Kee Hatch® Roof Hatch Guardrails
Safe access and exit around an open roof hatchKee Hatch® is a perimeter guardrail system with a self-closing safety gate. It secures the entire perimeter of a roof hatch and protects workers when accessing and leaving the roof.
What is the Kee Hatch® system?
Kee Hatch® is a guardrail system designed specifically to secure the perimeter of a roof hatch. An open roof hatch presents a serious fall hazard for people working or moving nearby, so the system encloses the entire opening, while maintaining a safe and controlled access point.
A key component of the system is the self-closing safety gate, which automatically returns to the closed position behind the user, minimising the risk of leaving access to an unprotected opening exposed. This allows workers to safely access the roof and return to the hatch while the perimeter remains protected throughout the work.
Like other Kee Safety guardrail systems, Kee Hatch® is built from modular, weld-free components that can be adapted to the size and shape of a specific roof hatch without the need for on-site welding.
Why choose Kee Hatch®?
Kee Hatch® is a practical solution for securing roof access points. The system eliminates the risk of falling through an open hatch, providing continuous protection around roof openings.
Protection around the entire hatch perimeter
The guardrails enclose the entire opening, protecting people near the hatch regardless of whether it is open or closed.
Modular construction
The system can be adapted to the dimensions and shape of a specific roof hatch using tubes cut to size and Kee Klamp connecting fittings.
Self-closing safety gate
The gate automatically returns to the closed position, eliminating the risk of leaving access to an unprotected area open.
Corrosion resistance
The metal components of the system are galvanised, allowing them to be used in demanding outdoor conditions for many years.
Compliance with standards and regulations
The Kee Hatch® system is designed in accordance with the requirements of standards governing roof access points and safe working at height.
Frequently asked questions
Does Kee Hatch® protect the roof hatch when it is closed as well?
Yes. The guardrails permanently enclose the entire perimeter of the hatch, regardless of whether the hatch cover is open or closed, providing continuous protection for people moving around the access point.
What types of roof hatches is Kee Hatch® suitable for?
Thanks to its modular construction, the system can be adapted to different sizes and shapes of roof hatches — from standard access hatches to larger access openings found in industrial buildings.
How does Kee Hatch® differ from a standard roof guardrail?
Kee Hatch® combines a perimeter guardrail with a self-closing safety gate, providing controlled access to and from the roof while keeping the opening permanently protected — something a standard edge guardrail does not provide.
Does installation require drilling into the roof?
The installation method depends on the type of roof and the hatch configuration. Our technical team will select the most suitable fixing solution for your building, taking into account, where possible, solutions that do not require intervention in the roof covering.
