30" x 54" RL2-NB Railing System for Roof Hatch - Bilco

Unprotected roof hatch openings present a fall hazard, risking injury and increasing building owners' liability. The 30" x 54" RL2-NB Railing System for Roof Hatch - Bilco offers a non-penetrating attachment system that secures the railing to the hatch cap without drilling. Its self-closing gate and OSHA-compliant design provide consistent fall protection, reducing risks and liability.

The RL2-NB enhances safety by preventing falls from roof hatch openings and meets OSHA standards. It is made from lightweight, corrosion-resistant 6061 T6 aluminum with a powder-coated finish and features a self-closing gate and automatic latch for added security.

The system installs without drilling, using stainless steel fasteners to attach directly to the roof hatch cap flashing, preventing roof damage. Compatible with most major roof hatch brands, it's a reliable safety solution for commercial rooftops.
