Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
Add the Bil-Guard rail whenever the hatch serves as a routine access point, so the open hatch is guarded at all times per OSHA 1910.29. Match the rail to the NB series hatch size; order the hatch, curb and ladder separately. Follow Bilco's mounting instructions for fastening to the hatch frame or curb.
Install and verify guardrail per OSHA 29 CFR 1910.29 before allowing routine hatch access.
