ROOFTOP WALKWAYS & SLIP PROTECTION

Plan safer routes across the roof.

Compare roof walkway matting and crossover platforms. Start with the roof surface, the walking route and obstacles between access points and equipment.

THE SITUATION

Map the route from access point to equipment.

Rooftop access can involve slippery surfaces, membrane wear and obstacles along the service route. Review walkway materials and crossover options alongside the roof manufacturer’s requirements and any exposed edges or openings.

FIND THE RIGHT APPROACH

Compare walking surfaces and obstacle crossings.

Matting and crossover platforms address different parts of the route. Review the roof surface, obstacles and nearby fall hazards together.

CrossGrip Roof Matting

Roof walkway matting

BEST FOR

Designated walking routes on compatible PVC and TPO roof systems.

CrossGrip adds a slip-resistant walking surface and helps protect the membrane. Review drainage, roof compatibility and installation requirements; it is not an edge-protection system.

Crossover Ladders

Crossovers over rooftop obstacles

BEST FOR

Routes interrupted by pipes, ducts or equipment that need a defined crossing.

Review obstacle dimensions, landing clearances and supporting structure. Specify a suitable crossover layout; it does not replace protection at roof edges or openings.

PLAN YOUR PROJECT

What do we need for a recommendation?

Send a roof layout, photos of the walking route and the details below. We’ll help review the appropriate approach.

  • Roof membrane type, manufacturer, condition and roof slope.
  • Route length, walkway width, access points and equipment service areas.
  • Moisture, drainage, surface contamination and cleaning requirements.
  • Obstacle heights and widths, landing space and supporting structure.
  • Nearby roof edges and openings, site photos and project timeline.
Discuss your project

Walkway matting is not a fall-protection barrier. Confirm roof compatibility and installation requirements, and review edge and opening protection separately.
