PROJECT DETAILS
Our customer, a prominent installer of fall protection and access solutions, was tasked with providing a raised plant deck for the installation of prefabricated units for plants. The deck, standing at 1.8 metres high, required strict adherence to fall protection standards to ensure safety.
DID YOU KNOW?
Glasgow’s etymology which comes from Celtic words for ‘green hollow’, and its nickname ‘Dear Green Place’, reflect the large amount of parks and green space that flourish in Glasgow’s typical rainy weather!
KITE'S PART OF THE PROJECT
To address the fall protection needs, especially considering Glasgow's unpredictable weather, Kite Group supplied GRP panels and a ball standard handrail system.
Providing GRP Moulded Grating Panels to this site offers several key benefits:
-
Lightweight and Easy to Install: These panels are lighter than traditional materials, simplifying transportation and installation, thus reducing labuor costs and project timelines.
-
High Strength and Durability: Despite their lightweight nature, GRP panels are robust and can support heavy loads. They are also corrosion-resistant, making them ideal for outdoor use.
-
Improved Safety: The non-slip surface of GRP grating panels enhances safety by reducing the risk of slips and falls.
-
Low Maintenance: GRP panels do not rust or corrode, ensuring long-term performance with minimal upkeep.
Additionally, providing Ball Standard Handrail System offers several key benefits:
-
Robust and Durable: Made of steel, this handrail system is highly durable and can withstand heavy use and harsh weather conditions.
-
Simple and Aesthetic Design: The straightforward yet visually appealing design integrates seamlessly into the park's landscape.
-
Versatility: The system can be customised with various clamps and standards to suit different angles and levels, making it adaptable to diverse terrains.
-
Straightforward Installation: The modular nature of the handrail system allows for quick and easy installation, reducing project time and costs.
Kite Group is proud to have enhanced the safety and accessibility of this business. Our GRP moulded grating panels and ball standard handrail system not only provide superior protection but also reflect our commitment to creating safe environments for all visitors.
