Description
The FallGuard® Model A-SM1 is a dome skylight safety screen designed to help protect workers from falls through acrylic dome skylights and roof openings. Built specifically for rooftop fall protection applications, this skylight guard provides a cost-effective safety solution for commercial, industrial, and institutional facilities that need to reduce fall hazards around existing dome skylights.
Falls through skylights remain a serious risk on rooftops, especially when workers are performing maintenance, inspections, HVAC service, repairs, solar installation, or general roof access. The FallGuard® A-SM1 helps address OSHA skylight fall protection requirements by creating a protective screen barrier over dome skylights, helping prevent accidental falls through fragile or non-rated skylight materials.
Key Benefits
- Designed for fall protection around acrylic dome skylights
- Helps support OSHA rooftop safety and skylight guarding requirements
- Cost-effective alternative to replacing existing skylights
- Easy to install on compatible dome skylight applications
- Provides passive fall protection with no worker tie-off required
- Helps protect maintenance crews, roofers, contractors, and facility personnel
- Suitable for commercial rooftops, warehouses, manufacturing facilities, schools, hospitals, and industrial buildings
Common Applications
FallGuard® dome skylight screens are ideal for facilities with rooftop access where workers may be exposed to fall hazards near skylights, roof openings, or non-structural acrylic domes. These skylight safety screens can be used as part of a broader rooftop fall protection plan for buildings across the United States, including warehouses, distribution centers, office buildings, schools, municipalities, retail facilities, and manufacturing plants.
Improve Rooftop Safety with Passive Skylight Fall Protection
The FallGuard® Model A-SM1 provides a practical way to improve rooftop safety without relying on active fall arrest equipment. By guarding exposed dome skylights, facility owners and safety managers can help reduce fall-through hazards, improve OSHA compliance efforts, and protect workers during routine roof access.
