High foot traffic is one of the fastest ways to shorten the life of a low-slope roof. Service paths to HVAC units, drains, and access points can lead to membrane wear, punctures, and safety concerns if not properly protected. FlashCo addresses this challenge with their Walkway Rolls, designed to help contractors safeguard roofing systems while creating safe, clearly defined walking areas.
FlashCo’s TPO and PVC Walkway Rolls are engineered to reduce damage caused by routine maintenance activity on commercial roofs. Installed as designated pathways, these walkways help preserve membrane integrity in critical areas where technicians frequently travel. Available for both TPO and PVC roofing systems, Walkway Rolls can be added to new or existing roof installations to provide long-term protection without increasing maintenance demands.
FlashCo’s Walkway Rolls should be installed in accordance with the recommendations and specifications of the roofing material manufacturer.
1 - Prepare all welding surfaces by cleaning with membrane cleaner.
2 - Place walkway in the desired location using a maximum length of 10 feet.
3 - Position pieces with a minimum 1” to 6” gap between pieces to allow for water drainage.
4 - Heat weld walkway to deck membrane.
5 - After the walkway has cooled, probe welds to verify a secure bond.
