If you want to provide safe access to rooftop equipment and eliminate damage to your roof panels, you need a roof catwalk system. These systems attach with clamps that don’t penetrate the standing seam roof panels, and they are made of galvanized steel planks with a sturdy, anti-skid surface. Industrial walkways come with planks that interlock and provide a safe place for foot traffic.
Metal Roof Walkways
It is important to make sure that there is a safe place for foot traffic, as it offers safety for workers and protection for your roof panels. You can choose a roof catwalk system that is made of galvanized steel planks, and each is pierced and punched for a sturdy, anti-skid surface. The planks are twelve inches wide and ten feet long, and they interlock. This allows you to customize the design based on the style and size of your roof.
Optional Accessories
When you get a roof catwalk system, you can also add optional accessories. For example, you can get optional six-inch high toe kicks for added safety, and you can add an OSHA-compliant handrail on one or both sides of the walkway. The system also comes with custom finish options, and the planks can be pitch-corrected when you request it. They also offer a swinging access gate for entry points, and you can get crossover stairs for pipe crossings or other obstructions. This allows you to provide a safe space for any foot traffic or workers who need to be up on the roof.
