Bumplines & Warning Line Systems

roofline warning line

Enhance rooftop safety with our RoofLine warning line and bumpline systems, designed to prevent and restrict access to nearby hazards. The RoofLine solution is ideal for creating a safety perimeter surrounding working areas that pose as a fall hazard. The system is primarily used to warn of a hazard ahead, for example, limiting walking near skylights or dangerous equipment. This self-ballasted warning line system can also be integrated with our array of guardrail solutions, providing a comprehensive safety solution. Our bumpline and roof safety line systems ensure reliable hazard alerts for personnel on the roof, ultimately enhancing your roof safety program.

The RoofLine Series self-ballasted warning line system is designed to alert roof personnel to potential hazards by creating a visible barrier around designated work areas. Ideal for establishing a safety perimeter around roof sections, skylights, or equipment, and set back from the hazard by more than 6 feet. These warning line systems integrate seamlessly with other Skyline Group guardrail solutions, enhancing overall rooftop safety. It is important to note that warning line systems do not replace the need for a non-penetrating or fixed safety rail system, as they do not act as a compliant safety barrier preventing someone from falling.

Constructed from high-visibility, weather-resistant materials, the RoofLine Series is designed for reliable performance in various conditions. The modular nature of this roof warning line system allows for quick assembly and easy reconfiguration as needed. Its self-ballasted design ensures stability without roof penetration, preserving roof integrity and reducing installation time. Each unit meets national and provincial safety standards, ensuring compliance with height safety and fall protection regulations.

Skyline Group’s warning line systems are perfect for commercial, industrial, and institutional applications. Whether you need a temporary safety solution during construction projects or a permanent fixture to delineate safe working zones, our RoofLine Series offers the flexibility and reliability required to enhance workplace safety and prevent accidents. Using bumpline and warning line systems can at times reduce the need for more costly guardrails, making them particularly beneficial for short-term work or high-traffic areas.

Warning line and bumpline systems are perfect for applications looking to restrict access or warn workers of an upcoming hazard. The intention is to stop roof workers from continuing or warn them of a hazard ahead. At which point, they may be required to have a harness before continuing, or there may be a fixed guardrail up ahead as they will be close to the roof edge.

The systems are customized to meet your requirements in length, although note that your local safety regulations sometimes govern the required spacing between flags.

FAQs

Bumplines and warning lines differ greatly from guardrails. The sole purpose of bumplines is to warn you of a hazard. They are primarily used to restrict access or warn of a hazard ahead, preventing you from accessing that area without the required safety precautions or approval from the property management team.

Bumplines can only be used as a means of warning a worker of danger ahead. If your sole purpose is to restrict access, where that access is far away from the hazard, a bumpline may be suitable. But once you require access to an area that has a nearby hazard, such as being 6 feet away from the roof edge, a guardrail is required to proactively prevent a fall. When it comes to defining the application of a bumpline, it can get challenging. It is always best to reach out to your safety partner for a proper assessment of your application. At Skyline Group, our safety professionals provide a free consultation and layout recommendation for guardrails and bumplines. Contact us to learn more.

The bumpline is a high tensile galvanized steel cable with a high visibility PVC coating that includes high visibility flags for quick and easy viewing year-round. The system is easily integrated with our guardrail system and utilizes the same weighted base plates.

Placement varies depending on your local safety regulations. Ideally, it should be at a distance that warns you of an upcoming hazard, not at a distance to protect you from the hazard. As a result, it is important that you work with your safety partner to design a safety plan and the location of where the bumpline units will be placed.

Yes, there are safety regulations and standards that impact the placement of a warning line system. For example, if your building is located in the province of Quebec, then there are also regulations around the distance between the flags on the chain of the bumpline, along with the distance as to where the system is placed.

FAQs

They comply with local safety requirements as they meet the load requirements through the use of counterweighted base plates. Skyline RoofBarrier systems are engineered to meet your safety requirements.

Penetrating the roof and membrane requires you to reseal those holes to ensure there are no water leaks. Especially with a brand new roof membrane, the last thing you want to do is create unnecessary holes. Not to mention, in some applications such as older heritage buildings, drilling into the roof may not be an option. As a result, a non-penetrating system would be the best solution. If you are worried about the weight of the base plates, they apply less pressure per square inch than an adult standing on the roof. This is because our base plates are low profile (¾” thick with a ¾” rubber mat below the baseplate) and wide, spreading the weight across a 2’ x 2’ area.

Depending on the roof material and slope, a non-penetrating guardrail system may not be the best option. For example, a high-sloped roof will not provide a stable platform for the base plates to sit on, nor will it act as a proper counterweight. That being said, the guardrail system can also clip to a standing seam roof with a pressure-fit non-penetrating clamp, minimizing the need for intrusions.

Skyline guardrails can withstand a 1.5 KN vertical force along with a 1.0 KN horizontal force. This is done through the use of base plates being installed every 10 feet and outriggers every 30 feet, in order to act as counterweights. It is always best to check with your supplier and ensure engineer stamped drawings are provided for your specific layout, as not all guardrails will meet the correct loadings of your location.

No, our non-penetrating guardrails are effective year-round, regardless of the weather or climate.
