The following cost comparison illustrates how the Cap
Guard system is more cost effective to use as a temporary guardrail
system versus the standard use of lumber.
*Costs listed are approximate. The comparison is based on the average amount of material and labor required for a floor size of 3800-4000 square feet. It will take approximately 100 Cap Guards or 100 pieces of 2X4 measured to meet OSHA standards.
