What is Guardrails/ Roofguards
RoofGuard is a freestanding modular guardrail system that is counterweighted in order to meet lateral force requirements. This design facilitates swift and effortless installations without the need for welding, drilling or bolting into the actual roof structure. Without direct or permanent attachments to the rooftop, resealing is not required, ensuring that unexpected leaks do not occur.
With our all-new, redesigned nesting baseplates are stackable, which allows for a number of benefits such as stability on various roof surfaces, ease of use when installing (moving baseplates to different areas of a job site) and use on metal, various membranes and BUR style roofing. Furthermore, RoofGuard can be reconfigured during installation to work in almost any situation. Options are available in convenient kit formats or custom solutions as required.
Have peace of mind knowing that each of our RoofGuard Rooftop Guardrail systems comes with a sign-off from our in-house engineering team. And as a passive solution, RoofGuard Rooftop Guardrail is the preferred method of fall protection as training your staff is not required.
The RoofGuard Classic system is designed to protect the most common working at heights hazard, a rooftop or any other exposed edge. Distance from the edge of an elevated surface is the key factor when it comes to this type of hazard. If someone is within 6 feet of the edge of a rooftop or other exposed edge that is 3 metres (10 feet) or more above the ground, fall protection is required. Some scenarios have a lower height requirement (above dangerous machinery, hazardous materials, etc.) which we have covered in an article called Working at Heights Legislation and Guardrail Fall Protection in Canada.
