The SafeEdge Aluminium Edge Protection Post is the lightest edge protection system on the market – engineered for fast, compliant guardrail installation on commercial building projects. Made from high-tensile T6 aluminium, each post ships with pre-set graspers so standard scaffold tube guardrails go up already spaced to AS/NZS 4994.1:2009 – no measuring, no couplers, no guesswork.
SafeEdge fixes to steel, timber, or concrete substrates using bolts, screws, or anchors, with two connection point angles to suit different structural conditions. On aluminium tube guardrail, posts can be spaced up to 4m apart; on steel scaffold tube, up to 2.5m – giving contractors flexibility to optimise post counts against budget and site conditions.
| Substrate | Type of Fixture | Minimum Requirement |
|---|---|---|
| Steel | Bolt & Nut | 4/ M10 Coach or Machine Bolts (grade 4.6 or stronger) in the specified pattern. Steel purlin minimum requirements are 1.5mm gauge 200mm wide |
| Steel | Screw | 4/ 24 gauge Steel Tek screws with minimum 18mm diameter washer in the specified pattern. Must be a minimum 200mm x 1.2mm wall thickness steel member |
| Timber | Screw | 4/ 24 gauge x 50mm Timber Tek screws in the specified pattern. Timber purlin/floor joist minimum requirements are 240mm x 45mm SG8 Structural grade |
| Concrete | Anchor | Either 4/ M8 x 65mm or 4/ M10 x 60mm HILTI HUS4 Concrete Screw Anchors in the specified pattern. Concrete to have at least 100 mm thickness and 20 MPa Concrete Strength. 50mm Minimum Edge distance is required |
