A skylight may look like a solid part of the building, but from a safety perspective, it is a high-risk opening. OSHA classifies skylights as “holes in the roof” because most acrylic or glass domes cannot support the weight of a falling worker. A momentary stumble during routine HVAC maintenance or a roof inspection can lead to a fatal incident. Safeguard Industries skylight guardrails provide a definitive physical barrier that isolates these hazards without breaching your roof’s waterproof membrane.
Protect your roof warranty and your interior assets. Our system utilizes weighted, recycled PVC feet with integrated clamping rings that lock securely onto the skylight curb. This creates a completely freestanding safety perimeter…no drilling, no fasteners, and no potential leak points in your roof surface.
Our systems are engineered to meet or exceed OSHA 29 CFR 1910.23 and 1910.29. They provide a permanent “passive” solution, meaning anyone on your roof is protected immediately…no harnesses, anchors, or specialized training required.
Built for the harshest environments, our railings are available in Anodized Aluminum (A356-T6) or Hot-Dipped Galvanized Steel. The recycled PVC bases are moisture-resistant and will never rust, ensuring a 30-plus year service life with virtually zero maintenance.
Unlike heavy mesh screens that can cast shadows or collect debris, our guardrail design remains open. You maintain 100% of your building’s natural lighting and aesthetic while providing a superior level of fall protection. For sensitive architectural projects, the railings can be set back from the opening to minimize visibility from the ground.
