Roof Guardrail Systems
Diversified Fall Protection’s free-standing, non-penetrating guardrail is safer and lighter than most comparable roof safety railing systems. Other portable guardrail systems have larger spacing between each railing, and heavier bases weighing 100 pounds and more as compared to our 57 lb base.
One of the major uses of portable safety railing systems is perimeter guarding along the edges of roof tops. Prudent buyers recognize that because of the wider spaces between each rail, they are buying ‘AIR.’ Furthermore, most engineers would agree; the less weight you place on a roof structure, the better. Roofs are designed for wind, rain and snow loads, not the addition of hundreds of extra pounds of steel.

Design Considerations
Diversified Fall Protection's counterweighted guardrail system is an ideal rooftop fall protection solution, offering a durable, non-penetrating design that ensures compliance with OSHA regulations. Available in 6’, 8’, and 10’ sections, the guardrails feature the SafePro innovative base plate engineered for superior stability while remaining lightweight—almost half the weight of other systems—allowing workers to carry two base plates at a time for faster setup and teardown. The baseplates are also designed to withstand high wind gusts, as many of our clients select guardrail as a permanent roof fall protection solution. The flexible positioning of the base plates provides excellent adaptability around roof edges, skylights, hatches, and other obstructions, making it an excellent choice for both temporary and permanent applications.
Guardrails come standard with a safety yellow powder-coated finish, with custom colors available upon request. If your facility requires additions to an existing LORGUARD system or has project specifications that call for LORGUARD, it remains available for those special circumstances.
