garde-corps autoportants
An industrial guardrail is a collective protective device designed to prevent falls from height. Working at height is the leading cause of workplace accidents in the construction industry. It is therefore important to use effective and durable protective equipment such as permanent guardrails.
This type of protection consists of a rail, a sub-rail, and a baseboard. Its height is generally between 1 meter and 3.6 feet from the floor.
Like all equipment used for working at height, guardrails must comply with certain rules. Guardrails for roof terraces, roof guardrails, and all industrial guardrails must comply with standards.
At Echelle Canada, you can be sure you are choosing high-quality industrial guardrails that are:
