Guardrail System
A pedestrian guardrail system is one of the best ways to provide safety for people who work at heights. The equipment and apparatus provide a comprehensive level of safety. The barriers are engineered for the safety of commercial and residential employees when they are working at height.
In this blog, we will talk about different types of guardrail systems.
The most common guardrail systems are:
- Standard Guardrails
- Freestanding Guardrails
- Radius Guardrails
- Parapet Guardrails
- Top-Fix Guardrails
1. Standard Guardrails
This type of guardrail is probably the most popular. Standard guardrails are easy to install. They provide protection from the dangers that are present on the roof and other similar areas.
2. Freestanding Guardrails
Freestanding guardrails have an integrated counterbalance system for the safety of workers. They are mostly used on flat rooftops.
3. Radius Guardrails
They are commonly used for commercial rooftops. Often available in forms such as convex and concave. It is also possible to use them where roads have very steep sides.
4. Parapet Guardrails
This type of guardrail is used where reducing the tension of the parapet wall is needed. The system also consists of handrails.
5. Top-Fix Guardrails
Top-Fix guardrails are used when a parapet wall is too low and poses a risk of falling.
