Fall Prevention: Here’s Why A Roof Lifeline System Is The Best Option

Anytime you need access to large areas on your building’s roof to perform inspections, maintenance or repairs, OSHA requires you to have a fall protection system. There are many options available but a guardrail system might not be cost-effective and multiple anchor points might make it challenging to move around on your roof.

A roof lifeline system allows the user to access large sections of the roof, safely and efficiently. SafetyLink’s horizontal lifeline systems make crossing along lifelines quick and easy, without having to disconnect from the line at any point. Based on the user’s access requirements, the roof lifeline system can be positioned to keep them in fall arrest or restraint.
