Roof and façade security systems
Introduction to security systems
Safety systems on roofs and façades are essential to ensure the safety of work at height.
These systems are not only important for safety reasons, but are also prescribed by laws and standards. The core systems include anchor pointssafety railings, safety nets and personal protective equipment (PPE).
Legal requirements for fall protection
In Germany, the regulations of the employers’ liability insurance associations and the DGUV regulate the requirements for fall protection. The standards DIN EN 795 for anchorage devices and DIN EN 13374 for temporary protection systems are particularly relevant. Compliance with these regulations not only protects employees, but also protects companies against liability risks.
Advantages of fall protection systems
The installation of fall protection systems offers numerous advantages: they protect human life and increase work productivity by creating safe working conditions. In addition, flexible systems enable versatile use on different construction sites, which further increases efficiency.
Maintenance and inspection of security systems
Regular maintenance and inspection of the safety systems is crucial to ensure their long-term functionality and effectiveness. This ensures that a continuously high safety standard is maintained, which is essential for all work at height.
