How to Build a 45" Tall Guardrail using 94" Tall Posts
 

All 94" tall posts can be used to build a 45" tall guardrail.

This feature is useful in the following situations:

  • you want to build a 45" tall guardrail but only have 94" tall posts in your inventory.
  • 94" tall posts with fall arrest net are in use. You intend to remove the barrier screen to facilitate work, yet must provide guardrail protection.

Installation Notes:

  • The 10' long aluminum forked braces are not required if the 94" tall posts are used in a guardrail configuration without any overhead straps.
  • To allow unobstructed operation of the Midrail ratchet, the Midrail ratchet strap will require a 4' extension strap with quick link (Part SR-4-NR). The extension strap positions the ratchet clear of the forked brace.
