new product showcase Kee Klamp introduces new time saving components To speed up installation and reduce labour costs, Kee Klamp Ltd has developed a new rail fitting as an integral, standard component of its market leading KeeGuard® roof edge protection system. The new fitting allows the KeeGuard® system’s horizontal guardrail to be placed in the saddle of the open fitting, rather than through it before being secured with a grub screw in the normal fashion. This makes system assembly up to twice as fast as conventional roof edge protection systems and reduces on-site installation complexity and cost. With this new fitting, the KeeGuard® system remains compliant with EN 14122 for permanent barriers and provides “collective” rather than “personal” protection. The KeeGuard® system comprises just three principal pre-fabricated components - a main upright, a main counterbalance and a free end assembly, where no wall fixing is available. All assemblies <strong>are</strong> designed for use with 42.4 and 48.3 o/d diameter tubing and standard fittings from the Kee Klamp® range to provide a complete, easy to assemble solution in roof edge guardrailing, walkway demarcation, stairwell, open lift shaft and other fall prevention applications. The system also allows for integral kickboard fixing saving even greater time and cost on site. Options to the standard upright configuration <strong>are</strong> also available providing a more sympathetic and unobtrusive appearance on buildings, where required, than is possible using some other systems. As well as the popular KeeGuard® system, Kee Klamp Ltd also provides a full range of fittings for tubular structure construction, and tubular solutions for interior or exterior balustrading applications with its Keenect(r) system and Keeline systems. Kee Klamp Ltd is certified to BS EN ISO 9001 and is recognised as an Investor In People.
