Edge Protection System

TS EN 13374 Certified Edge Protection System

The Yağmur Edge Protection System is a temporary safety system designed to reduce the risk of falls from height at open edges on construction sites. It creates a secure boundary around slab edges, balconies, stair openings, roof edges, platforms, and similar exposed working areas.

Developed and certified in accordance with TS EN 13374, the system consists of edge protection posts, protection panels, and connection components suitable for the application surface. Thanks to its modular structure, it can be adapted to different building geometries and site conditions. Installing the system with the correct components and appropriate fixing method helps improve safety across the working area.

What Is an Edge Protection System?

An edge protection system is a temporary collective protection solution designed to help prevent workers or materials from falling from open edges. Unlike personal protective equipment, it creates a continuous safety barrier across the entire working area.

The system consists of posts fixed to the edge of the structure and protection panels attached to these posts. Depending on the application area, concrete screws or other project-specific fixing components may be used. While the protection panels prevent workers from coming into direct contact with open edges, the protective structure in the lower section also helps reduce the risk of small tools and materials falling from height.

TS EN 13374 Standard

TS EN 13374 is the standard that defines product specifications, performance requirements, and test methods for temporary edge protection systems. Within the scope of this standard, the strength, connection points, components, and intended conditions of use of the system are evaluated according to defined criteria.

The products and configurations of the Yağmur Edge Protection System covered by the certification are manufactured in accordance with TS EN 13374 requirements. Before installation, it should be verified that the system intended for use on the project complies with the scope of certification, the application area, and the specific site conditions.

Where Is It Used?

The Edge Protection System can be used in a wide range of working environments, including residential, commercial, and industrial construction projects:

• Slab and floor edges
• Balconies and terraces
• Stairwells and shaft openings
• Roof edges
• Platforms and working areas
• Formwork and reinforced concrete applications
• Façade and maintenance works

The geometry of the application area, edge configuration, surface properties, and fixing conditions should be evaluated specifically for each project.

Safe and Practical Installation

The Yağmur Edge Protection System consists of modular components designed to enable fast and organized installation on site. The compatibility between posts, panels, and connection components makes the system easier to install, dismantle when required, and reuse in different working areas.

Its durable metal construction provides a suitable solution for long-term use under demanding construction-site conditions. Reusable system components can be utilized throughout different stages of a project, providing both safety and economic advantages.

System Components

The main components of the Yağmur Edge Protection System include:

• Edge protection post
• Protection panel
• Concrete screw
• Connection components suitable for the application area
• Project-specific complementary components

The components to be used are determined according to the application surface, building geometry, and project requirements. It is important that the system is installed only with compatible and certified components.

Project-Specific Edge Protection Solutions

Every project may have different edge configurations, connection points, and safety requirements. The Yağmur Scaffolding Systems technical team evaluates project drawings, site measurements, and operating conditions to support the selection of suitable edge protection components.
