Rooftop supports

Your challenge, our support.

Modern rooftops are becoming increasingly crowded with HVAC units, pipework, cable trays and solar installations. As a result, finding a safe and reliable way to support all the equipment without damaging the roof can be complex. Install rooftop supports for HVAC installations and access walkways with ease, using Walraven’s corrosion-resistant, modular systems.

Walraven rooftop solutions are engineered for ease of installation, longevity and to protect the building integrity. With a wide range of solutions for flat and pitched roofs, our Technical Team can design optimal support systems to meet your project goals.

Save time, reduce risk and keep your project moving.

Why are rooftop installations challenging?

Getting rooftop equipment to work efficiently is about more than simply placing equipment on a roof.

Installers must consider roof integrity, load distribution, weather exposure, limited installation time, and safe access for future maintenance.

Technical requirements, regulations, safety standards, and the risk of damaging the roof membrane can add complexity, cost, and uncertainty to a project. Walraven supports you from design through to installation, to help your project run as smooth as possible.

Reliable rooftop solutions from design to installation

Protect roof integrity, simplify installation and deliver long-lasting rooftop solutions with confidence.

Technical expertise

From design, calculations and engineering advice to validated solutions, Walraven provides technical support throughout the project to help overcome complex rooftop challenges.

Protect building integrity

Non-penetrative support systems help maintain the roof membrane integrity, distribute loads effectively and minimise the risk of leaks or structural damage.

Fast installation

Support HVAC units, pipework, cable trays, walkways and more using flexible, modular components that can be adapted to different roof layouts and project requirements.

Long-term reliability

A range of material finishes deliver excellent corrosion protection, long life and reduced maintenance. From Walraven BIS UltraProtect® 1000 surface protection to stainless steel options.

How are rooftop support solutions used?

Access walkways and stairs

Safe and convenient access to rooftop services is essential for ongoing inspection and maintenance.

Walraven walkway and stepover solutions can be constructed using Walraven RapidStrut® channel, Walraven Yeti® support feet and service grid platforms.

Modular construction for any size and configuration of stepover and walkway
Robust, non-slip access routes that keep people safe and protect the roof membrane
High corrosion protection to ensure long-lasting installations

Pipe, cable and HVAC supports

With high demands on buildings for heating and cooling systems, rooftops can become crowded spaces.

Walraven can design suitable supports with modular systems that can be configurated for even the most challenging rooftop layouts.

Support anything from small A/C units, cable tray and pipe runs, to ducting and high load HVAC equipment
Easy construction with modular components and support feet tailored to different applications
Non-penetrative, easy to adjust solutions with high corrosion protection

Solar panel support frames

On crowded rooftops, sometimes solar panel installations need to be installed around existing HVAC equipment.

Walraven solutions allow for optimal use of space, especially when solar panels need to be placed above existing equipment and maximise the use of panels on slopes.

Bespoke layouts are possible using modular channel support systems
No impact on the performance of the surrounding HVAC equipment
