Working Platform and Walkway System - Ascent Aluminium Walkway For Metal Profile Roofs

The Ascent™ aluminium walkway for metal profile roofs is a standardized, modular system allowing the design of anti-slip compliant walkways for access on all major metal profile roofing systems. The walkway is affixed to the standing seam roof via non-penetrative standing seam clamps and creates a level free-draining surface which both protects the roof from foot traffic and where fitted with guardrail, provides collective protection to the worker. The anti-slip walkway can also be stepped to suit the pitch of the roof to aid passage up a steep roof slope.

Features and benefits:

• Anti-slip and level free draining walking surface.
• Can be supplied with or without handrails.
• Creates safe access.
• Supported off the roof on non-penetrative recycled rubber support feet.
• A guardrail can be added to one or both sides of a walkway.
• With or without a handrail.
• Optional toeboard if required.
• Can be supplied with a range of fixing kits to suit different roof profiles.
• UKCA/ CE marked.
• Designed and tested in accordance with: BS EN 516:2006 Class 1 Type C, meeting all health and safety requirements, BS EN ISO 14122-3:2016 where a handrail is fitted, BS 4592-0:2006+A1:2012 for loadbearing, and BS 7976-2:2002+A1:2013 for anti-slip.
