Unistrut Roofwalks

Unistrut Roof Walkway Systems One giant leap for walkways that are out of this world. Today's workplace legislation both at State and Local government level demand a high level of safety to protect personnel from injury and hold employers and employees liable for the provision of a safe working environment. This includes an often overlooked area, that of the roof, where access is often required to service and maintain rooftop plant and equipment such as HVAC units.

Roof maintenance is a frequent occurrence particularly for business and industrial buildings, and as a consequence the possibility of damage occurring to the roof. Dishing and punctures, scratches to the roof finish causing rusting, lead to the necessity for expensive repairs or risk of consequential damage. More importantly unsafe roof areas increase the possibility that an accident may occur. Personnel may be exposed to the risk of injury or death from a fall, from or through a roof.

Applications:

Available at either the design stage of a building or as a retro-fit, the Unistrut Roof Walkway System provides the perfect solution to roof access problems.

Applications include but are not limited to, the following:

• Rooftop walkways

• Maintenance and inspection walkways

• Inspection platforms

• Stairs

• Access platforms and walkways

• Emergency fire escapes

Unistrut's Solution:

Available at either the design stage of a building or as a retro-fit, the Unistrut Roof Walkway System provides the perfect solution to roof access problems.
