At GSM Roofing, we take pride in delivering custom safety solutions that protect workers and comply with stringent OSHA guidelines. Our recent project at GSK Building 26 in Marietta, PA, showcases our expertise in installing perimeter safety rail systems designed for durability, functionality, and compliance.
GSM Roofing installed a 275-foot, wall-mounted Hollaender Safety Rail system on the high and low roof areas of GSK Building 26. This system was carefully designed to match the existing rails while ensuring enhanced safety and long-term performance.

Safety rail systems are protective barriers installed on rooftops, platforms, or other elevated work areas to prevent falls. These systems are critical for ensuring worker safety, complying with OSHA regulations, and reducing liability risks for businesses.
Safety rail systems act as a physical barrier, preventing accidental falls from roofs or elevated areas. They provide peace of mind for workers and supervisors, ensuring compliance with federal safety standards and reducing workplace injuries.
For this project, GSM Roofing utilized high-quality materials, including:
These durable materials ensure long-lasting performance in challenging environments.

I did get a chance to inspect the roof of this church last week. There was no damage to the roof, it is actually in quite good condition since it was installed in the late 80’s or early 90’s. The leaks they are experiencing are at the flashing transitions to the stone masonry and one at a brick masonry chimney.
But I did want to tell you that I was very impressed with Austin, the young fellow that ran the lift for me. I am not sure I have ever had such a smooth and accurately-placed ride. It wasn’t the highest roof I ever had to look at, and maybe the equipment rental was newer, but still, it was refreshing to see the competence of that young fellow.
