4 INNOVATIVE RELIABLE SUSTAINABLE SECURE Switch Rail Safety Systems LLC was born from the experience of 40 plus years of supplying scaffolding, canopy and safety rail systems to contractors worldwide.

The basics identified include; the system must be modular, reusable, reliable and, when installed, meet or exceed OSHA standards ( (e)(5)(iv)). After several years of development and testing, Switch Rail exceeds these demands and more! The result is not innovation for innovation s sake; it is innovation that delivers ecological, logistical and economic benefits providing long term savings and peace of mind.
