Skylight Covers
Skylight Fall Protection Covers That Meet Canadian OHS Requirements
According to Canadian OHS regulations, any roof opening, including skylights, must be protected against fall hazards—regardless of whether the skylight appears secure or closed. These openings often give a false sense of safety but can present serious risks to workers at height.
Our Skylight Covers offer a durable, passive fall protection solution designed to prevent accidental falls through industrial and commercial skylights. As a non-intrusive, maintenance-free system, these covers do not require PPE or specialized worker training, making them a simple and cost-effective addition to your rooftop safety plan.
Key features include:
CSA & Canadian OHS-compliant design
Custom-fit options to suit any skylight shape, size, or configuration
Corrosion-resistant materials built to withstand harsh Canadian weather
Tool-free, easy installation, no rooftop penetration required
Our skylight safety covers are fabricated using weather-resistant mesh or acrylic materials, offering long-lasting protection and preserving light flow without compromising safety.
Ideal for new builds or retrofit applications, skylight covers are a critical component of your rooftop fall protection system. For complete coverage, pair them with RoofGuard Guardrails or RoofWalk Walkway Systems.
