Three Cheers for Roof Safety

Safesite Ltd News and PR from Safesite Ltd - Published 28 August 2012 Safesite's System 2000 guardrail has been installed at the iconic Harveys in Lewes to allow safe access to the brewery's chiller roof for maintenance of plant and equipment.
Safesite has installed its System 2000 roof edge protection system at Harveys in Lewes to allow safe access to the brewery's chiller roof for maintenance of plant and equipment.

Local icon Harveys was founded in 1780 and is the oldest independent brewery in Sussex and, as with most buildings, houses its plant and equipment on the breweryÂ’s roofs, in particular the chiller roof.

Safesite carried out a survey and assessment of the chiller roof in order to determine the best way of providing safe access for regular maintenance purposes.

System 2000 provided the best solution as it was able to cope with the specific design requirements following the installation of the large chiller unit onto two RSJs on the roof. The systemÂ’s flexibility meant that it could be designed around the RSJs in order to provide continual edge protection throughout the roof area.

System 2000 is installed with rubber matting bonded to the underside of components which come into contact with the room membrane. Pedestrian tiles have also been placed where the base feet and counterweights are in contact with the roof membrane for added protection in warm weather.

The installation of Safesite's System 2000 ensures that a safe working environment is provided for those accessing the roof and that Harveys is compliant with regulations and provides a physical form of protection when regular roof access is required.
