Well-designed fall protection reduces risks

Safe movement and working at heights starts with proper design. In new buildings, the design of fall protection is usually the responsibility of an architect or structural engineer. The design of fall protection must take into account, among other things, the structure, height and slope of the roof and the equipments located on the roof. When planning the placement of roof anchor points, the intended use of the anchor points and the size and shape of the building, roof and facade must be also taken into account.

The most recommended way to implement fall protection is a lifeline system that covers the entire roof, along which the number releases from lifeline system are kept to a minimum. In addition to the lifeline system, individual roof anchor points can be used in necessary places, such as at the entrances and exits and in the corners of the roofs. Roof safety products must withstand the load required for maintenance and repair work, in all weather conditions. 

Properly dimensioned and selected roof safety products, taking into account the requirements of the property, guarantee a durable and safe fall protection solution that facilitates and speeds up roof maintenance and repair work.
