Vertical Lifeline Systems / Ladder Fall Protection Systems

Vertical lifeline systems provide convenient, safe and reliable personal fall protection for workers who perform vertical climbing tasks. Many ladder related accidents are preventable with the use of a vertical lifeline and a fall protection rope grab system. A vertical lifeline enables mobility up and down the entire height of the line, eliminating the need to disconnect and find a new tie-off point along the way. An anchor point travels with you so that you have the mobility to climb while maintaining an anchor point above your D-ring. These systems are usually a rope, a cable, or a track to which a worker is attached via a full body harness and lanyard. A variety of system designs are available to best fit specific tasks and job sites. These include flexible cable ladder safety systems and synthetic rope with safety rope grab systems.

Flexible Cable and Fixed Ladder Fall Protection Systems

Ladder Safety Systems are systems attached to a fixed ladder which are engineered to eliminate or minimize the possibility of a worker falling off the ladder. A flexible cable ladder safety system usually consists of a carrier, safety sleeve, lanyard, connectors, and body harness. These systems are an economical and versatile solution for many different applications.

DBI-SALA's Lad-Saf flexible cable ladder safety systems assure worker safety and security when climbing fixed ladders on poles, towers, tanks, etc. providing greater safety and security than conventional ladder cages. Lad-Saf's flexible cable system offers fall protection when climbing a fixed ladder, allowing users to ascend or descend unrestricted. Every system is designed to your specific needs.
