RoofGuard Classic 18’ Kit
One Tool to Assemble.
Ergonomically Designed Nesting Baseplates for Counter Balance.
Arguably the easiest rooftop safety system on the market to install, RoofGuard utilizes a single tool for assembly.
Our systems revolve around a unique, stackable, low profile 40lb baseplate.
Kits come equipped with all materials required to assemble the system, meaning no unnecessary wait times or additional costs for parts, materials, or tools.
Our RoofGuard baseplates have been engineered specifically to eliminate the need for permanent attachment to rooftops. Easy to stack. Easy to ship. Easy to manoeuvre.
ROOFGUARD CLASSIC KITS Our Fall Protection Guardrail Systems eliminate the need for active Fall Protection equipment such as Safety Harnesses/Lanyards, Roof Anchor Systems, or Horizontal Lifelines. This means no fines for compliance violations from inadequate or nonexistent rooftop safety training or products. Rooftop Guardrail Systems come standard in three distinct kits.
9’ RoofGuard Classic Kit RGC-KIT-09
18’ RoofGuard Classic Kit RGC-KIT-18V
This Guardrail System provides 9ft of leading edge Fall Protection. It requires no rooftop penetration, and can be categorized as a passive Fall Protection solution.
Our most popular design offers 18ft of leading edge Fall Protection, with two 6ft sections for weighted ballast.
This particular system is ideal for providing reliable Fall Protection around HVAC units, Vents, near Access Ladders, Antennas, Valves, Solar Panels, or simply near frequently travelled areas that require routine maintenance.
The hinged, variable fitting in the centre of the 18ft section, allows for complete versatility when installing the system. It can be straight, at 90 degrees, or anything in between, depending on your requirements.

RoofStep
12
RoofStep is a counter weighted, freestanding Fall Protection system, which provides safe and reliable access up and over elevation changes including parapet walls. Twelve distinct kits have been designed which include; engineered ladders on the face and back of the parapet wall, a platform over the parapet area to protect sensitive roof membrane or coping material from damage, and Fall Protection guardrails with kits where falls from one elevation to another may occur.
--------
-----------------------------------
ROOFSTEP
A walk-through hand railing and a return ladder from a parapet to the roof assures safe entry and exit, when using our system. RoofStep utilizes our baseplate system in order to ensure optimum weight is allotted at engineered approved points, with no drilling into the roof membrane required. RoofStep is a reliable Fall Protection system designed to eliminate falls without altering your roofs integrity.
Ladder Series (LD) RoofStep systems help workers move from one level to another, and have guardrails on the upper side to help prevent a fall to the lower level. Crossover Series (XS) RoofStep systems help workers move up and over obstructions to similar roof levels, and have 45-degree bracing on both sides for stability.
All RoofStep Kits come standard with a lower 45-degree bracing for stability. Two RoofGuard baseplates are utilized per arm to provide adequate counter weight to our system and stabilize the complete kit.
