Roof Hatch Safety Railing

Roof Hatch Safety Railing

KeeHatch® Roof Hatch Safety Railing for safe passage through roof type access hatches. Provides protection against fall events through roof opening while the access hatch lid is open. These safety rail systems meet OSHA Standard CFR 29 1910.23 and CFR 29 1910.27. The safety railing is 42″ high and meets all OSHA load standards. Common sizes include: 2-‘6″ x 3″ safety railing and 3′ x 3’ safety railing. If the roof hatch is purchased from R&S, the corner brackets are factory installed prior to shipment which reduces field assembly time. Safety rail system is aluminum to reduce corrosion and to keep the overall weight down. The railing also serves as a stable grab rail for the user.

This system does not require special tools for installation. All kits include step-by-step instructions as well. These simple kits allow for easy field adjustments for a proper fit. Works with all roof hatches. Standard sizes are in the tabs below, with custom sizes available upon request.

A self closing gate and ladder safety post will complete this safety system. Both ship in safety yellow. Gate width cut to size in the field for a perfect fit. Gate automatically closes behind the climber to protect the opening after use.
