The universally applicable and colour-customisable collective protection from INNOTECH
BARRIER-VARIO-SYSTEM
The BARRIER-VARIO-SYSTEM is a version of the BARRIER guardrail system which is held by superimposed load and is simple to install.
SHOW SYSTEMBARRIER-ATTIKA-SYSTEM
The BARRIER-ATTIKA SYSTEM is a version of the BARRIER guardrail system which is permanently installed on various substructures (e.g. parapet, steel constructions, etc.).
SHOW SYSTEMBARRIER-FLEECE-SYSTEM
In recent years green roofs have become increasingly popular. With the BARRIER- FLEECE-SYSTEM, INNOTECH ensures optimum edge protection on flat roofs.
SHOW SYSTEMBARRIER-SKYLIGHT-SYSTEM
On a roof, skylights represent a source of danger which is easy to overlook. BARRIER-SKYLIGHT is a superimposed load system and is individually adjustable. For an area up to 1.9 x 1.9 m, the same system parts are used as for VARIO.
SHOW SYSTEMBARRIER-ESCAPE ROUTES-SYSTEM
The purpose of the BARRIER-FLEECE-SYSTEM is to create a specified route, in order to evacuate people safely in the event of an emergency. Depending on the construction circumstances, INNOTECH provides 2 superimposed load ESCAPE ROUTES variants.
SHOW SYSTEMBARRIER ASCENT LADDER-SYSTEM
The BARRIER ASCENT LADDER SYSTEM secures the side exit area of ascent ladders. It is connected to the structure of a customer’s existing ascent ladder, and secures the area of transfer from the ladder to the roof surface (1.5 m to left and right is required by standard).
SHOW SYSTEMNecessary cleaning and maintenance work requires access to your flat roof, as does its use for a PV system or as a green space. Unfortunately, the risk of falling is often underestimated. Protect the lives of your employees with systems from INNOTECH! We install roof guardrails for fall protection on your flat roof for all persons who move around on it.
BARRIER-VARIO
Guardrail system with weights as superimposed load
The BARRIER-VARIO guardrail system is used wherever the fall edges of a flat roof up to a maximum pitch of 10° must be protected. The guardrail held in place by superimposed concrete weights creates a barrier around the fall-risk area, and ...
BARRIER-ATTIKA
Guardrail system installed on parapet
The BARRIER ATTIKA guardrail system is suitable only for combination with an existing parapet construction. Once the system has been attached to the parapet construction, it provides optimum fall protection for all persons located ...
BARRIER FLEECE
Guardrail system with green roof as superimposed load
The BARRIER-FLEECE guardrail system is used wherever fall edges on flat roofs with a pitch (inclination) of up to 10° need to be secured. It forms a barrier to the fall edge, allowing all persons on the roof to move around safely. This system ...
BARRIER-SKYLIGHT
Guardrail system around skylights/strip lights
The BARRIER SKYLIGHT guardrail system is used wherever skylights must be protected on roofs of up to 10° inclination. Regardless of the size of the skylight, the superimposed load system provides optimum fall protection, and thereby ...

BARRIER-ASCENT-LADDER
Guardrail system for ladder exits
The BARRIER-ASCENT-LADDER guardrail system is used wherever it is necessary to secure the exit area of an ascent ladder, where a fall edge is present after exiting onto the roof surface. Depending on the substructure (parapet) ...
A standard-compliant fall protection system is mandatory for fall heights of 3 metres or more. However, even falls from lower heights can result in life-threatening injuries. We therefore recommend installing a professional fall protection system using a roof guardrail in the outdoor area of your flat roof. The experts at INNOTECH are guaranteed to find a solution that is perfectly suited to your flat roof:
We fix the roof railing either superimposed load by concrete weights on the outriggers (e.g. with BARRIER-VARIO) or by the net weight of your green roof (BARRIER-FLEECE) if you do not want it to be pierced. It is also possible to mount the roof guardrail directly on the parapet of your roof, if it has one (BARRIER-ATTIKA).
Collective protection
With a roof railing as fall protection, you protect everyone who steps onto the roof. The use of this collective protection eliminates the need to purchase personal protective equipment (PPE).
Individual solutions
Our experts will assess the situation on your roof on site and find the perfect protection system for you. They will then reliably secure the roof edges and special areas.
- The path to a safe roof begins with a personal consultation. Our experts are on hand to advise you, answer any questions you may have and provide a structured overview of suitable railing solutions for your flat roof – naturally always in accordance with the relevant standards and legal requirements. This enables us to determine the optimal system for your new building or for retrofitting your existing roof.
- Once all the relevant details have been clarified, we will prepare a tailor-made offer for you. If this meets your expectations, we will arrange a suitable date for the implementation of the project.
- Even during the project implementation, you can rest assured that the collaboration will be straightforward and goal-oriented. Trust in our technical expertise and look forward to being able to walk on your roof without danger!
Skylights and strip lights: They provide light inside buildings, but at the same time pose a great danger to people who walk on the roof. Skylights and strip lights are made of plastic and, unless they are reinforced models, are not fall-through or fall-through-proof. Although we offer LIGHT-FLEX, a fall-through protection system for skylights, we still recommend the additional use of roof guardrails to prevent falls in this specific outdoor area. This makes it impossible to enter the danger zone in the first place.
Weather: Snow and wet conditions increase the risk of slipping. It is therefore particularly important to prevent falls at the edge of the roof. A roof railing reliably eliminates the risk of falling for anyone who goes onto the roof surface. Its installation protects lives and also saves costs, as there is no need for additional PPE.
Strong winds: Extreme weather conditions pose a particular challenge for roof guardrails – and this includes strong winds. If your company is located in an area known for particularly strong gusts of wind, you must not underestimate the wind load acting on the roof railing! However, INNOTECH can help even in this situation: our experts reduce the distance between supports and increase the ballast to prevent tipping.
When is fall protection mandatory?
Fall protection is mandatory on flat roofs with a height of 3 metres or more. This is the only way to ensure that servicing, inspection or cleaning work can be carried out safely.
How high does a roof railing have to be?
There is no simple answer to this question. The height of the railing depends on the area of application, the country and the regulations applicable there.
How is the railing installed?
We often fix the railing on the booms by means of a superimposed load provided by concrete weights. However, for roofs with gravel fillings or green roofs, we also use the net weight of the gravel or plant cover for fastening, as this means that the roof does not have to be pierced. In addition, it is possible to attach the railing to the parapet of your roof. We select the exact type of installation that best suits the conditions on your roof.
Do I need personal protective equipment in addition to the railing?
No, a railing on your roof is sufficient for fall protection. The collective protective measure secures all people on the flat roof at the same time, which makes the additional use of personal protective equipment (PPE) obsolete.
Can the existing wind load affect the railing?
Yes, wind speeds must be taken into account during planning! Regions with strong winds in particular require certain steps to be taken by INNOTECH professionals to ensure that the roof railing is securely fixed in place.
