Clamp Handrail Systems
Clamp guardrail has an adjustable bracket allowing for flexible installation over copings of various widths and angles. This system can be used to raise the height of an existing parapet wall if it is lower than the minimum height recommended.
This system is an easily installed, lightweight collective measure ideal for re-roofing projects, where the weight or loadings on the roof are an issue or when there are obstructions on the roof such as plant or ducting.
This is the preferred method of fall protection should working at height be unavoidable. The system is suitable for multiple users at any time, requiring basic working at height training making it the ideal solution for regular and long duration maintenance at roof level.
The system uses a simple clamp mechanism meaning there is no need for drilling or penetration of the roof membrane – suitable for use on good quality coping stones which are capable of withstanding the additional loading exerted by the system.
Lightweight material and quick installation make this solution a simple and cost effective rooftop safety system. These systems must be inspected by a suitable Working at Height Specialist Company a minimum of every 12 months.
