Our ABS Guard OnTop Weight guard rail system is designed for penetration-free installation on flat roofs with an inclination of up to 10°. The system is counterweighted using weights. This high-quality guard rail is made from weatherproof aluminium and comes with straight posts. There is a large selection of connecting and terminating elements to choose from - allowing you to install a tailormade collective protection solution. Thanks to the flexible angular elements, you can easily adapt your railing to the course of the roof, even around almost any corner.

No parapet? No problem! We also offer an optional toeboard for our guard rail systems. This can be used in zones that do not have a parapet or appropriate edge protection. Our roof guard rail system can also be fitted with a special ABS Guard OnTop Gate element. This provides easy access to the secured area.

You need very few tools to be able to install this roof guard rail system. The knee and handrails can be shortened using a tube cutter in a matter of minutes and are fixed in place using practical plastic clamp covers. No additional drilling is required. Our package also includes special fleece material that can be placed underneath the weights to protect the roof membrane.
