Will the Universal Brickguard fit on my walkway handrail?

While our Brickguard can technically fit on most walkway handrails, it may not always be suitable for its intended purpose depending on the guardrail height. However, we offer bespoke solutions tailored to your specific requirements, subject to volume. Feel free to reach out to discuss your customisation needs.

Are Brickguards a legal requirement both in the UK & Internationally?

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.
