Designed for Elevated Guardrail Systems
Standard OSHA regulations mandate that guardrail top rails be 42 inches high, with a permissible variance of ±3 inches. However, when work conditions involve the use of stilts or elevated platforms, OSHA standard 1926.502(b)(1) requires that the guardrail height be increased to ensure continuous protection.
The TGB addresses this need by allowing guardrail heights to extend beyond the standard 45 inches, accommodating elevations up to 65 inches. This adaptability ensures that workers at greater heights remain safeguarded against fall hazards.
