"DIY restoration of a historic mansion in NY:
Bryton: "I had a great experience working with Ronny at SLATOR-USA. He went above and beyond throughout the whole process, not only making the anchors, but also taking the time to provide video instructions and walk me through the installation. Any time I had a question, he was helpful, knowledgeable, and generous with advice. It's rare to find someone who stands behind their product that much and actually cares about making sure it gets installed correctly. I'd absolutely recommend Ronny and SLATOR-USA to anyone who needs quality slate roof anchor solutions. I love the anchors and can't wait to swing off them!"

Martha's Vineyard client: "Slator and Petzl changed my game. I actually feel safe at work."
SOUTH CAROLINA
From Beau in SC:
I installed Slater USA's permanent roof anchor system on my house and couldn't be happier with it. The anchors look great, they're extremely strong, and they feel rock-solid. You can tell right away these are high-quality. There's nothing cheap or flimsy about them and they have an aesthetic that seamlessly blends in with the house; you wouldn't know they're there (guests to our house WILL know that they're there because I like pointing them out to folks).
The whole experience was top-notch, and Ronny was incredibly helpful throughout. He took the time to coach me through fall protection and train me up properly—including pointing out that because I have a hip roof, ridge anchors alone wouldn't be sufficient and could still leave me at risk, thus the need for hip anchors as well. Our house also has a combination of conventional and timber-framed construction, and Ronnie was able to adapt the system to meet the needs of both. Ronnie has an excellent blend of real-world pragmatism and understanding of engineering so that solutions work as intended and can actually be installed in the field. That kind of expertise made all the difference.
Ronny is easy to talk to, work with and I never felt like I was being "sold" at any point (not that I care, I wanted the anchors!). Ronnie also genuinely cares about folks being safe. I found it meaningful that his passion for safety on roofs began with his daughter working alongside him. Having a daughter myself I can appreciate the level of safety, robustness and thought that has gone into the anchors, climbing system, and the overall package Ronny offers.
This was not a line item in our budget from the start of our build, but I consider it one of the highest value add items we have in the house.
I also love knowing I've got a well-thought-out solution permanently in place. If or when I hire contractors down the road, for reroofing, gutter work, whatever it may be, they already have safe, secure rigging points to tie into. I'm not leaving their safety up to their best guess as to how to anchor themselves. I know there are proper anchor points on my roof, and there's no reason anyone can't maintain safety on my site.
The high quality of this system matches the level of care and attention we're putting into our own home. I'm proud to show off these anchors, and I'm glad I bought the system. Thanks to it, I was able to safely do the roofing work on my own project that I never would have been able to tackle otherwise. 10/10, highly recommended.

PENNSYLVANIA
The homeowner added wood (2x6's) for lateral bracing so the structure can also resist a 5,000 pound load parallel to the ridge.
He installed (4) V-18's permanent life safety anchors and will now replace his old asphalt shingle roof safely.
