Choosing the Right Roof Guardrail for Your Project

Choosing the right roof guardrail for your project is essential. You’ll need to ensure it’s OSHA compliant, durable and affordable. FIXFAST USA can help you find the right product for your project.

OSHA compliant roof guardrail systems come in a variety of styles and are available in both steel and aluminum construction. They are perfect for any rooftop application and can be easily customized to meet your needs.

OSHA-compliant guardrail systems are typically used to protect the leading edges of roofs, where there is a risk of falling. They are a simple and cost-effective solution that can reduce the number of accidents and keep your employees safe.

OSHA also requires guardrails on all open sides of elevated work locations, including platforms, runways and ramps that are more than 30 inches above the floor or ground. Where there is not enough clearance for a 42-inch top rail, a lower guardrail or a combination of guardrails and toeboards is required.

OSHA requires a minimum of two mid-rails and two toeboards to be installed on the raketop or parapet edge. These guardrails must be designed to withstand a force of at least 150 pounds applied in any downward or outward direction.
