How does the RSS System work?

The system is mounted in the gutter in three simple steps:

1. Every 3 meters a post is placed in the gutter and fixed. For this, a gas spring is integrated in the stanchion.
2. Then the handrail is clicked into the stanchion.
3. Then the toe board is hung under the railing and everything is ready for use.

In the event of a fall, force is generated on the fence. This force is absorbed by the stanchion, which is supported against the facade. In addition, the system is connected to the roof construction at a roof pitch of 30°. The load on the gutter is minimal!
