Roof edge protection increasingly and increasingly important

Working at height in construction very dangerous
Unfortunately, many accidents still happen in the construction industry. Common types of accidents occur with tools or machinery, but falls from greater or lesser heights also result in dozens of injuries and even several deaths in construction every year. These are mainly victims who fall from scaffolding or from flat or sloping roofs.

Roof edge protection as a preventative measure
Consequently, more and more companies are choosing to minimize the danger of falling. One measure often used when working on flat roofs is solid Roof edge protection. Welders, cleaners or roofers are protected from falls from (great) heights via a protective railing securely mounted to the roof edge. Roof edge guards increase safety directly, but are also beneficial for a few other reasons:

• The railing parts are very strong and easy to mount on the eaves. By using roof edge feet, alu-dorton couplers and basalt blocks, the fixing system is kept stable in place.
• Roof edge protection increases your employee's sense of safety and is also positive for the image of your cleaning, construction or roofing company. People see that personnel and safety are really taken seriously by your company. And in the unlikely event something nasty like a fall does happen, with roof edge protection you won't be liable, or at least less so, in the event of accidents.
• Roof edge protection materials are easy and quick to transport. Because the materials can be quickly attached and detached, the installation of roof edge guards takes little time.
• Eaves protection is applicable to all types of buildings, regardless of width, height or specific construction.

A powerful system for optimal safety
Companies that choose to install security beams on the eaves are guaranteed a system that can hold back a lot of weight. Typically, the peak load is about 300 pounds for a three-foot span. Furthermore, there are many companies and providers of eave security to choose from. Due to the large selection of security companies, the price of this type of building security has dropped significantly in recent years. What are you waiting for?
