GrateSafe® R-Panel Metal Roof Walkways
CSI Division 07-7246 Safe Rooftop Walk Products & Handrail
GrateSafe® R-Panel Metal Roof Walkways provide safe access to rooftop equipment while eliminating damage to roof panels from foot traffic. Walkways use custom supports that are secured to the roof panel with Fab-Lok® Fasteners for a complete weather-tight seal. System features 18 GA galvanized steel planks, pierced and punched for a sturdy, anti-skid surface. Planks are 12″ wide x 10′ long and interlock so walkways can install in various widths. In addition, optional OSHA-compliant handrail and toe kick integrate seamlessly. The GrateSafe® walkway system ships complete and is compatible with any R-Panel roof. Orders include CAD drawing with support locations, roof attachments and overall roof walkway layout.
