Collective protection systems offer a robust and reliable solution for preventing falls in high-risk environments. By providing continuous protection across a work area, these systems eliminate the need for individual fall arrest equipment, reducing the risk of human error and ensuring consistent safety.
Collective protection systems are particularly effective in situations where workers frequently move around or are exposed to multiple fall hazards. They offer a proactive approach to fall prevention, minimising the potential for accidents and enhancing overall workplace safety.
Based on the Health and Safety Hierarchy of Controls collective protection measures should be prioritised over personal protection measures.
ApexFS can offer a range of collective protection measures, from fixed or free standing guardrails in either aluminium or galvanised steel to skylight protection systems.
Free Standing Guardrails
Our range of free standing guardrail systems are an excellent choice for anyone looking to improve the safety for those working on their roofs or to replace outdated or non-compliant anchor systems. Not only do they provide a much safer workplace, they are also non penetrative, meaning the integrity of your roof is maintained.
Fixed Guardrails
​Whether your roof has a composite panel or standing seam buildup or indeed a parapet ApexFS has the solution for you. We offer a range of fixed guardrail solutions that are secure, cost effective and aesthetically pleasing.
​Skylight Protection
Fragile surfaces such as unprotected skylights are one of the most dangerous hazards present on many of our roofs today. With the explosion in solar PV installations recently, they are posing a particular hazard as access is now required to areas of roofs not needed before. Unfortunately, falls through skylights account for a significant number of fatalities and serious injuries from falls from height each year.
ApexFS can provide guidance and solutions to this particular problem.
