2026 Disaster & Resilient City Exp Houston

WHEN ONE LIFE IS THE WHOLE STORY For Harold King, manufacturer and owner of Bedlock Safety Products, safer fleet maintenance has never been an abstract idea. If a raised dump bed fails while someone is underneath it, there may be no second chance to decide that five minutes of preparation would have been worth it.

King does not need a large-scale catastrophe to define a disaster. “A disaster does not have to be 10, 100, 10,000, or even 100,000 people,” he says. “A disaster can be one.” That belief sits at the center of Bedlock Safety Products, a company built around a simple but serious problem: how to safely support a raised dump body while maintenance or repairs are being performed underneath it.
