Kingspan Saferidge 

 

Kingspan Saferidge is a unique fall protection system, intergrated into the roof apex cap detail. Kingspan Saferidge is the only such system approved by Kingspan for installation on Kingspan insulated panels.

Saferidge comprises a high-grade precision-extruded aluminium rail, factory-fitted to a steel apex cap bespoke fabricated for each roof. Saferidge is certified to AS NZS 1891.2 and 1891.4, EN 795 and OHSA 1926.

Saferidge is designed to dissipate fall arrest forces across a wide roof area, minimising potential damage to the roof in a fall arrest event.

Kingspan Saferidge has fixing and sealing details specifically for Kingspan Trapezoidal and Foilback panels. Saferidge is tested and proven with current Kingspan panel specifications.

This Fall Protection System is usually installed during construction to most roof systems, without access to the underside of the roof. It is fixed to the panel outer skin only, using high performance screws. There is no penetration of the insulation within the roof construction and, as the fasteners only fix into the top skin, there is no thermal bridging.

Saferidge has a very low profile and can be colour matched or contrasted to the roof finish, for a discreet or feature finish. The low profile also makes it highly resistant to high wind and snow loading.
