Temporary edge protection for excavations
Excavations and trenches are common activities in the construction industry, and workers face a number of potential hazards during operations. Guardit Safety offers a dedicated fall protection system that can be installed along edges to effectively prevent workers from falling.
Fall protection for excavations: systems for sheet piling and trench shoring
In the construction sector, fall protection for excavations is a fundamental element in ensuring operator safety and compliance with current regulations. Deep excavations, sheet pile wells and temporary shoring systems present high risks of falls from height, especially during work along the perimeter.
Guardit Safety designs and supplies fall protection solutions specifically for excavations, designed to integrate perfectly with metal sheet piles and construction site shoring, ensuring quick installation, maximum stability and resistance in harsh operating conditions.
Edge protection for sheet piles
Edge protection for sheet piles
The Guardit Sheet Pile Clamp is designed for the secure fastening of temporary edge protection on sheet pile wells and structures made with metal sheet piles.
Thanks to its high-strength clamping mechanism:
It can be installed quickly without structural modifications to the sheet piles.
It guarantees stable anchoring.
It allows the installation of fall protection guardrails along the entire perimeter of the excavation.
It's ideal for deep excavations, infrastructure works and large construction sites.
The clamp ensures continuous protection against the risk of falling from height, reducing assembly times and improving operational efficiency on site.
System components:
- Guardit barrier 2.6m
- Timber post 1.2m
- Sheet pile clamp
Edge protection for trench boxes
The Guardit Trench box Clamp is designed for direct fixing to reinforcement and armouring systems for excavations, offering a practical and high-performance fall protection solution.
Main features:
Compatibility with the main metal armouring systems (up to 150 mm)
Secure clamping without welding or drilling
Robust structure in high-strength steel
Quick installation to reduce construction site downtime
This system allows temporary fall protection railings to be installed even in the presence of reinforced excavations, ensuring perimeter protection in compliance with safety regulations for temporary and mobile construction sites.
System components:
- Guardit barrier 2.6m
- Timber post 1.2m
- Trench box clamp
Construction stairs for safe access to excavations
When working at depth, an effective fall protection system must be accompanied by safe construction stairs certified to EN 12811, which are essential for ensuring safe access to and exit from excavations.
Guardit Safety construction site stairs are designed for use in deep excavations, sheet pile wells and areas with metal shielding, offering stability and strength even in harsh conditions.
Main features:
High-strength steel structure
Non-slip steps for greater safety
Possibility of integration with edge protection barriers
Quick installation and adaptability to different excavation depths
The use of suitable stairways reduces the risk of falling during access phases, improving operational safety and compliance with regulations on temporary and mobile construction sites.
Our solutions are ideal for companies engaged in infrastructure works, technological networks, deep foundations, and large urban excavations.
Trench bridges for safe crossing of excavations
The trench bridges are essential to ensure safe crossing of excavations, avoiding risk situations during daily operations.
Guardit Safety offers sturdy and modular metal walkways, designed to be integrated with edge protection systems, clamps for sheet piles, and clamps for shoring.
Advantages of Guardit trench bridges:
High-grip non-slip surface
Provision for lateral protection railings
High load capacity
Structure resistant to wear and weather conditions
The trench bridges allow for the continuity of operations on site, ensuring safe paths over excavations, trenches, and sheeted wells.
