PASCHAL has launched Secuset lateral protection system to provide occupational safety solution on construction sites

Occupational safety is a top priority for PASCHAL, due to which it has expanded its portfolio, to include the Secuset temporary lateral protection system. The central component of the system is a lateral railing post, which can be used in conjunction with a variety of connecting pieces for almost unlimited applications. 

Comprehensive safety in accordance with DIN EN 13374

When combined with mounted boards or fences, the lateral railing post guarantees the required level of occupational safety, with regards to lateral protection, and complies with the latest safety standard DIN EN 13374. In addition, all the components of the fall protection system are hot-dip galvanised and meet the highest quality standards, to ensure a very long service life.

Quick and easy installation

The lateral protection is quick and safe to assemble for immediate use. The pull-out-resistant click mechanism ensures that the railing post is automatically secured when into the support, and easy to assemble and dismantle. To set up the lateral protection, hook the lateral protection fences into the posts and fix in place with a support. The 260-cm-long close-meshed lateral protection fences weigh less than 20 kg, for effortless handling; and angle brackets of the posts have holes for nails or screws, so that wooden boards can be inserted as an alternative to lateral protection fences.

Safe work on slab edges

When combined with the fastening plate, the lateral protection system offers comprehensive fall protection on all level surfaces, such as concrete slab edges. The lateral clamping piece is used for lateral protection on slab formwork, slab front sides or balustrades. With a wide adjustment range of up to 60cms, the clamping piece can be used in various ways, and can be mounted both vertically and horizontally.

Optimised lateral protection for PASCHAL wall formwork systems

The 230 x 80 cm lateral protection fence with wooden toe board can be used at the upper formwork edge, to secure the workplace when filling and compacting concrete; it also provides the necessary fall protection. Supports are available for the NeoR, Modular/GE and LOGO series of PASCHAL formwork systems to accommodate lateral protection posts with boards or fences. The 15? inclination ensures greater space for concreting work.

To create space for the mounting of crane lifting clamps for moving, the toe board is inserted securely in the central angle bracket of the support for transportation purposes. This means it is available for use in its initial position directly after the relocation process to prevent persons and objects from slipping or falling.
