In most situations, OSHA (Std. 29 CFR 1910.23) requires guardrail protection on the exposed sides of openings in roofs and floors. 

BlueWater Mfg. has modified our SafetyRail 2000 guardrail system to meet those safety concerns.  Our Roof Hatch/Skylight Systems exceeds OSHA Std. 29 CFR 1910.23 and 1910.27.  It is the only product available in the market with a gate assembly that meets the same OSHA regulations and requires no drilling into any surface for installation.  The Roof Hatch/Skylight Systems set up in minutes and are easily dismantled for roof repair.  Sized gates enable the Roof Hatch System to be located within 6 inches of the open roof hatch.

We can configure or custom manufacture to any size hatch that is not listed above.  Please contact us for more information.
