Frontline Guardrail System Non-Penetrating Complete 75' Kit
OSHA & CAL OSHA-Compliant, Fall Protection for Roofs and Elevated Work Areas
FrontLine's patent-pending GUS75 75-foot Guardrail System offers the lightest, most transportable non-penetrating guardrail solution on the market. Built with high-strength ASTM-rated steel and finished in electrostatic safety green or safety yellow for maximum visibility, this system eliminates fall hazards without damaging your roof or work surface. The innovative base design offers superior handling, storage efficiency, and jobsite versatility, making it one of the most advanced fall prevention systems available today.
Engineered GuardRail Kit for Safety, Efficiency, and Reusability
Lightweight base design with toe board slots and EPDM stabilizers
Each base weighs just 56 lbs., making it the lightest in its class while still offering unmatched stability. The base features two extended EPDM supports that securely grip the surface without causing damage, along with two ergonomic rubber foam handles for easier lifting and positioning. Toe board slots on each base help prevent dropped objects, and two through-holes allow for optional fixed installation when needed.
The system breaks down quickly and stacks four pallets high for efficient transport and storage.

Frontline GUS75 Guardrail Frequently Asked Questions
1. Does this guardrail system require drilling into the roof?
No. The GUS75 is a non-penetrating system. It uses weighted 56-lb steel bases with EPDM rubber stabilizers to provide the necessary friction and stability to meet OSHA requirements without piercing the roof membrane.
2. How does the system meet OSHA's 200-lb force requirement?
The system is engineered and third-party tested to withstand a 200-lb load applied in any outward or downward direction at the top rail. This is achieved through the patented base design and the secure dual grub screw locking mechanism that attaches the rails to the bases.
3. Are "returns" or "outriggers" required for the ends of the run?
Yes. To maintain OSHA compliance on a freestanding system, a "return" (a guardrail section at a 90-degree angle) is typically required at the ends of a straight run to provide lateral stability. Refer to the owner's manual for specific end-of-run configurations.
4. Can I use this guardrail system on a sloped roof?
Freestanding guardrail systems are intended for flat or low-slope roofs. The GUS75 is safe for use on surfaces with a slope of up to 1:12 (approx. 5 degrees). For steeper slopes, the bases must be mechanically fastened to the structure using the integrated through-holes.
5. Do I need to purchase toe boards separately?
The GUS75 bases come with integrated toe board slots. While the kit includes the bases and rails, the actual toe board material (typically 2x4 lumber or metal plates) is sourced separately to fit the specific needs of your project site.
6. Is the safety green/yellow finish resistant to rust?
Yes. The components feature an electrostatic anti-corrosive coating. This finish is designed for long-term outdoor exposure, resisting UV degradation and rust in commercial and industrial environments.
7. How do I avoid common problems during installation?
- 1. Tighten Grub Screws: Ensure the dual grub screws are fully seated to prevent rail wobble or unintended movement.
- 2. Surface Debris: Clear the roof of loose gravel or ice where bases will sit; maximum friction is required for non-penetrating stability.
- 3. Leveling: On slightly uneven surfaces, ensure the bases are seated firmly on their EPDM supports to prevent "rocking."
