Its compatibility with HERMEQ sliders and barriers provides a complete, anti-climb, tool-free edge protection system that’s trusted across construction, maintenance and refurbishment works.

The edge protection post is widely used on high-rise residential and commercial builds, infrastructure projects and modular installations. Its strength lies in how quickly it can be deployed across changing perimeter needs, particularly where open edges pose fall hazards or compliance challenges.

Typical uses include:

  • Multi-storey construction perimeters where temporary safety systems are mandatory
  • Roof platforms and slab edges during glazing, steel fixing or services installation
  • Maintenance or inspection zones needing fast, non-invasive protective barriers
  • Lift shafts and void surrounds on major commercial builds
  • Perimeter protection during scaffold-free access work
Subcontractors across roofing, M&E, civil engineering, and external cladding often choose this system for its rapid deployment. The post locks into HERMEQ base plates without tools and can be repositioned easily across projects. It is designed with repeated use in mind, holding its integrity through harsh site conditions and multiple installation cycles. When used with HERMEQ’s edge protection barriers and sliders, the system forms a complete fall prevention setup that complies with all necessary safety expectations. High visibility and anti-climb attributes ensure it meets both regulatory and site practicalities. With domestic manufacturing, lead times are minimised and quality is assured — keeping projects moving safely and efficiently.
