Nationwide OSHA Compliant Fall Protection
The Dangers of Skylights
While domed skylights provide character to the interior of buildings and natural light, they also pose a serious fall hazard for those working on the rooftop. OSHA actually makes no distinction between holes and unguarded skylights, therefore requiring the skylight either be designed to meet a required load test, or some guarding is provided to protect workers in the event of a fall. Please don’t overlook unprotected skylights on your rooftop, and ensure those on the rooftop are safe by supplying our Skylight Screen, Skyview Skylight Guardrail, or Skyguard Skylight cage.
Skylight Fall Protection Screen
The Skylight Screen is the most economical solution to skylight safety issues. The screens for skylights are made of galvanized mesh with compression channels on either end of the skylight making it a completely non-penetrating skylight screen and both OSHA and CALOSHA compliant. Our durable skylight fall protection screens are made in the USA and ship quickly from our warehouse.
