Long Toe Rail Bracket Attachment, 2-Pack
The Guardian 15185 adds the toeboard: a long toe rail bracket that attaches to the guardrail system and holds the kick plate OSHA requires wherever material could fall on workers below. Sold as a 2-pack to complete a rail section.
Installed per the manual, it supports the toeboard provisions of OSHA 1926.502.

Who Needs This Product
Guardrails stop workers; toeboards stop the hammer that follows. Wherever trades stack below the protected edge, the kick plate is part of the compliant rail, and the long bracket makes it a bolt-on instead of a site-built afterthought.
