McNetiq Handrail System

When there is no collective fall protection provided in a working situation at heights, a  temporary handrail can offer a solution. A handrail with magnetic feet offers an easy way to provide safe working conditions. The system is applicable, for instance, in maritime and offshore environments. McNetiq offers magnetic feet for installing of temporary handrailing without welding, fast and flexible. This support system is equipped with our Controlock® technology. This allows the user to test the magnetic shear and pull force to confirm compliance with engineering requirements. The handrailing confirms to EN 13374 Class A
