New this year and already specified on several large projects,
our patent pending V-18 permanent ridge anchor solves many industry problems.
our patent pending V-18 permanent ridge anchor solves many industry problems.
Features:
1. Rated for 5,000 pounds in any direction (with rafter blocking added).
2. Vertically adjustable to be compatible with all ridge styles.
3. For metal, asphalt shingle, slate, tile and synthetic roofs.
4. For vented and unvented ridges.
5. For wood rafters, 2 x 4 truss systems and steel rafters.
6. Requires zero maintenance and is completely inspectable from the safety of the attic.
7. Durable 17-4 hardened stainless steel. No welds or moving parts.
8. Discreet low profile.
9. Designed to be used/loaded without deformation or damaging the ridge.
10. Allows workers to have their anchor in sight and work either side of the roof.

Craftsmen: Grow old in the career you love. Anchor in every job. One fall from any height can ruin your career, or worse.
Specify permanent anchors to be installed during renovations, maintenance, and designed into new construction projects.
Building/Home Owners: Your building/roof requires maintenance.
What are the consequences of an injury or fatality on your property?
It depends on who fell (owner, employee, subcontractor, other), why they fell, how badly they were hurt, and perhaps how deep your pockets seem. It's never good and completely preventable.
Is it reasonable to expect each worker to be an expert in fall protection and install their own anchor points on your building?
No. Fall Protection evaluation and installation is a hybrid of engineering, construction and climbing talents. Fall protection, "Lack of training." is one of the most frequent OSHA citations. OSHA requires fall protection anytime a potential fall hazard is greater than six feet.
What will the worker do to your roof if they install a temporary anchor point instead of using a pre-planned permanent anchor?
OSHA's general anchor point requirement is that the anchor must successfully resist a 5,000 pound load per worker attached.
It takes extensive construction knowledge, and a unique skill set to install anchors properly, and much more skill and gear to maintain safety while installing the anchor point. Every penetration in a roof, every new hole ... is another potential leak point. Even skilled roofers do not want to put additional holes in a roof. Metal roofs are particularly hazardous. The panels are not rated for the loads required to meet OSHA's standards. The clips and fasteners holding the panels are uninspectable and temporary standing seam anchors for metal roofs easily damage the roof and don't resist potential side loads.
Will the workers go without fall protection entirely or install and use a temporary anchor improperly?
Unfortunately, this is likely. Falls off roofs remain a leading cause of death and injury in the workplace.
Be proactive. Avoid unnecessary trouble and help each worker have safe working conditions.
