Defender Flat Roof Edge Protection Barrier

The Defender Roof Edge Protection systems are free-standing with no requirement for fixings or drilling and subsequently no repair to the roof membrane, they are for flat or nearly flat roofs, maximum pitch 3deg. Also commonly known as weighted handrail system. The systems satisfy the requirements of BS EN ISO14122 part 3 Safety of Machinery - Permanent means of access to machinery - stair ways, step ladders and guard rails and supported br CERAM certification. All Defender Roof Edge Protection systems operate on a counterbalance principle using curved PVC counterweights as the main component. A galvanised malleable iron foot with a protective rubber base supports the handrail post, this includes the integral toeplate facility which is fundamental requirement if there is no perimeter edge stand. All Defender Roof Edge Protection systems include our cradle fittings, this is a major cost saver, allowing the handrail tube to be dropped into place instead of being fed through several fittings as with other systems. All Defender Roof Edge Protection systems are designed to withstand a maximum horizontal load applied perpendicular to the top rail of 300Nm or a single point load of 600Nm.
