Direct Fix Edge Protection

Make future roof access faster, safer and easier

For commercial buildings that need regular roof access, EdgeGuard can install permanent direct fix edge protection clips that stay in place on the roof.

These clips create a ready-to-use fixing point, so edge protection can be fitted much faster whenever it is needed.

Instead of starting from scratch every time your roof needs maintenance, servicing, inspections or repairs, the clips are already there and ready for the next job.

This is a smart option for commercial sites, petrol stations, retail buildings, warehouses, offices and property portfolios where roof access is needed frequently.

Lower Cost Repeat Edge Protection

A practical setup for repeat roof work

Commercial roof access is rarely a one-off. Air conditioning units need servicing, solar panels need checking, gutters need clearing, roofs need inspecting, and refurbishments come up over time.

Direct fix edge protection clips help make this process more straightforward. Once installed, they remain on the roof and allow temporary edge protection to be connected when work is required.

That means:

  • Faster edge protection setup next time

  • Less hassle organising roof access

  • Reduced disruption for busy commercial sites

  • A more practical option for repeat maintenance

  • Easier planning across multiple buildings or locations

Our tech

S-5! TD Brackets

EdgeGuard uses S-5! TD Brackets as part of its direct fix edge protection system for suitable metal roofs. These brackets are fixed to the roof and provide a strong connection point for temporary edge protection when roof access is needed.

Once the brackets are in place, EdgeGuard can return and clip on the edge protection for future maintenance, inspections, servicing, solar work, cleaning, or repairs. It is a practical option for commercial buildings and sites that need regular roof access, helping make future setup faster, simpler, and more cost-effective.

How it works

1

We assess the roof

We check the roof type, access needs, building layout and the kind of work that is likely to happen in future.

2

Clips are installed

The clips are fitted to suitable roof areas and remain in place for future use.

3

Edge protection connects when needed

When roof work is booked, EdgeGuard can connect the edge protection to the clips, helping speed up the setup process.

4

The clips stay ready for next time

The clips stay fixed to the roof, ready for the next maintenance, inspection or repair — so future edge protection goes up faster.

Saves time on future jobs

With clips already installed, future edge protection can be fitted more efficiently.

Reduces repeat setup costs

If your site needs regular roof access, a permanent clip system can help reduce the time and cost involved in repeated setups.

Helps keep sites running

For petrol stations, retail stores and busy commercial sites, faster setup can mean less disruption to staff, customers and contractors.
