At Australian Height Safety Services, we use a range of aluminium walkway platforms. These walkways are designed to be lightweight, robust, and weather-resistant, ideal for rooftops across Australia. These walkways are typically cheaper than steel options and offer greater longevity than fibre options.

We also offer the Kattsafe On-Trak walkway system made from premium-grade polyester resin and composite fibre. Designed to be maintenance-free, this walkway system offers a durable option for demanding rooftop environments.

Australian Made Products in Detail

Kattsafe is an Australian-owned and operated company that produces high-quality fall protection and height safety equipment. The following are product details and specifications for Kattsafe roof walkway systems.

Pace600

Overview

Mill finished, expanded aluminium grating
600mm wide walkway
4.5kg/linear metre
Can be installed on slopes and levelled

Description

The Pace600 aluminium roof walkway system is a lightweight, non-corrosive roof access solution. The lightweight panels allow safe, designated access to serviceable roof-mounted equipment. The material does not require maintenance, has a non-slip surface and is quick and simple to install.

The panels are fixed to spacer battens so that the walkway stands clear of the roof deck, preventing any possible damage that comes from walking directly on the roofdeck. The fastening also prevents any galvanic reaction between dissimilar metals.

The panels are 6000mm long x 600mm wide x 13mm high and weigh 4.5kg/linear metre (6.4kg/square metre). The Pace600 roof walkway system can also be combined with Sentry guardrails for added safety around ledges and fall risk areas.

On-Trak

Overview

Polyester resin and fibre
605mm wide walkway
4.5kg/linear metre

Description

The On-Trak fibre roof walkway system is another option for safe and compliant roof access. The material is premium-grade polyester resin incorporating a composite fibre-reinforced inlay, offering a multi-directional, non-slip surface that is fire-retardant and UV-inhibited.

The maintenance-free material is non-corrosive, non-metallic, and non-conductive, ensuring no galvanic reaction between the walkway system and the roof deck. Installation can be completed with the rivet fix option with no need for support battens, reducing penetrations by up to 50%. It can also be installed with the clip fix option, which utilises TrakTite’s unique non-penetrating mounting clips.

On-Trak is available in grey for minimal visual impact or safety yellow for high visibility. On-Trak roof walkway panels measure 3660mm long x 605mm wide x 15mm high and weigh 4.5kg/linear metre (7.5kg/square metre).

Sentry Guardrails

Overview

Extruded structural aluminium (6106/T6)
1000mm to 1100mm high
Approximately 2kg/m

Description

Sentry guardrails offer an effective solution for height safety and fall prevention, made from lightweight, high-strength aluminium. Sentry guardrails utilise modular fittings and fixtures that are fully adaptable and can be applied to any workplace, including easy retrofitting to existing stairways, platforms, metal roof deck, or concrete and steel structures.

The system is prefabricated for easy installation, so there is no need for on-site welding. The appearance of the railing is neat and can be powder-coated to match the surroundings. Sentry guardrails allow for safe access to rooftop equipment, guttering, fire escapes, and other fall-risk areas.

The Sentry system comprises post assemblies, kneerails and handrails made of extruded high-grade structural (6106/T6) aluminium and universal elbow joints and end caps made from die-cast aluminium. The system measures 1000mm to 1100mm above the floor surface (kneerail 450mm below handrail) with a maximum post spacing of 2000mm; the whole system weighs approximately 2kg/m.

Benefits of Roof Safety Walkway Systems

Fewer Roof Penetrations

The right roof walkway will reduce the number of required fixings and roof penetrations, and cover the correct roof span and length.

Highly Compatible

Walkways can be used along with other height safety equipment, including guardrails, step ladders, anchor points, and more.

Safer, Compliant Traversal

Roof walkway systems create a designated path across the roof, reducing slip and trip hazards when at heights.

Low Maintenance

Aluminium and composite walkway systems are designed to withstand harsh rooftop environments while requiring minimal maintenance.

Project Example

This simple aluminium walkway effectively eliminates trip and slip hazards to provide easy, safe access to roof-mounted equipment.

The walkway also protects the roofing material from damage that can occur when personnel walk directly on the roof sheet.
