Application

Safety solution for service riser and lift shaft voids on construction sites.

Description

The galvanized steel framework and GRP grating covers offer the perfect combination of strength, safety and adaptability on site. There is no need to cut service holes ahead of time or to crane heavy steel framework into position and the system is infinitely adjustable to allow for millimetre by millimetre changes. All components of the Dura Riser solutions are also suited to manual handling and can be adapted for use with unusual substrates such as hollow or clay pot.


Dura’s Riser solutions are a safer option than corrugated plastic, plywood and netting and prove more cost-effective in the long run as they offer much needed flexibility to construction teams. There’s no need to remove and replace heavy cover plates, and no significant contribution to construction waste.


Dura’s system is ideally suited to modular construction and enables safety requirements to be more easily met and policed. Not only is there a reduced risk of trips, slips and falls - particularly as work at height is reduced - but there is also a reduction in onsite activity.


The Post-Fix Dura Riser System is used when the void is already formed. 


Features and benefits:

  • Class B fire-rated.
  • Unique patented d² system.
  • 20mm Ball Fall Test compliant.
  • Proven Live Load tested.
  • Can eliminate the need for scaffold handrails, netting or timber shuttering.
  • Can be 'post-fixed' to concrete as a fully structural solution.
  • Choice of d² gratings, depending on ventilation, safety and load bearing priorities.
  • Low-maintenance.
  • Anti-slip.
  • Non-conductive: does not require earthing, no risk of electrical hazards.
  • Up to 80% lighter than steel grating: easily transported and manually handled into position (no need for heavy lifting equipment).
  • Gratings can be easily cut on site, allowing easy adaptation for service holes etc.
