In this section, you will find temporary fall protection devices. These devices are actually horizontal lifeline systems to which a worker or two can hook themselves to while safely working at heights on a horizontal surface.

Such safety apparatus normally features at least two anchorage points at a maximum distance of 12 meters between which a tense wire or a rope also known as a flexible belaying support is installed. More often than not, there will be intermediate anchorage points between the two main anchorage points to allow a wider working surface while limiting the deflection of the support.

Once the horizontal lifeline is well installed, it offers a failsafe protection adapted to the architectural structure as well as offering many possibilities of movement thanks to the flexibility of the support. The advantage of having such a safety devise is that it’s really easy to use because workers only have to hook their lanyard or retracting line in a snap to the support and don’t have to come loose every time they have to move. For this reason, this type of equipment has become mandatory on most work sites at heights in the province of Quebec.

You can also find on the market some permanent horizontal anchorage systems for the structures frequently climbed on. That type of equipment is at a much higher price and must be approved by an engineer. It is however possible to find such a device; all that’s needed is to contact our customer service.
