How to Choose the Right Roof Edge Protection
When it comes to selecting the right roof edge protection system, one of the most common questions we receive at Australian Scaffold is: “Which product best suits my project?” With a wide range of edge protection solutions available, making the right choice is essential for worksite safety, compliance, and efficiency.
Factors to Consider When Choosing Roof Edge Protection
Selecting the best system for your project depends on several factors, including the type of construction, the roof structure, and compliance requirements. Here are the key points to consider:
1. Type of Project: Residential, Commercial, or Civil
Different projects require different solutions:
- Residential projects often use fascia-mounted or rafter-mounted systems for tiled or metal roofs.
- Commercial buildings typically require parapet-mounted or slab clamp systems.
- Civil projects may need custom edge protection solutions tailored to large-scale infrastructure work.
2. Roof Structure & Material
Understanding the roof type is crucial:
- Metal and tile roofs: Require specific brackets that attach securely without damaging the roof.
- Concrete structures: Slab-mounted or parapet clamp systems work best for stable and robust installation.
3. WorkSafe Compliance & Australian Standards
All roof edge protection systems must comply with AS/NZS 4994.1:2023 and WorkSafe regulations. Our products are designed to meet or exceed these safety standards.
4. Ease of Installation & Efficiency
Time is money in construction. Choosing an easy-to-install system can reduce labour costs and downtime. Our systems, such as the Butlin 360, are designed for fast assembly and maximum safety.
