Complete Skylight Fall Protection Solutions

Working on rooftops comes with significant risks, particularly around skylights, which can present serious fall hazards if not properly protected. Access Safety Specialist delivers a full range of skylight protection systems designed to safeguard workers and ensure compliance with safety standards across NSW and ACT. Our solutions are tailored to meet diverse building requirements while minimising disruption to roof access and maintenance.

Skylight Cages

Skylight cages serve as elevated barriers installed over standalone skylights to shield rooftop personnel from potential falls. Crafted from durable, high-strength aluminium lattice, these cages may also incorporate a reinforced aluminium frame for additional stability, especially when accommodating larger skylights.

Skylight Fall Protection Covers

Our skylight fall protection covers are engineered using corrosion-resistant, heavy-duty aluminium lattice. These covers act as a secure barrier over translucent roof panels, effectively preventing accidental falls through fragile roofing should someone inadvertently step, trip, or lose balance near a skylight.

Skylight Safety Signage

Clear and visible safety signage forms an essential component of any skylight protection strategy. Proper signage ensures that all rooftop workers are alerted to hazardous areas, reducing the risk of accidents even in locations where cages or covers have already been installed.

Custom Rooftop Fall Protection, Designed for Compliancechevronorangesvgfill3363
Access Safety Specialist provides turnkey skylight protection solutions tailored to your roof type and worker access needs. Our team integrates supporting safety systems to guarantee accessibility, performance, and compliance.

Walkways and Crossovers

Walkways identify safe zones and create routes around skylights. Crossovers bridge over glazed panels or fragile sheeting for uninterrupted, safe movement.

Safety Signage

Highly visible signage is essential—even with physical barriers—helping reduce liability and protect workers from hidden fall risks.

Guardrail Systems

Ideal for larger roof structures, guardrails offer a passive fall protection method to physically block access to high-risk skylight areas.
