A corroded and rusted railing is unsafe. The steel Kee Klamp fittings are designed for longevity and strength with hot-dipped galvanization to ensure each connection point remains solid. You can be confident that the railings can last 20 years without showing the least bit of rust, while welded railings typically begin to show rust under two years.

It usually only takes a few measurements, a sketch, and a conversation to prevent access to dangerous areas with our safe and effective alternative to welded railing. The guardrail's modular design makes it easy to configure to your exact specifications. Whether you need a pedestrian walkway guardrail or a commercial handrail, we will work with you to design the layout compliant with OSHA and any standards you need.
You have the option to choose from a variety of finishes. Standard railing comes in galvanized steel or aluminum finishes with additional colors in powder-coat finishes.
Installation requires no special tools or labor. With the modular design, expanding the railing is just as easy as it is to install. The modular components make it easy to add railing sections or even be repurposed in other areas if plans change.
Repairing the railing is easy. Just loosen the surrounding fittings and replace only the damaged fittings and pipe. A traditional welded railing needs to be completely replaced when damaged and installed by a professional welder.
StealthRail collapsible roof fall protection guardrail systems provide clean sight lines and preserve the architectural integrity of your building, while offering perimeter passive rooftop fall protection that meets OSHA requirements. See how it was used on the Pinnacle Bank Area in Lincoln NE. StealthRail is the same rail system as the SafetyRail except that it has a pivot assembly on each leg that allows the rail to fold down or lay down.
Rail sections are constructed of 1-5/8" inch steel tubing, and secure to 96-pound cast iron bases. Bases have four ports each, allowing the rails to be placed in infinite positions. Each section is collapsible, with a one-way pivot assembly that allows the rails to fold down after rooftop work has been completed. When the bases are installed in a run with a 90° return on each end, the combined mass and the geometry of installation creates an OSHA compliant barrier for roof edge protection.
StealthRail collapsible roof guardrail systems require no penetration to the roof surface for installation. Because they’re anchored with baseplates instead of bolted down, these collapsible guardrails can be used as portable, permanent, or temporary roof edge protection solutions.

To meet OSHA regulations for fall protection, a collapsible guardrail system must utilize outriggers (returns/counter weights). Whether the danger side run is 5’ or ’ in length, outriggers must be in place at the beginning and at the end of the run. Outriggers are standard rail kits that are connected at approximately 90° to the danger side run of each end rail section.
