Edge Protection & Temporary Handrails


Professional roof edge protection and fall safety systems across Cairns and Far North Queensland.
Apex Edge Protection provides edge protection and temporary handrail systems for residential and commercial construction sites across Cairns and Far North Queensland.
We install roof edge protection and perimeter safety railing for builders, roofers, and contractors. All systems meet Australian Standards and Safe Work Australia requirements.
Based in Cairns, we service Townsville, Innisfail, Mareeba, Smithfield, and surrounding FNQ regions.
Edge protection is required whenever there is a risk of a person falling from height. Under Australian Work Health and Safety (WHS) legislation, fall protection is generally required where a fall of 2 metres or more could occur.
This commonly applies to roof edges on 1–2 storey residential builds, slab and frame perimeters, balconies, stair voids, and other unprotected edges.
Edge protection must be installed before work at height begins and remain in place until the risk of a fall has been eliminated.

At Apex Edge Protection, our mission is to provide safe, reliable, and compliant temporary edge protection and edge safety products for residential building sites across North & Far North Queensland.
