesh covers are the simple, effective solution that keeps your crew safe and your jobsite protected.

Mesh basket covers wrap around the interior rails of your aerial lift basket or scissor lift platform, creating a barrier that keeps tools and materials contained while you work at height. They install in minutes with no tools required, and everything you need is included. The open mesh design maintains full operator visibility and allows air to flow freely — so there's no compromise to how you work, only to whether objects can fall.

Whether you operate a Skyjack, JLG, Genie, Snorkel, or any other major brand of scissor lift or boom lift, drop protection mesh covers are an essential addition to any jobsite where aerial equipment is used overhead.

At Aerial Equipment Parts, our mesh basket covers are designed to fit your specific machine

Drop protection for aerial lifts refers to equipment designed to prevent tools, materials, and debris from falling off the platform or basket while working at height. Falling objects are one of the leading causes of jobsite injuries and OSHA citations. A mesh basket cover is one of the most effective and easiest ways to achieve drop protection — it attaches directly to the lift's rails and creates a barrier that keeps items contained without restricting the operator.

A mesh basket cover is a drop protection solution designed to wrap around the interior rails of an aerial lift basket or scissor lift platform. It prevents tools, materials, and debris from falling to the ground below while the lift is in use, helping keep your crew and jobsite safe.

No tools are required. The mesh basket cover installs in minutes and everything you need for a complete install is included in the kit. Simply attach the cover around the interior of the basket before raising the lift.
