Abstract

A system for the safety of those installing escalator systems having structural supports. A hand-rail is utilized having at least one post, each post made of an upper portion and a lower portion. The upper portion contains a top rail slot and a bottom rail slot for a cable to pass through, the cable is tensioned at a cable tension mount which can be located along the side of the escalator structure or to the bottom ground surface or top ground surface. The lower portion of the post contains a bottom mount and mid-bottom mount, which mount to the side of the escalator structure at the desired location of the user. This hand-rail system eliminates the need for a worker to wear a safety harness and tether to a cable which restricts motion.
