FAQs

Questions about fixed guardrail

Roof pitch, fixings, gates and corners, and how often the system is inspected.

What roof pitch can Kee Guard for metal roofs handle?

Roof edges up to 45 degrees on metal profile and standing seam roofs.

Does it need to be drilled into the roof?

On standing seam roofs the railing clamps to the seam, so the roof does not need to be drilled, anchored or penetrated. Profiled roofs use the galvanised base plate with multiple fixing centres; the survey confirms the right fixing.

Can it include gates and corners?

Yes. Kee Klamp fittings accommodate ridges, valleys, corners, level changes and self-closing gates.

How often should it be inspected?

Annually by a competent person, with records kept. Mantech runs scheduled inspections through our inspection service.
