Walk pads can help manage designated service paths, but they do not make every part of a roof safe for unrestricted traffic. Their selection and installation must suit the roof system and equipment access needs.

What to do next

Ask the project team to map regular routes to equipment. Review the proposed pads with the membrane manufacturer's guidance. Keep pads clear of critical drainage details and include their condition in future maintenance inspections.
