Exploring the Benefits of Modular Safety Handrails with Kee Klamp®


When it comes to ensuring the safety of your employees and visitors on commercial premises, having reliable and sturdy safety barriers is crucial. But what if you could have a handrail system that's not only safe but also adaptable and easy to install? Kee Klamp® - the modular safety handrail solution that's been keeping people safe since 1934.

 

The Versatility of Modular Safety Handrails 

One of the biggest advantages of modular handrails like Kee Klamp® is their versatility. Unlike traditional welded handrails, modular handrail systems can be easily configured to suit your specific dimensions and needs. Whether you're looking to install a safety barrier on a staircase, a guardrail on a mezzanine, or a handrail on a disabled access ramp, Kee Klamp® fittings can be adapted to create a perfect solution.

This flexibility also means that if your needs change over time, you can easily modify your Kee Klamp® modular handrail to accommodate those changes. Need to add a gate or extend the handrail? No problem - simply add or remove fittings as needed. This modular design not only saves you time and money on installation but also ensures that your safety handrail can evolve with your business.

Durability You Can Count On 

Of course, a modular safety handrail is only effective if it's built to last, especially in outdoor environments. That's why Kee Klamp® fittings are made from high-quality galvanised steel, ensuring maximum strength and corrosion resistance. In fact, Kee Klamp® fittings are so durable that many installations from decades ago are still in use today, withstanding various weather conditions.

But durability isn't just about the materials used - it's also about the manufacturing process. Kee Klamp® fittings undergo rigorous quality control procedures, including conforming to ISO 9001 standards and being TÜV certified for strength and consistency. This attention to detail ensures that every Kee Klamp® fitting you use will perform to the highest standards, giving you peace of mind that your handrail will stand the test of time across many different environments.

Easy Installation and Maintenance 

Another key benefit of modular handrails like Kee Klamp® is how easy they are to install and maintain. The installation process is straightforward - Kee Klamp® fittings simply slide onto the tube and are secured with an Allen key. This means that installation can be done quickly and easily by your own maintenance team, without the need for hot works permits or external contractors. The modular nature of the system also makes it ideal for DIY enthusiasts looking to install handrails in outdoor settings.

And if a section of your handrail gets damaged? Simply remove the affected fittings and replace them - no need to dismantle the entire structure. This ease of maintenance not only saves you time and money but also minimises disruption to your operations. Plus, the galvanised steel construction of Kee Klamp® ensures low maintenance and long-lasting durability.
