Daiken's Innovative Curved Rail for Building Maintenance
Daiken, a leading manufacturer of architectural hardware and exterior building materials, is set to release its latest product, the
Curved Rail, on January 16, 2026. Part of the Safety Rail System Maintenance Rail MRA series, this new product aims to enhance efficiency and safety for building maintenance tasks, particularly in high-rise environments where traditional scaffolding is impractical.
About the MRA Maintenance Rail
The MRA-type Maintenance Rail is a permanent fall prevention system specifically designed for high-altitude tasks such as window cleaning and facade inspections. Unlike conventional methods that require scaffolding or gondolas, this system provides greater accessibility and safety, enabling maintenance personnel to perform their duties with minimal hassle.
Key Features:
- - Components: The system includes rails, rollers, and brackets, allowing for flexible configurations tailored to various job sites. The rails can be mounted on ceilings or walls, ensuring versatility in use.
- - Material: Sturdy stainless steel is used for rust resistance, making it ideal for outdoor applications.
Increasing Adoption in Major Commercial Facilities
Daiken's MRA-type Maintenance Rail has been well-received, particularly in high-profile commercial venues like
GINZA SIX and
Toranomon Hills Station Tower. These installations emphasize the product’s ability to enhance work efficiency while promoting labor-saving measures in facility management.
New Product Introduction: Curved Rail and Special Rollers
For the first time, Daiken introduces the new
Curved Rail. Previously, maintenance workers were required to switch safety harnesses at corners when using straight rails. The Curved Rail alleviates this burden, allowing seamless transitions without the need for harness adjustments. The system will only be compatible with new constructions or renovations, as it requires a steel base for installation.
The available products include:
- - Curved Rail MRA-CR (Radius: R800mm)
- - Main Roller MRA-4MRC (For main rope suspension)
- - Backup Roller MRA-4BRC (For backup rope suspension)
Specifications:
- - Material: Stainless steel
- - Load Capacity: Up to 500 kg (based on two roller suspensions)
Commitment to Labor-Saving Solutions
Daiken is committed to developing solutions that enhance productivity and safety across various sectors. With extensive experience in producing heavy-duty rail components for moving large doors, the company has leveraged its expertise in engineering to innovate products aimed at fall prevention in high-altitude work.
In addition to the MRA Maintenance Rail, Daiken produces other fall prevention systems, such as the
Assist Rail for vehicle inspections and material transport devices for construction sites.
