Safeguarding Limited Spaces on Roof Edge for Gas and Oil Industry


Enerflex Ltd. is a global provider of energy infrastructure and energy transition solutions, covering gas processing, compression, power generation, refrigeration, cryogenics, water treatment, and more.

As a gas and power supplier, ensuring the safety of their personnel during HVAC and mechanical unit servicing is paramount. They needed a reliable, compliant, and durable rooftop fall protection system for all their facilities in Ontario and Alberta.

The Challenge

One primary challenge was the limited space on the roof edge. In such high-risk environments, effective collective protection solutions are crucial to prevent serious injuries or fatalities. Restricted space on roofs should not compromise safety standards.

The bases of Kee Guard for narrow spaces are located at the bottom of each guardrail and do not require an off-set counterweight. This allows the guardrail to fit into narrow or awkward spaces or walkways. Specifically useful when solar panels are present and close to the edge of the roof.

The Solution

To address the challenge of limited space on the roof edge, Kee Safety installed the Kee Guard safety railing for narrow rooftop spaces. This innovative solution was specifically designed to provide effective edge protection even in the tightest spots. Kee Guard's unique base weight system eliminates the need for off-set counterweights, allowing for maximum space-saving. It ensures efficient use of space without compromising safety, making it ideal for narrow spaces or areas where trip hazards are a concern.
