Guardrails offer collective protection to an unlimited number of people. They are usually placed at the roof edge, or along the path from a roof entry to the safe zone. Guardrails offer 100% fall prevention. Most importantly, no user knowledge is required.
With guardrails, you can easily turn the entire roof into a safe zone. That means that workers do not need to wear any Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) on the roof.
Freestanding bases make that our guardrails are suitable for every type of roof, terrace or platform. This also eliminates the risk or leaks and water damage, because it’s not necessary to drill holes in the roof. Alternatively, our guardrails can be fixed to the roof edge or to the parapet.
Our guardrails come in different designs: straight, curved or collapsible (XSFlex). The latter can be collapsed so that the guardrails are not visible when they are not used.
Installation is incredibly easy: two persons can install up to 300 meters (approx. 985 ft) in a day.
Our guardrails have different types of corners to suit various roof shapes. Also, they can be equipped with an integrated toeboard (to prevent materials from sliding or rolling of the roof) or with XSEntry (a gate that closes automatically).
Our freestanding XSGuardrails have no impact on the structure. The risk of leakage is eliminated, because it is not necessary to drill holes in the roof. Also, freestanding XSGuardrails can easy be removed.
For roofs with parapets lower than the accepted standard, our fixed guardrails are a good fit. XSPlatforms offers two types of fixed guardrails: XSParapet is fixed to the inside of the parapet, and XSWall is fixed to the top of the parapet.
