"Step Guard," a stair opening handrail used to prevent falls from stair openings. The "Aluminum Step Guard" is a stair opening handrail that has been reduced in weight by about 60% compared to traditional steel products, weighing only 6.2 kg. We have now obtained certification from the Temporary Construction Association and are finally able to offer it to our customers. Please give it a try. You will surely be surprised by its incredible lightness! *Related products and catalogs provide more detailed information.

The conventional "step guard" was very heavy, causing significant burdens on-site. The new product, the aluminum step guard for stair openings, has switched the main material from steel to aluminum, achieving a weight reduction from 14.8 kg to 7.8 kg, approximately 47% lighter. This dramatically reduces the burden on the worksite and significantly improves work efficiency, contributing to shorter construction periods. Additionally, the arm can be opened and closed at a 90-degree angle, eliminating the previously existing triangular opening and greatly enhancing safety. More details are available in related products and catalogs. 【Features】 ■ Wedge-locked scaffolding (next-generation scaffolding) ■ Proven track record with major leasing companies ■ Hook locking mechanism improves efficiency in disassembly with one-sided operation ■ Prevents falls from stair openings ■ Certified compliant product by the Temporary Construction Industry Association
