Non-Penetrating Guardrail Systems

Permanent non-penetrating guardrail works great for long-term protection on your roof. Wherever frequent traffic or work is being done near a fall hazard, having a permanent guardrail is ideal. Set up your guardrail once and forget about it.

Though it is typically a weighted base design and can technically be moved if need be, the guardrail is engineered to sit in one place indefinitely. Using a heavy weight in a cantilever configuration helps distribute the weight evenly on your roof while exceeding OSHA regulations.

When you have a construction job coming up and need to protect yourself from a fall hazard, temporary non-penetrating guardrails may be your best option. These systems are designed for quick and easy setup, with the ability to tear down and store for later use.

Temporary non-penetrating guardrails are designed with modularity and convenience in mind. Whether it be a pre-built upright post that clamps onto the cement slab or parapet wall or smaller weights bases with sections of railing, these will be portable for moving from job site to job site.

By far our more common configuration, the counterbalance base acts as a cantilever for the guardrail. This allows the use of lighter weights and the spreads out the point load on the roof caused by the guardrail system.

Using a smaller surface area, the post weight base allows for more maneuverability around restricted obstacles. Because of the post weight’s reduced footprint, these weights are heavier than their counterpart.
