One of our most trusted solutions is the Kee Guard rooftop guardrail system – a premium, non-penetrative edge protection system designed for maximum safety and durability.

Kee Guard

What is Kee Guard?

Kee Guard is an innovative, modular, free-standing rooftop guardrail system that offers secure and reliable fall protection. Its unique counterweight mechanism, made from recycled PVC bases, allows for installation without penetrating the roof membrane, ensuring waterproofing and structural integrity remain intact. Constructed from galvanised steel, Kee Guard is built to withstand harsh environmental conditions and provides long-lasting protection for personnel working at height.

The system is adaptable to various roof types, including flat roofs, metal profile surfaces, and standing seam roofs. It is ideal for both new builds and retrofitting existing structures, making it a versatile solution for any industry.

Key Features and Benefits of Kee Guard

The free-standing nature of Kee Guard eliminates the need for drilling or fixing into the roof surface, preventing potential leaks and preserving the roof’s structure.

The counterweight system ensures stability while protecting delicate roof membranes from damage.

Suitable for flat and slightly pitched roofs with up to a 10-degree incline.

Flexible Configurations

Customisable to fit various roof layouts, including open perimeters and roofs with parapet walls.

Compatible with different roofing materials, such as membrane, metal profile, and standing seam surfaces.

Can be adapted for both permanent installations and temporary projects.

Kee Gate: Enhancing Rooftop Access Safety

To further enhance rooftop safety, we offer Kee Gate – a fully adjustable, self-closing safety gate that secures openings such as roof hatches, ladders, and stair access points. The spring-loaded mechanism automatically closes behind the user, significantly reducing the risk of falls and ensuring compliance with safety regulations.

Kee Gate is made from durable, corrosion-resistant materials and integrates seamlessly with Kee Guard systems, providing a complete rooftop safety solution. Available in both single and double configurations, it is the perfect addition to protect your team when transitioning between access points.
