ABS - Escape and rescue route for flat roofs

✔ 1 m wide, compliant emergency escape routes for flat roofs based on a flexible modular system
✔ Equipped with railings on both sides – clear routing for maximum occupational safety
✔ No roof penetration necessary: secure setup without damaging the roofing membrane
✔ Weight-based installation instead of bolting – ideal for quick assembly and dismantling
✔ Protection of the substrate provided by included rubber patches

Flexible use on the flat roof

With the ABS escape and rescue route system, you can quickly and systematically set up defined emergency routes on flat roofs – perfect for construction site logistics, maintenance areas, and permanently planned escape routes. The system is 1 m wide and has railings on both sides, allowing you to create safe walkways that provide orientation and significantly reduce the risk of falls. Thanks to the weight-based installation, the roof waterproofing remains intact, which is particularly important for sensitive structures and renovation projects.

Thanks to the modular design, you can combine straight sections, transitions, and 90° corners exactly as your roof layout requires. In practice, this means: You plan your escape route in a modular fashion, adapt it to roof fixtures, and expand it at any time. This makes the emergency route the ideal supplement to personal protective equipment in team setups and a real asset in terms of occupational safety – whether in commercial construction, for PV installations, or in classic roofing supplies and plumbing/sheet metal supplies.

Who is the system made for?

Do you work in the trade and need clear, safe paths on the roof? Then this system is just right – also as a supplement to lightweight edge protection solutions like the ABS Guard OnTop Sandwich safety railing for riveting onto sandwich roofs: Use that for lightweight edge protection, and this for defined escape routes with weight-based installation for flat roofs.
