Under Fascia

Under fascia edge protection systems for new roof installation.

About under fascia edge protection

Under fascia edge protection revolutionises safety for workers at height. Unlike traditional guardrails that can obstruct the roofline, fascia under roof systems attach to the rafters or top plates to ensure compliant fall prevention is in place without obstructing roofing works.

This innovative design offers multiple benefits — enhanced worker safety, protection for existing fascia and gutters and streamlined construction workflows. With these features, EWRG’s under fascia edge protection complies with stringent safety standards for domestic and commercial construction projects.
