Rooftop Mounting Components
A1000 Equipment Screen Rail
PalmSHIELD’s A1000 Equipment Rail offers a fully engineered solution for mounting rooftop screening, designed to handle eight-foot-tall screens, high wind loads, and seismic events. Constructed from 8” x 2” x ¼” structural aluminum channels, the system supports customizable attachment patterns for various roof types, ensuring alignment with structural members like beams and purlins.
Diagonal Supports
Diagonal supports, featuring column-mounted and rail-attached pivot brackets with aluminum tubular supports, are secured with stainless steel bolts. Designed to match rooftop rail length, screen fencing type, and application, they create a robust system capable of withstanding demanding wind loads.
Cantilevered Supports
When rooftop attachment isn’t possible, the screen fence can connect directly to mechanical equipment with an external structural skeleton. PalmSHIELD designs custom cantilevered truss systems that extend from the equipment to securely support the screen fencing, tailored to the fencing type and structural demands.
