Perimeter Safety System Benefits

 

 

Smarter

 

 

 

 

Our Perimeter Safety System deploys

standardized post-screw components

that work on all base plates.

 

 

Our posts are inserted and removed

in just 11 seconds - 109 times faster

than using angle irons.

 

 

These posts are all re-usable.

 

 

 

Two cable guides are mounted on each

post.  Just two twists of the wrist is all it takes to string each cable to a post - six times faster than with angle irons.  And it's six times faster to unstring those same

cables.

 

 

 

Our base plates are permanently installed. Thus they can be used for tie-off during initial construction and on roofs they can be reused for any later maintenance for tie-off with our various D-ring anchor points.

 

 

Safer

 

The Perimeter Safety System components

meet and often exceed OSHA safety

standards for passive fall restraint guardrail

systems or when used as a personal fall

arrestor anchor point.

 

 

 

All posts exceed OSHA's 200-pound side load requirement.  And all anchor points exceed OSHA's 5,000-pound tie-off load requirement.

 

 

Since our base plates are either welded

at the fabricator or installed with two-part

epoxy, no fire watch is required.  There

is not cutting torch.  No fire danger.  No

hazard to your workers.  No need for

fire extinguishers and safety glasses.

 

 

Angle iron removal involves a cutting

torch or grinder.  This creates the

danger of knee, eye or finger injury, or

of burns.  It can result in curtain wall

damage.  With Perimeter, there are no

angle irons to remove.  The dangers

are eliminated.

 

 

In a slab-grabber configuration, they

can get loose, creating the danger of

a fall.  You cannot tie off to the angle

iron.  With Perimeter, you can tie-off

with the post while drastically reducing

the time exposed at the edge of the

building.

 

 

 

Leaner

 


With Perimeter you can achieve dramatic perimeter safety savings.  On a typical 30-story steel frame construction job you can save 2,600 labor hours and $330,000.

 

On a typical 30-story concrete frame building, you can save 4,600 labor hours and $381,000.

 

And, because of the re-usability of our posts and corner assemblies, you save even more on each successive project.

Greener

 

 

 

For a typical 30-story steel frame construction job, thanks to the re-usability of our posts, you eliminate fully 27 tons of iron angle waste.
