GS METALS, the leading domestic producer of safety grating products, introduces the new GRATEWALK™ Metal Rooftop Walkway System…a pathway to leak-free, long-lasting metal roofs.

Metal roofs meet a wide variety of design and performance needs. As a result, the square footage and building varieties covered by metal standing seam roofs has increased rapidly. These thin gauged roofing systems are engineering wonders, but they are not made to absorb foot and maintenance traffic. GS METALS offers GRATEWALK Systems to solve this problem. In addition, it is an ideal solution for safer footing on rooftop applications.

GRATEWALK Walkways provide a safe pathway to service mechanical equipment on metal roof systems. They are elevated to discourage shortcuts and define a visible path. They provide open, slip-resistant grating surfaces, renowned for safe, sure footing in all weather. GRATEWALK Walkways are fastened to rooftop seams using accepted and reliable methods. Made of corrosion-resistant galvanized steel, the walkways deliver long service life with virtually no maintenance. GRATEWALK Walkways provide unsurpassed life-cycle economy. Roofs last longer with fewer leaks and owners save on maintenance and re-roofing expense.

The system is available with GS METALS different walking surfaces such as GRATE-LOCK®, GRIP STRUT®, TRACTION TREAD™ and PERF-O GRIP®, making it ideal for any roof. Attachment hardware for virtually all roof systems are also available. Request Bulletin GRATE MRWS.
