Horizontal Lifeline Systems, Engineered for Your Building

Send us your roof plan or a few site photos. A Tractel engineer reviews the structure and returns a system layout with anchor locations, span calculations and a budget range.

  • Engineered to OSHA 1910 and ANSI Z359 requirements
  • Permanent and temporary systems for roofs, bridges, rail and industrial structures
  • Tractel has manufactured height safety equipment since 1941

What we send back

A System Layout, Not a Sales Call

System Layout Drawing

Anchor point locations, cable runs and span distances marked on your plan.

Load and Span Calculations

Engineered numbers for your structure, not a generic spec sheet.

Budget Range

A realistic installed cost range so you can plan the project before you commit.

No obligation. If a lifeline is the wrong solution for your site, we will tell you that and point you to what is right.

Solutions

Four Ways to Protect a Walking Surface at Height

Permanent Roof Lifelines

Fixed cable systems for maintenance access on flat and low-slope commercial roofs. Designed to stay in place for the life of the building.

Temporary and Portable Lifelines

Deployable systems for short-duration work where a permanent install is not warranted. Set up and removed by the crew.

Rigid Rail Systems
