Falling through skylights or strip lights is a topical danger situation in business and public sectors. In most cases, the apparently safe covering of the skylight is not secure against either stepping or falling through. This applies to both existing and newly planned skylights and strip lights, which are being installed increasingly. With the permanent and temporary solutions from INNOTECH® you ensure the safety of all persons who find themselves adjacent to skylights and who, for example, perform servicing and maintenance tasks.

Lighting elements are planned on roof surfaces so that light and fresh air can enter the spaces underneath, and so that smoke can escape in an emergency. Inattention or tripping can cause someone to break through the covering of a skylight and, if there is no protection, to fall a long distance. Serious injuries generally result.
This dangerous situation can arise for any person who finds himself on a roof. Skylights are found mostly on industrial warehouses, shopping centres, residential buildings, etc., for example where maintenance tasks have to be performed by specialists.
But lighting elements with coverings are also found at lower levels, such as underground car parks. The illusion of safety created by the covering of the skylight is a subject of concern in this application area. Considering the skylight as a safe seating surface, or stepping or jumping on it through negligent behaviour can result in accidents, because skylights have usually not been designed for this.
As well as unintended dangerous behaviour, brought about by the illusion of safety, tripping and slipping represent a permanent source of danger for skylights – for everybody, all of the time.
Falling through an open skylight represents a further danger situation. Here the illusion of safety is of lesser significance, compared with unintended tripping or slipping. In this case too, an INNOTECH® skylight protection system protects against a fall-through having severe consequences.
It is therefore necessary to ensure that skylights are protected, and this is achieved through protection in the light well (collective protection). The following solutions from INNOTECH® for skylights and strip lights can be either temporary or permanent fall protection systems, depending on requirements.
