RoofGuard Rooftop Guardrail Systems

Rooftop Guardrail Systems or Safety Railings are passive fall protection systems that meet or exceed the legislative requirements for working at heights in Canada. They eliminate the need for active fall protection equipment such as harnesses and lanyards, roof anchor systems, horizontal lifelines, and ongoing training requirements.

What is RoofGuard?

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.

1. EVALUATE YOUR FALL PROTECTION NEEDS:

  • Plan ahead to get the job done safely.
  • Assess areas on your rooftop that require access.

2. ASSESS THE RISKS:

  • Are my employees or contractors at risk of a fall?
  • Am I exposing my company to unnecessary fines?

3. IMPLEMENT A SOLUTION:

  • Provide the right fall protection equipment.

Most jurisdictions require the use of specific fall protection measures before, or in addition to, personal protective equipment (PPE). These measures generally include the use of some of the following:

fixed barriers (e.g., handrails, guardrails)

surface opening protection (e.g., covers, guardrails, etc.)

warning barriers/control zones

fall or travel restraint systems (i.e., a system to prevent a worker from falling from a work position, or from travelling to an unguarded edge from which the worker could fall)

fall containment system (e.g., safety nets)

fall arrest systems (i.e., a system that will stop a worker’s fall before the worker hits the surface below)

There may also be specific legal requirements around use of equipment like ladders and scaffolding.

Occupational health and safety laws generally require action when a worker has the potential to fall about 3 metres (10 feet). In most cases, fall protection is required when:

other means of fall protection are not available or possible, such as guardrails

working at a height of 3 metres or more (permanent and/or temporary work areas)

working at a height of less than 3 metres when the surface below could cause a greater injury than just the fall (e.g., machinery; risk of drowning in water or other liquid; open tanks, vats, or pits containing hazardous materials; materials that can shift)

a worker may fall through an opening in the work surface

it is determined that fall protection is necessary
