Roof Safety & Access Systems
Design, supply, and install compliant roof safety and access solutions, ensuring safe maintenance access for trades and building staff without compromising roof performance or aesthetics.

Safe access to roof areas is not optional — it’s a compliance requirement under Australian WHS legislation and AS/NZS 1891 & 1657 standards. Whether for maintenance of HVAC systems, solar panels, gutters, or general inspections, a well-designed roof safety system eliminates the risk of falls while preserving the watertight integrity of the roof.

At Atomic Projects, we design permanent safety and access solutions that balance strict compliance with practical, low-maintenance operation.

Permanent Roof Safety Systems

We offer full safety system design and installation, including:

  1. Roof Anchor Points
    • Fixed or removable stainless steel anchors rated to 15kN.
    • Suitable for rope access, fall arrest, or restraint systems.
  2. Static Lines & Cable Systems
    • Continuous fall protection for movement along roof edges.
    • Stainless steel cabling with energy-absorbing tensioners.
  3. Guardrails & Perimeter Barriers
    • Non-penetrating, weighted base systems for membrane roofs.
    • Powder-coated finishes to match building façade aesthetics.
  4. Walkways & Platforms
    • Anti-slip aluminium or fibreglass walkways to protect both workers and roofing materials.
    • Raised platforms for safe clearance over fragile surfaces.

Roof Access Solutions

  • Fixed Ladders: Custom-fabricated to suit building height and access requirements, with cage or fall-arrest systems as required.
  • Roof Hatches: Insulated hatches for discreet, secure internal access.
  • Stair Systems: Engineered for frequent access and heavy equipment loads.

Design & Compliance Process

  1. Risk Assessment & Audit
    • Conduct a site-specific safety audit to identify all potential fall hazards.
    • Map all routine maintenance zones and access paths.
  2. System Design
    • Engineer solutions in line with AS/NZS 1891 (Fall Arrest Systems) and AS/NZS 1657 (Access Equipment).
    • Integrate into existing roof structure without compromising waterproofing.
  3. Installation & Certification
    • Install using corrosion-resistant fixings and weatherproof detailing.
    • Provide full compliance certification and system user manuals.
  4. Ongoing Inspection & Recertification
    • Annual inspections to maintain compliance and extend system life.

Waterproofing Integration

Every fixing point is detailed as if it were a critical waterproofing penetration — incorporating mechanical flashings, sealants, and overlap sequencing. We also ensure that walkways and guardrails do not create ponding points or concentrated loads that could damage the roof.

Why Choose Atomic Projects

  • Zero-Leak Guarantee on all penetrations.
  • Engineer-Certified Designs to meet legal and WHS obligations.
  • Durable, Low-Maintenance Materials for 20+ year service life.
  • Aesthetic Consideration — solutions blend with roof profile and building design.

By investing in a compliant, well-integrated roof safety and access system, you’re not just meeting WHS obligations — you’re protecting people, preserving your asset, and ensuring maintenance work is carried out efficiently and without costly incidents.
