The Universal BrickGuard is more than just protection, it’s a benchmark for safety, innovation, and performance on every project.
The UK’s unpredictable weather and strong wind conditions highlighted a weakness in traditional BrickGuards, too often they cracked, broke, or became damaged on site, leading to unnecessary replacements and safety concerns. At JMAC, we knew there had to be a better way. That’s why we engineered the Universal BrickGuard to withstand the toughest conditions, wind tunnel tested to over 100mph. Built stronger and designed to last longer, it reduces replacement costs and delivers consistent performance project after project. It’s not just a safer solution, it’s a smarter investment.
We knew the scaffolding industry needed a better product, so we created it.
We know every site is different, and so is every business. That’s why the JMAC Universal BrickGuard is available in a range of colour options, giving you the flexibility to align safety with your brand identity or personal preference.
Whether you want your BrickGuards to stand out in bold company colours or blend seamlessly into the site environment, we make it possible. Custom branding not only reinforces professionalism on site but also makes your equipment instantly recognisable, reducing loss and strengthening your reputation for safety.
With JMAC, you don’t just get industry-leading protection—you get a product that works hard for your brand too.

Experience the unparalleled versatility and performance of our Universal Brickguard, designed to seamlessly integrate with all scaffolding systems, including:
- Traditional Tubes & Fittings (UK/Circular 48mm)
- Ring Type Systems (Layher, Plettac, Peri)
- Haki Guardrails
- Ledgers & Frames
- Advanced Guardrail Frames popular with Peri & Plettac
Setting itself apart, our Universal Brickguard stands as the exclusive solution capable of bypassing the rosette on the ring system scaffold. What's more, it perfectly accommodates obstacles encountered during installation on HAKI Scaffolding, providing unmatched versatility and reliability.
With an increased length, our Brickguards effortlessly accommodates all system scaffolding toe boards, ensuring a secure and seamless fit every time.
Experience unmatched stability and security with the unique handle design of our Brickguards, ensuring a robust and durable connection to the handrail. Compatible with handrails ranging from 30mm (Haki, Plettac, advanced guardrail) to 48mm (conventional tubular guardrail), and even Peri 60mm rectangular ledgers.
Our Brickguard product offers unparalleled resilience, delivering exceptional stability in challenging conditions and outstanding performance in strong winds. This superior performance is achieved through the innovative handle design and the increased length of the two toe board connectors, facilitating a secure fit with enhanced overlapping capability. This includes compatibility with System Scaffold at 150mm and Timber Scaffold at 225mm.
Simplify your transportation and logistics process with our ingenious stacking feature. We have the capacity to stack up to 150 Brickguards high on a 1m x 1m pallet space while ensuring a safe load. This impressive capability offers a substantial 50% improvement over competitor products, resulting in notable savings on logistic costs and load area.
Achieve a 20% reduction in material costs thanks to our Brickguard's unique ability to bypass the rosette on scaffolding standards when used with ring system modular scaffolding products.
In contrast, other scaffold guards on the market lack this capability, typically requiring three units per bay.
For instance, when utilised over a 100m run of independent scaffolding with 2.5m bays using ring system scaffold, consider the following requirements:
- 100 Universal Brickguards required (1 per linear meter)
- 120 competitor Brickguards required (3 per bay)
For added flexibility, our Brickguard is interlockable, allowing for the creation of 500mm overhanging sections to complement system scaffolding bays on tube and fitting scaffold configurations.
Personalise your Brickguard with bespoke branding options, proudly displaying your company logos and branding for a professional touch.
Rest assured, our product has been rigorously tested to meet BSEN12811 - 1 standards on all major scaffolding systems, delivering unrivaled performance and peace of mind.
Physical Wind Tunnel Testing has been carried out on 225mm high Toeboard , and 150mm high modular system toeboards, the Universal brickguard was not detached from the handrail at wind speeds of up to 100mph.

Brickguards play a crucial role in ensuring safety across various industries, including Industrial, Infrastructure, Marine, Oil and Gas, and Construction markets.
While specific regulations may vary by country or region, the need for fall protection and prevention of dropped objects is a universal concern in these sectors. Many companies and regulatory bodies worldwide recognise the importance of implementing measures to mitigate the risk of accidents and injuries on construction sites and industrial facilities.
As a result, the use of Brickguards or similar safety devices is often mandated or strongly recommended to comply with safety standards and regulations, both in the UK and internationally.
