Standard Installation Post For Edge Protector
Product Description
Standard Installation Post for Edge Protector
Working at height is an essential part of many construction projects, making effective edge protection a key consideration for site safety. A reliable edge protection system helps safeguard operatives working at elevated levels while also protecting those below from falling tools, materials, and debris.
The Standard Installation Post is a vital component of an edge protection system, providing the strength and stability needed to securely support edge protection panels around elevated work areas.
Strong and Secure Installation
Manufactured from galvanised steel, the Standard Installation Post measures 1085mm in height and features a 40mm x 40mm box section for excellent strength and durability.
The post is fitted with a bolt-down base plate, allowing it to be securely fixed to a suitable surface before the edge protection panels are installed. Once assembled, the posts and panels create a robust safety barrier around the perimeter of the work area, helping to reduce the risk of falls and improve overall site safety.
Easy-Lock Panel Connection
The Standard Installation Post incorporates an easy-lock system that enables edge protection panels to be fitted quickly and securely.
The locking mechanism has two simple positions:
- Open: allowing the locking mechanism to pass through the mesh panel.
- Locked: securing the panel firmly in place to prevent movement during use.
Once locked, the panel remains securely fixed until the mechanism is intentionally released.
The base plate is welded crosswise to the post for added strength and stability, while the base plate features 15mm x 20mm fixing slots to accommodate anchor bolts (sold separately).
Durable and Easy to Install
Both the installation posts and edge protection panels are lightweight, making them easy to transport, position, and install on site. The system has been designed for straightforward installation without the need for specialist tools or advanced training, helping to reduce installation time on busy construction projects.
Corrosion-Resistant Finish
Each Standard Installation Post is supplied with a Polyester Powder Coated (PPC) finish in RAL 5015 as standard.
Combined with the galvanised steel construction, the powder coating provides excellent protection against corrosion, weathering, and everyday site wear, while giving the completed edge protection system a clean, professional appearance.
