Downpipe Protectors

What is a Metal Downpipe Protector?

A metal downpipe protector, sometimes known as a downpipe guard or downpipe cover, is a galvanised sheet metal protector that is folded into shape to cover and protect downpipes. These are provided in varying sizes to cover all downpipe sizes. If a custom size or height is required, Area Safe can provide this too! We also have custom powder coated downpipe protectors too.

Protecting downpipes is very important, especially for commercial or industrial buildings. If a downpipe is ran into or backed into by a truck, vehicle or forklift – including forklift tines – the downpipe, whether poly or galvanised steel, will be crushed or punctured. A broken downpipe can cause flooding or water damage, especially internal downpipes. Therefore it is extremely important to cover your downpipes with a metal downpipe protector!
