Kee Guard® Folding Guardrail

Unobtrusive Roof Edge Protection

When collective fall protection is the preferred method of providing a safe working environment but it is not desirable to have railings permanently visible on the roofline of a building, Kee Guard folding guardrail provides an ideal solution. The main feature of the system is the unique hinged base foot which enables the guardrail to be quickly and easily lifted into place when work is being carried out, and then simply folded back down again when the work is completed.

Wind Speed Calculator

One of the key points set out in the BS 13700 states that when you specify and install a permanent counterweighted guardrail, you need to carry out a site specific wind calculations. This means you need to take into account location, height of building and exposure level.

Kee Safety offers a FREE wind calculation to the new BS 13700 standard and issues the FREE report upon purchase of a Kee Guard system.

As a manufacturer of counterweighted edge protection, Kee Safety naturally ensures that our range of Kee Guard free standing rooftop guardrail systems comply with all relevant global standards and legislation, including the BS 13700:2021.

Our team can help you with a site-specific wind speed calculation, as well as provide assistance throughout the entire project.
