Description
The Standing Seam, R-Panel & Corrugated Skylight Screens are available in a range of sizes and configurations to retrofit your metal roof, from standing seam to r-panel/corrugated fiberglass roof skylights. Our skylight safety systems are designed to be tough and reliable to provide you with years of fall protection.
Standing Seam Roofs
The Skylight Screens for Standing Seam Metal Roofs are similar to regular corrugated fiberglass skylights – they are at the same level as the roof and have the same profile. They can be easily overlooked when a person is working or walking on the roof. Skylight Safety Screens are easy to install and allow for a proactive rather than reactive solution to a safety hazard.
FEATURES & BENEFITS
- Complies with OSHA regulations 29 CFR 1910.23 and 1926.501.
- For use with standing seam / trapezoidal standing seam fiberglass skylights.
- Eliminates potential for personnel to fall through skylight.
- Easily installed without use of special tools.
- Does not compromise the energy-saving benefits of skylights.
- Screen constructed of 3″ x 4″ welded wire mesh.
- Minimum transverse diameter of 0.195”.
- Screen hot dipped galvanized after welding.
- PVC bumper extrusion installed around the perimeter of the screen.
- Overall size of screen 3′-9″ x 11′-4″.
- 20 gauge, 11′-4″ galvanized steel channel with 6 pre-punched holes provided.
R-Panel / Corrugated Deck Metal Roofs
The Skylight Screens for R-Panel/Corrugated Metal Roofs prevent falls through corrugated fiberglass skylights. They are easy to install and prove to be cost effective when compared to the potential time and money expended as the result of a fall-related accident. Often times, these skylight screens are difficult to detect by people on the roof because they are at the same level and have the same profile as the corrugated metal roof panels.

Federal OSHA and Cal OSHA are specific on performance standards for railings, screens and covers for skylights. Paramount for all of them is that if a person falls onto the screen or cover they must not be allowed to break the lens of the skylight. In other words the screen or cover must not only support the weight of the person falling, it must also meet load requirements prescribed by OSHA. If using railings, the railing must meet load requirements of their own. Here are the pertinent standards from the https://www.osha.gov/ website by which skylight guarding is mandated by law and that all railings, covers and screens must comply.
Federal OSHA: General Industry (29 CFR 1910.29) and Construction (29 CFR 1926.501 & 1926.502)
Cal-OSHA: Title 8, Section 3212 and Title 8, Section 1632
ANSI: A1264.1 and Z359.1
29 CFR §1910.23
Guarding Floor and Wall Openings and Holes.
(a)(4) Every skylight floor opening and hole shall be guarded by a standard skylight screen or a fixed standard railing on all exposed sides.
(e)(8) Skylight screens shall be of such construction and mounting that they are capable of withstanding a load of 200 pounds applied perpendicular at any one area of the screen. They shall also be of such construction and mounting that under ordinary loads or impact, they will not deflect downward sufficiently to break the glass below them. The construction shall be of grillwork with openings not more than 4 inches long or slab work with openings not more than 2 inches wide with length unrestricted.
29 CFR §1926.501
Duty to have fall protection.
(a) General. (1) This section sets forth requirements for employers to provide fall protection systems. All fall protection required by this section shall conform to the criteria set forth in 1926.502 of this subpart. (a)(2) The employer shall determine if the walking/working surfaces on which its employees are to work have the strength and structural integrity to support employees safely. Employees shall be allowed to work on those surfaces only when the surfaces have the requisite strength and structural integrity.
(b)(4) Holes. (i) Each employee on walking/working surfaces shall be protected from falling through holes (including skylights) more than 6 feet (1.8m) above lower levels, by personal fall arrest systems, covers, or guardrail systems erected around such holes. (ii) Each employee on a walking/working surface shall be protected from tripping in or stepping into or through holes (including skylights) by covers. (iii) Each employee on a walking/working surface shall be protected from objects falling through holes (including skylights) by covers.
