HatchProtector™

Features

OSHA considers rooftop hatchways as holes that must be guarded to prevent people from falling into the hatch. Garlock’s HatchProtector is a fully OSHA compliant hatch guarding solution that is easy to set up and provides complete fall protection.

It uses a simple compression fit design that eliminates holes from being drilled into the roof so there is no possibility of introducing water leaks in the roof or hatch and maintains the roof and hatch warranty.

Every HatchProtector is equipped with a color matching, spring loaded self-closing EasyFit™ gate. This OSHA approved gate automatically closes after the person has passed through it preventing someone from falling though this guard rail opening.
