Shoresafe Excavation Safety Equipment

Edge Protection Systems

Our edge protection systems provide a safer working environment for site personnel. Available for hire, our temporary edge protection and barrier systems are designed for use around the perimeter of an excavation, keeping workers protected from any falling debris or other materials during construction work. 

As temporary works specialists, our ultimate aim is to keep your construction site and workers safe. That's why our edge protection systems are designed to the highest safety standards in the construction industry's official code of practice. 

With the aim of eradicating risk and injury on site, our protective systems are built for truly robust protection - even against heavy force.

Edge Protection Barriers

Our Edge Protection Barriers offer the highest levels of safety for site workers.

We are the first temporary works specialist to meet and exceed BS EN 13374:2013 Class A & Class B - the Standards for Temporary Edge Protection (independently tested by Lloyds British test house).

This means that our Universal barriers keep workers safe from large pieces of debris, effectively preventing heavy objects from falling into the excavation site. What’s more, our Universal barriers can resist heavy dynamic forces large enough to stop a person who is falling, sliding or rolling down a slope of up to 30°.

 

*

Our universal system is designed to be offset so that it is clear of any Trench box lifting points, allowing the lifting chains to be safely attached without removing the edge protection systems.

Frequently hired with excavation support equipment, our  Edge Protection System is fully compatible with our range of Trench boxes and Trench Sheets and Sheet Piles.
