- Fast Response: Rapid deployment to keep active projects on schedule.
- Standardized Systems: Reliable equipment for consistent, repeatable safety.
- Clear Documentation: Streamlined reporting for Superintendents, PMs, and GCs.
Fall Arrest and Fall Protection made for your type of work
COMMERCIAL FALL PROTECTION
RESIDENTIAL FALL PROTECTION
Different projects require different applications. Explore how fall protection systems are applied in residential and commercial environments.
What are Fall Arrest & Fall Protection Solutions?
Fall Protection is the overarching strategy for ensuring safety at heights. It encompasses passive systems (like guardrails) that prevent access to hazards without worker action, and active systems that require workers to wear gear.
Fall Arrest & Fall Protection systems are critical for:
- Elevated decks and slabs
- Roof edges and leading edges
- Interior framing and structural work
- Maintenance and access operations
Guardrails for Commercial & Facilities
Engineered, permanent systems for maintenance and facility access.
Protect maintenance teams with engineered fall arrest and protection systems designed for complex facility environments. From overhead rigid rails to permanent roof anchors, our solutions ensure secure, continuous tie-off for personnel servicing HVAC units, lighting, and industrial equipment.
Common applications:
- Roof access for HVAC, mechanical, and electrical work
- Facility and maintenance teams
- Industrial and manufacturing facilities
- Schools, campuses, and government buildings
- Multi-building portfolios
- Façade access and window washing
Key benefits:
- OSHA / ANSI compliant
- Permanent, long-life systems
- Horizontal lifelines for continuous movement
- Inspections, recertification, and documentation
Fall Protection for Residential Homes & Roofing
Safe, simple tie-off solutions for homeowners and roofing crews.
Ensure safety on steep-slope residential projects with robust fall arrest systems designed for flexibility and ease of use. These solutions allow framing, siding, and roofing crews to work efficiently while remaining continuously secured against falls.
Common applications:
- Roofing projects
- Gutter cleaning & maintenance
- Storm damage repair
- Insurance-driven replacements
- Homeowner tie-off points
- Ladder and roof-edge transitions
- Temporary anchors for short-term projects
Key benefits:
- Simple installation
- Affordable and highly effective
- Compatible with shingle, tile, metal, and other roof types
- Safer access for routine home maintenance
- Peace of mind for homeowners and contractors
THE ONSITE SAFETY DIFFERENCE
Types of Fall Arrest & Protection Systems
We offer a range of engineered solutions to match your environment and safety needs.
Personal Fall Arrest Systems
Complete active systems consisting of full-body harnesses, shock-absorbing connecting devices, and secure anchorage points designed to safely stop a fall in progress.
Horizontal Lifelines
Flexible cable or track systems that allow workers to traverse large areas—such as rooftops, crane rails, or bridges—without disconnecting.
Vertical Lifelines
Rope or cable systems equipped with fall arresters (rope grabs) for safe vertical mobility on fixed ladders, towers, and steep-slope residential roofs.
Overhead Rigid Rails
Permanent track systems often used in industrial facilities; they eliminate cable sag to minimize free-fall distance and reduce swing hazards.
Fall Restraint Systems
Proactive setups that tether a worker to an anchor point with a fixed-length lanyard, physically preventing them from reaching a leading edge or fall hazard.
HOW IT WORKS
A safe anchor system requires more than hardware—it requires expertise. Our process ensures your anchors are installed correctly and documented properly.
1. Site Assessment
We evaluate your roof or structure, map hazards, and determine the anchors needed.
2. Engineering Review
Anchors are selected or custom-engineered
3. Professional Installation
Our certified technicians securely install your anchor system according to engineering specifications and safety standards.
4. Load Testing and Certification
We perform rigorous pull-testing on installed anchors to verify capacity and issue formal certification for compliance.
5. Training and Orientation
We provide hands-on instruction for your team on how to properly inspect, connect to, and use the installed anchorage system.
6. Documentation Package
You receive a comprehensive closeout binder containing system drawings, test results, warranties, and user manuals for future reference.

FAQs
Answers to the most common questions from residential contractors, commercial builders, and jobsite safety teams.
How strong must a fall arrest anchor point be?
Per OSHA standards, a fall arrest anchor must be capable of supporting at least 5,000 lbs (22.2 kN) per employee attached. Alternatively, it can be designed, installed, and used as part of a complete system that maintains a safety factor of at least two, under the supervision of a Qualified Person.
Do anchors work on every roof type?
No single anchor works for every roof, but there is a solution for every material. You must select an anchor specifically engineered for your substrate—whether it is a clamp for standing seam metal, a bolt-on point for wood or concrete, or a weighted base for flat membrane roofs.
Do fall protection systems require inspections?
Yes, two types are required. First, the user must perform a pre-use inspection of all equipment (harness, lanyard, anchor) before every shift. Second, a documented annual inspection must be performed by a "Competent Person" to verify the system's structural integrity and compliance.
Are non-penetrating anchors reliable?
Yes. Non-penetrating (deadweight) anchors are fully OSHA-compliant when installed on compatible flat surfaces (up to a 5-degree slope). They utilize friction and counterweights to arrest falls without damaging the roof membrane, making them ideal for leased buildings or preserving warranties.
OUTCOMES
Safer crews. Fewer delays. One standard.
Fall protection systems help maintain safe access, support compliance, and provide consistent protection wherever work is performed at height.
