tirsdag 02. februar 2010 |
 Nederland - Beek en Donk
Brabantse Montage Dakbedekkingen heeft een omvangrijke dakrenovatie op de Nassau - Dietz Kazerne te Budel van 2.200 m2 uitgevoerd.
Bij zo’n groot project spelen de kosten voor valbeveiliging een grote rol. Leon Theunissen: “We zijn zeer tevreden over de valbeveiliging van RSS. Het is een licht systeem en is supersnel op- en af te bouwen. Het was voor ons een zeer groot voordeel dat we geen steigers hoefden te plaatsen. Dankzij RSS hebben we veel kosten bespaard.”

Master carpenter Röders uses RSS when building roof dormers |
|
|
|
tirsdag 26. januar 2010 |
 Germany - Mönchengladbach
Peter Röders relies not only on quality, but also on safety. The patented roof dormers this experienced craftsman builds completely individually in his workshop using state-of-the-art technology are lifted onto the roof with the help of mobile cranes and as a rule fitted in only one day.
Röders looks back upon 40 years of company history and offers his dormers at a price-performance ratio that has been well thought through; thanks to RSS, safety at work is already included in the price. He can forgo costly scaffolding entirely but still work safely.
Checks on site by the construction industry health & safety inspectors are no problem for Röders. Any closure of a building site would also entail serious consequences for Röders – because when the dormer is delivered the roof has already been laid completely open ... so the last thing Röders needs is interruptions. With RSS, Röders can look forward to a safe future.

 Sweden - Kalmar
Da firma Takrekond i Småland AB skulle udføre tagarbejde på nogle boligblokke i Kalmar, henvendte man sig til Tholmarks Uthyrning AB i Oskarshamn for at søge råd.
Tholmarks som netop var blevet forhandler af faldsikringssystemerne fra RSS-International i Danmark, kunne derfor med det samme foreslå en løsning.
Takrekond accepterede straks forslaget og 3 dage efter sin henvendelse, havde Tholmarks leveret 140 m Faldsikring fra RSS-International i Danmark.

The RSS steep roof system is used by the construction company Rainer Teigel |
|
|
|
mandag 06. juli 2009 |
 Germany - Werne
Rainer Teigel specializes in the installation of PV-equipment. Thanks to the RSS steep roof system, Ranier Teigel is able to secure his construction sites quickly and safely.
″It's a fabulous system and we are much more flexible than we used to be. It's almost as if we have no need for scaffolding anymore. I charge the customer 50% of the usual costs for the scaffolding. The customer is satisfied because of the low costs. Besides that, there are no drill holes in the wall anymore. I serve my building sites irrespectively of the rigger and I am still able to offer my customers the whole package.″ - Rainer Tiegel (Owner)
In the beginning Rainer Teigel ordered 15 meters of the steep roof system and the system has already paid for itself, saving the company (give and amount of money per job) in a short amount of time.

Gommers saves 30% of cost thanks to edge protection from RSS |
|
|
|
søndag 16. november 2008 |
The
Netherlands - Nijmegen
Roofing contractors Gommers have started work on a major renovation
of approx. 7,500 m2 of
corrugated sheet on a student housing complex in Nijmegen. Fall protection facilities are
required by law there. "We first considered building scaffolding. That's what
we've been doing for years", says René Gommers, director of Gommers Dakwerken.
"Normally we would have to erect about 860 metres of scaffolding. My client, the student
housing association in Nijmegen,
had read about edge protection for sloping roofs from Roof Safety Systems on
the Internet. If you erect scaffolding, you give burglars really easy access to the backdoor of around 750 apartments.
That was a problem for the client. The RSS system has solved it."
Roof Safety
Systems provided Gommers and its client with a demonstration on site. "With no
obligation up front, RSS installed a trial
installation of 12
metres on the roof," says René Gommers. That says something about the trust RSS has in its
own product. I really liked that. Everyone was enthusiastic. It is a great system that really works. Very convenient and safe. Our employees are really enthusiastic
too."
"So we started calculating. We counted up the costs of building and
dismantling, the cherry-picker and purchase of the RSS system. The saving versus scaffolding was no less
than 30%. So we bought 60 metres of edge protection at once. It's a
one-time investment that we can also use for future projects."
The renovation has started and will last 7 months.

Roofing contractor Gerritzen "won twofold" |
|
|
|
torsdag 09. oktober 2008 |
 Germany - Duisburg
Roofing contractor Gerritzen in Duisburg needed to install a new layer of slated bituminous sheeting on a flat roof; the eaves (see picture) needed to be secured accordingly.
Building height = 15 m Width = 6 m; the scaffolding contractor would have had to build about 100 m² of scaffolding (costs of approx. € 500.00).
Mr Gerritzen was annoyed about the relatively high scaffolding costs. The scaffolding contractor would have had the required 100 m² of scaffolding available only after a lead time of about 1 – 2 weeks. So time was also of the essence for the roofer.
Mr Gerritzen wanted to stay flexible and asked his dealer about alternatives to the scaffolding. His attention was drawn to RSS and he quickly rented 6 metres of the RSS steep roof system.
Mounting the 6 metres of the RSS steep roof system took about 15 minutes.
Including the rental costs, Mr Gerritzen saved around € 400.00 here and the roof was finished before the scaffolding contractor would have been able to turn out in the first place.
So Mr Gerritzen won twofold with RSS: On the one hand a cost saving of approx. 80%, but on the other hand Mr Gerritzen maintained the flexibility so important to him.

Permanent fencing Regional Fire Service |
|
|
|
mandag 29. september 2008 |
|
Netherlands - Venlo
In mid-September, RSS installed permanent fencing on the building of the Regional Fire Service for northern and
central Limburg. According to Messrs Stultiens
and Bouten of sector safety that
was not a difficult decision: "Based on a risk inventory of our building, it
appeared that walking on the roof and maintenance of the systems there
could not be performed safely.
On the roof are various
ventilation units and air conditioners that need an annual inspection. Most of
these systems stand within 2
metres from the edge of the roof. The safety of internal
and external technicians had to be
guaranteed. After requesting information from the SBD (Roofing
Industry Foundation) we were referred on
to Roof Safety Systems BV in Venlo.
They have just installed the first phase of 45 metres to our complete
satisfaction."
The RSS system is completely in aluminium and is
placed free-standing on the roof. The system is very light, quick to build up and, if necessary, easy to dismantle. The RSS system is certified
by Aboma & Keboma in accordance with the highest standards in force at
this time.

Renovering af skiffertag i Belgien med faldsikringsystemet RSS |
|
|
|
tirsdag 01. maj 2007 |
 Belgien - Zoersel
Tagdækkerfirmæt Frans Corvers er startet på renoveringen på et skiffertag på et forhenværende kloster, efter ordren fra entreprenørfirmæt Van Hout. Klosteret er p.t. under ombygning til kommunekantor.
Efter et møde mellem alle parterne valgte men faldsikringsystemet rss for skrå tag, som sikkering.
I modsætning til et traditional stillads er men omkostnings besparende og hurtiger.
i.flg. Frans Corvers er RSS faldsikring for skrå tag et fantastisk system som er meget hurtigt og nemt at monterer.
Et anden stor fordel ved faldsikringsystemet fra RSS er at arbejdet ved jorden, under hele renoveringen, uden problemer kan fortsætte, simpelthen p.g.a systemets forankring ved tagrenden.
Udtaler personalet fra entreprenøren Van Hout.

76 meter af spc. tilpasset faldsikringssystem hos ANL Plastic. |
|
|
|
torsdag 08. november 2007 |
 Wellen, Belgien
ANL Plastic udvikler thermo-formede plastikemballage der er lavet efter mål. Da dette, for det meste er emballage for fødevareindustrien, producerer firmaet også legetøj og covers til mobiltelefoner. For to år siden byggede ANL Plastic en ny kontorbygning med fladt tag. RSS leverede og monterede 76 meter af spc. tilpasset faldsikringssystem.
Den permanente faldsikring fra RSS er et atraktivt og effektivt system. Frank Neven udtalte sig således om årsagen til at vælge permanent faldsikringssystem fra RSS: Der var ikke noget lovkrav om at etablere et faldsikringssystem. Men for at udelukke ulykker, tog ANL Plastic selv initiativ til at etablere et faldsikringssystem. Tilslutningerne til al brandslukning er anbragt på taget. Alle bygninger kan nås fra dette tag når der skal slukkes ildebrand. Firmaet skulle garantere for sikkerheden på taget under bekæmpelsen af en. evnt. brand, ligesom for de almindelige brandøvelser.
Som en sikkerhedsforanstaltning, installerede ANL Plastic et faldsikringssystem fra RSS. I sin søgen efter et egnet system, kontaktede Frank Neven det firma som havde stået for byggeriet to år tidligere. Entreprenørfirmaet som havde erfaringer med faldsikringssystemer, rådede ham til at kontakte Roof Safety Systems.
Den permanente faldsikring som blev installeret af RSS er vedligeholdesesfri. Der kan flyttes rundt med det efter behov. RSS tog kontakt til et ingeniørfirma vedr. placering af støttebjælker. Arbejdstilsynet godkendte systemet. En sådan certifisering var naturligvis meget vigtigt.
Frank Neven er meget begejstret; faldsikringssystemer som dette vil helt sikkert blive installeret på andre tage. “Vi vil måske installere RSS Faldsikringssystemet andre steder på vores bygninger, hvor vi ikke selv færdes så meget, men benyttes af vores leverandører”. Så ikke alene er deres eget personale sikret, men de kan også tage den med ro, når der skal udføres vedligeholdelsesarbejder af andre håndværkere, f.eks. af ventilationssystemet ude på taget. Strengere regulativer er på vej, siger Frank Neven, “Og så vil vi helt sikkert opfylde de nye krav med RSS’s permanente Faldsikringssystem.

Roofing Contractors Böcker in Dortmund enthusiastic about RSS |
|
|
|
tirsdag 11. september 2007 |
 Germany - Dortmund
In June 2007, Dirk Böcker, director of Böcker GmbH in Dortmund, bought 24 metres of RSS roof edge protection for sloping roofs. The employees, including Dirk Böcker, are amazed by the simplicity and safety offered by the RSS system. “The roofs in the centre of Dortmund are mostly very high. So we now place the RSS system everywhere, because it can be installed in no time using our own crane. We can now handle small and large projects without first having to build permanent scaffolding. We work much more flexibly, save time and the costs are much lower relative to traditional scaffolding. I quickly earned back the first 24 metres of RSS.
In August 2007, Böcker was carrying out a roof renovation for the well-known housing association DOGEWO. During the renovation they needed to secure a total of almost 180 metres of roof edge. To do so, Böcker again ordered 24 metres of RSS roof edge protection. “The RSS system for sloping roofs can easily be used for flat roofs too. Because the system hangs on the roof edge, we could carry out the entire renovation without having to keep moving the system; it couldn’t have been easier. The housing association was also enthusiastic about the simplicity of the RSS system. After all, it saved an awful lot of scaffolding.”
At the moment, Böcker GmbH has about 50 metres of RSS edge protection. “Our employees take the RSS system to the site as standard. The RSS system is a combination of time-saving and safety on our roofs”, says Dirk Böcker.

Wouters Roofing Contractor enthusiastic about RSS edge protection |
|
|
|
torsdag 31. maj 2007 |
|
 Belgium – Tessenderlo
Roofing contractor Wouters has been using the RSS edge protection system for sloping roofs for three months now. This is a two-man business active in renovation and new building.
“The system is easy, light and dependable”, says Mario Wouters. Wouters bought 9 metres of edge protection fencing and uses the system almost daily. “Building up the edge protection is really fast: 9 metres in 10 minutes. First we place a ladder in the middle and place a stanchion to the left and right of the ladder and then hang the 3 metre fence in it. Once on the roof, we then place the remaining stanchions and fencing. The system doesn’t even get in the way if you’re standing in the gutter. It’s a terrific system!”
And safety? “I really had to cling to it once”, says Marco Wouters “and it held firm”. With the RSS edge protection system I create a good impression with my customers. People say to me: OK, that looks good!”
For Wouters it is important that the edge protection can also be used on roofs with an overhang of 1 metre. “It’s a smart system, you realise they’ve thought things through. It’s easy to stack. I lay everything on top of each other and it lies stable. If you can do that you’re going to buy more. So we’re now going to order another 9 metres.”

Ruiter Dakkapellen i gang med RSS |
|
|
|
fredag 10. november 2006 |
|
 
Holland - Houten
Firmaet Ruiter Dakkapellen er etableret i Ursem, og er hollandsk
markedsleder og specialist i kviste. For nylig blev 11 kviste sat op
samtidig, og her benyttede man faldsikringssystemer fra RSS.
“Et glimrende system, nemt at sætte op og nemt at bruge,” fortæller
Dennis Groot. “Når vi kan forankre en livline til kvisten, arbejder vi
med en buksesele med falddæmpere. I dette projekt var dette ikke
muligt, og derfor måtte vi bruge et faldsikringssystem. At bygge et
stillads er besværligt og dyrt. En kvist bliver sat op på én dag. Med
et stillads skal der planlægges for meget. Først en dag til
opbygningen, den næste dag skal kvisten anbringes, og derefter skal
stilladset brydes ned igen. Det er besværligt at planlægge dette, og
mange gange vil vi gerne kunne sætte kvisten op med det samme, men det
kan så ikke lade sig gøre.”
Derfor har man foretrukket RSS. “RSS’s system er hurtigt og nemt at
sætte op. Vi købte 7 sæt à 6 meter på en gang. Så har vi altid et sæt
til disposition, når vi skal sætte en kvist op.”
Ruiter Dakkapellen har showrooms over hele Holland.

Tagdækkerfirmaet D&B om RSS |
|
|
|
torsdag 09. februar 2006 |
 Holland - Tegelen
"Før i tiden brugte vi altid stilladser," fortæller John van den Bogaard fra tagdækkerfirmaet D&B Tegelen. "Det gav os altid problemer. Enten beskadigede vi beboernes haver med stilladserne, eller vi havde for lidt plads til at sætte dem op. Desuden er opsætningen af et stillads tidrøvende og derfor dyr. Da RSS-systemet for nogle år siden kom på markedet, var vi der som én af de første. Systemet er i mellemtiden blevet videreudviklet endnu mere, vi har holdt godt øje med, hvad der er kommet af nyt og har allerede brugt systemet til mange projekter og til fuld tilfredshed."

Holland - Veldhoven
En ny bruger er Doorn Dakspecialist fra Veldhoven. Firmaet bruger i øjeblikket udelukkende systemet til arbejde på skrå tage og har i almindelighed 100 meter tagkantsikring på lager. Til det flade tag bruger man stadig traditionelle hække, men man vil snart også begynde at bruge RSS-systemet her. "Det er et let system," siger Peter Schuermans. "Det gør brugen af tagkantsikringen en hel del nemmere end før. Når systemet er anbragt – og det går let og hurtigt – er en hel tagflade allerede beskyttet."
