Edge Protection – Guardrails and Handrails


Last Updated: 19th April 2022

Collective measures of protection for personnel regularly Working at Height, as recommended by the HSE’s hierarchy of control.

Heightsafe supply a wide range of Guardrail Systems to suit your specific building requirements, helping to eliminate height safety risks that your employees or contractors are exposed to whilst working at height. Our designs offer the flexibility to cover all roof types, whilst also providing a simple modular system that is easy to install for collective roof edge protection.

When you choose Heightsafe, you can expect:

  • A nationwide service for guardrail installation, supply only and hire
  • Very competitive pricing (trying our best to beat any like for like quote)

It is recommended that all collective protection systems should be tested and inspected at frequencies not exceeding 12 months, dependent on frequency of use. Heightsafe also provide Testing and Maintenance, ensuring your collective edge protection is compliant.
