Tubular snow guards, transition bridges, roofing ladders, metal profile roof railings. Roof fencing with snow retainer Snow guards for roof railings and stairs

The main purpose of roofing safety elements, by definition, is to preserve human life. In addition, they make the roof easier to operate. Safety equipment includes ladders, fences, support (transition) bridges. They prevent people from falling from roofs during installation, repair or maintenance. Safety elements also include snow guards, a variety of devices designed to ensure safe and quick evacuation of residents from upper floors in emergency situations.

During the construction process, it is important to constantly remember that after installing the coating, there should be unimpeded access to exit, and there should also be the possibility of free movement along the surface for various purposes: checking and cleaning chimneys, inspecting abutment areas, maintaining drains, antennas, installing new equipment, checking exits ventilation. Without the accompanying roofing elements, it seems unlikely to complete this entire range of work. After all, even if the roof is flat, there is always a danger of slipping, deforming or damaging roof covering. In the recent past, homemade wooden stairs or ladders, usually attached to the top of the ridge. But they all had one big drawback: a limited service life. Plus, it is inconvenient to use and unpresentable in appearance.

In modern reality there are other simple and effective solutions. They will not violate the concept of the project, will not spoil the design, will give the roof a finished look and will be able to protect you from many problems. The most advanced technologies at the moment are used in production, powder painting lines are used. And at the sales stage, products that have an aesthetic appearance are already offered, and the buyer can easily choose products to match the color of his own roof. Fences, bridges, and stairs can ensure safety and comfort when servicing the roofing, and snow retainers do a good job of holding snow masses and ice from avalanche-like snow falling from the roof in the Russian winter.

The number of all components used depends on the geometry and complexity of the roof, on the angles of inclination of the slopes and their sizes, on climatic features region, as well as the methods for installing security elements. When professionally installed, they help avoid a lot of trouble and eliminate many difficulties during the operation and maintenance of roofs. Safety elements are a very important part of the roof. It’s not worth saving on this, since in the end you can lose significantly more. Both financially and, this is worth paying special attention to, in terms of your own health, and, sometimes, life itself.

So, what is included in the security features?

• Roof perimeter fencing.
• Transitional steps and stairs.
• Wall stairs.
• Stairs on slopes.
• Snow guards.

Separately, it is necessary to note the measures that ensure safety during the installation of roofing elements - plumbs, drains, protective aprons and so on. For this purpose, unobstructed exits to the work site are equipped, and fences are installed along the perimeter of the building. Workplaces and approaches to them are equipped with personal and collective protective equipment, which must be manufactured and tested in accordance with existing standards and regulations. Carrying out work on flat roofs where there is no permanent fence, a temporary fence should be installed, the height of which should be at least 120 cm.

In Europe, for several decades now, there have been high standards and requirements for safety systems in the construction of roofs. No building can be put into operation without meeting accepted standards roof safety systems.

Not in Russia yet mandatory requirements By roofing safety for private houses, but everyone who is building or has already built their own home thinks about how to protect themselves and their property from snow falling off the roof, and also, over time, thinks about providing access to the roof for its maintenance or repair.

Borge products meets the highest safety standards and allows you to create a complete roof safety system.

What does a roof safety system consist of?

• Facade stairs. To safely climb onto the roof, provide access to the roof for maintenance or repairs.
• Roof ladders. For safe movement up/down pitched roof, provide access to roofing objects.
• Transitional bridges. For safe movement on the roof along the slope.
• Roof fencing. To prevent falls from the roof during maintenance and repairs.
• Snow retainers and snow stops. To protect against avalanches of snow and ice from rolling blood.
• Roofing accessories. To ensure the normal functioning of the roof.

How to select and calculate roof safety elements (tubular snow guards, walkways, roof ladders, roof railings) and whichbetter for the roof of your house?

Roof safety elements are:

Devices that prevent people and any objects from falling from the roof.
Devices that serve as tow trucks for people on the roof or on upper floors.

Various snow guards, fencing in the form of battens, transition bridges, ladders for roofing works and emergency stairs - here sample list devices that include roof safety elements.

The above roof safety systems must be used on absolutely all buildings, since these systems serve as the main guarantor for preserving the life and health of people located both on the roof itself and in the immediate vicinity of it.

Safety precautions observed when constructing a roof are closely related to technological features carrying out this process. People exercising this type work, at a minimum, they must know what safety precautions are, how to comply with them, and what additional safety equipment must be used to carry out work when installing the roof.

Range

Universal roofing ladder - L = 1860 mm - from 1990 RUR/piece.

Wall and roof ladders are used to safely climb onto the roof and approach chimney, antennas. Stairs can also be used as fire escape ladders, providing access to the building in emergency situations.

Tubular snow guard (galvanized with powder paint) - L = 3000 mm - from 999 RUR/piece.

A tubular snow retainer will protect residents and property from avalanche snow falling from the roof. Must be installed above the entrance, at each level of multi-level roofs and above skylights. The principle of operation of snow retainers or snow barriers is to retain snow masses on the roof of a building until the ice and snow that have accumulated on the roof over the winter melt and the water formed as a result of melting naturally drains away. drainage system. Unique scheme The action of another type of snow retainer - tubular snow retainer - is to crush a large snow mass into small portions and pass them through the roofing and snow retainer tubes. Thus, it decreases kinetic energy snow mass falling from the roof and its destructive energy is reduced.

Roof fencing - L = 1860 mm - from RUB 1,490/piece.

Protects against falling from the roof during work. Is mandatory element for multi-storey buildings.

Transition bridge - L = 1250 mm - from 1990 rub./piece.

For moving from a ladder, skylight or roof hatch to a chimney, antenna and others roofing elements requiring maintenance.

Roof safety elements are intended to preserve the life and health of people. The purpose of using the elements is to provide protection for both those working at height and those below. Also, roof safety systems make the roof easier to operate.

Roof safety systems

After the roof installation work is completed, it will be necessary to periodically go out onto the roof to inspect it. From time to time, pipes should be cleaned and repaired, and the roof should be cleared of snow or leaves.

Roof safety systems and elements are additional devices, mounted on the roof of buildings. These include: fences, snow retainers, roofing ladders and transition bridges, indispensable accessories for installation, repair and operation of the roof, and also include support (transition) bridges, snow retainers, elements that prevent various objects from falling from roofs.

After the roof installation work is completed, it will be necessary to periodically go out onto the roof to inspect it. From time to time, pipes should be cleaned and repaired, and the roof should be cleared of snow or leaves. Properly installed roof safety elements will prevent possible difficulties that may arise during the operation of the roof.

When arranging the roof of a low-rise building, it is important to choose not only the optimal roofing material from the point of view of the developer and future residents, but also suitable snow retention safety elements. Roof safety systems include:

Snow guards on the roof;

• Roof railings;

• Roof ladders;

• Transitional bridges (roof bridge).

In Russia, the requirements for fencing elements and their installation are specified in GOST 25772-83. Their use makes it possible to prevent uncontrolled melting of snow layers and eliminate the associated risks of causing damage to cars, roofing systems, human health and life. Also, the installation of fences and stairs is necessary to ensure safety when performing roofing work, cleaning gutters, and so on. A large assortment various roofing materials (metal tiles, roofing slates, corrugated sheets and others) also led to a variety of elements of security systems and methods of their installation.

Choosing a security system depending on the type of roofing material

The most common type of snow guard is considered to be tubular: round section profile allows the structure to withstand increased weight loads, the system provides portioned passage of snow, as a result of which the avalanche-like fall of snow and ice is prevented. Such elements are often used when installing seam roofs.

Another popular type of snow guards is lattice. Thanks to its design, it becomes a reliable obstacle for both snow and thin ice. It is used on roofs covered with metal or ceramic tiles. Installation of such systems is carried out using clamping supports, which allow securely fastening the protection elements without the need for weight.

Although flexible roofing materials (for example, asphalt shingles) are able to some extent to prevent uncontrolled snow melting, however, the installation of a snow retention system is still required. Its installation in this case is carried out using self-tapping screws and universal supports.
Let us once again list what the roof should be equipped with: snow guards, bridges, safety hooks, fencing supports and others. You can contact us for a calculation of the security system elements required for your roof.

When choosing elements of a roof safety system, not only the type of structure and the maximum design load which it can withstand, but also the aesthetics of the product. After installation, the system should create the impression of a single composition with a copper (or any other) roof and at the same time reliably perform its protective functions.
You can always purchase snow guards for metal tiles and other safety elements from the famous German brand Flender Flux, which has a history of approximately 250 years.

When designing and arranging a roof, it is possible to install roof safety elements. These are components that are used to make operation and maintenance comfortable and safe. They are installed during the installation of roofing material or after the roof is installed. They look more attractive than previously used wooden gangways and stairs, and are more convenient, reliable and durable.

Roof safety elements are used for:

• convenient movement along the roof surface during cleaning chimney, covering repairs, inspection of joints, cleaning of gutters, etc.;
• protection of roof coverings from mechanical damage which can occur when walking on the roof.

Such products are selected to match roofing material. Due to this, they do not attract attention to themselves and look neat and aesthetically pleasing. The Euromet company offers to buy roof safety elements at favorable prices. We supply such components for roofs from different coating(smooth and profiled, for metal tiles or soft roof). In the catalog - big choice designs, options and colors.

Snow guards

Installed along the perimeter of the roof along the overhangs. Installation locations are selected so that they are above load-bearing walls. In these areas, reinforced sheathing is performed or a continuous flooring is installed. The type, size, and number of tubular snow retainers are determined by the area of ​​the roof, the angle of inclination and the length of the slope. For the roofs of private houses, one row of snow guards along the roof overhangs is usually sufficient. This row is installed at a distance of 35 cm from the edge of the roof. If the length of the slope is more than 8 m, a second row of snow guards is additionally installed. They are also installed above skylights if they are on the roof.

Such products are used to keep snow on the roof and prevent it from falling onto blind areas, flower beds, and lawns in large volumes. Some types of snow guards allow snow to pass down in small, safe portions, which makes it possible to reduce snow load on the roof. Tubular snow guards consist of vertical supports and horizontal tubes attached to them. Euromet specialists recommend placing the supports at a distance of about 1 m from each other.

Instead of support brackets, in some cases, planks are used, which are mounted using reinforcing strips on the sheathing. For this purpose, elongated ridge screws are used. To fasten the tubular part in this case, standard roofing screws are used.

Snow guards can be lattice (a steel lattice is installed instead of horizontal tubes) or made in the form individual elements, which are placed on the roof with a given pitch.

Roof railings

The roof fence is formed by a vertical steel grid mounted on supports. The supports are mounted on continuous sheathing using ridge screws through the deflection of the metal tile wave. When fastening with self-tapping screws, EPDM gaskets are additionally used to protect the hole in the metal tile from contact with moisture.

The supports are installed along the roof overhangs in increments of 90 cm. During installation, they are adjusted according to the angle of inclination of the slope to ensure vertical position. After adjusting and fixing the supports, the gratings are installed. When hanging use bolted connections. If mounting holes are not made on the supports, they are drilled in the upper and lower parts. In the upper part, M10x35 bolts are used to fasten the grille, in the lower part - M8x55, the diameters of the mounting holes are 11 and 9 mm, respectively. The open end holes are closed with plugs (supplied in the kit), and the areas connecting the sections to each other and to the supports are treated with sealant.

Correctly installed increases the safety of movement on the roof and protects people and objects from falling.

Transitional bridges

used to move along the roof. Their design increases the safety of movement: your feet do not slip on them, every step is safe. Additionally, the bridges protect the coating from mechanical damage: you do not walk on the metal tiles and do not scratch them.

Transitional bridges have the following advantages:

• you can buy the required number of sections and connecting elements to install a bridge on the roof required length and configurations;
• convenient movement across the slope for servicing junctions, chimneys, exits, etc.;
• water and snow do not accumulate on the surface of the bridge - due to the lattice structure, the bridge remains clean and dry;
• you can adjust the angle of the structure individually, depending on the angle of the slope on a specific section of the roof.

The bridges are installed on reinforced sheathing, secured with ridge screws, and bolted connections are used during assembly. According to Euromet employees, they look neat, last a long time and increase the safety of roof operation and maintenance.

Roof ladders

- a structure that is used to climb a slope to a ridge, hatch, or pipe. Installed together with a wall ladder, may have different lengths and design.

Installation procedure

When arranging the roof, reinforced or continuous sheathing is performed in the places where the support brackets of the roof ladder are installed. When assembling the stairs, the support brackets are connected to the sections. It is better to determine in advance the required length of the stairs and cut the last section to length, if required, before installation. A hacksaw is used for cutting.

When installing support brackets on the roofing, bolts and screws are used. The areas of connections and abutments of the brackets to the metal tiles are protected with sealant. In the upper part, using a pair of brackets, the ladder is secured to the ridge beam.

The staircase on the wall is mounted together with the roofing staircase. At the first stage, the structure is assembled. The handrails are attached to the racks of the roof ladder with brackets.

Wall brackets are placed on the racks and secured with clamps. Pairs of brackets are installed under the lower and upper steps of each section.

If required, handrails, brackets, sections are cut with a hacksaw to the required dimensions. After assembling the structure, the brackets are attached to the wall with anchors. At the top of the stairs, hanging brackets are used that are attached to the rafters or sheathing board. The connections are not tightened tightly before installation: all fasteners and joints are finally fixed after installing the brackets and leveling the structure.
