Homeowner/client triangulating with 2 lines off V-5 anchors for optimal fall protection at the end of the dormer.

Many ropes, kept taught, multiple colors, and the use of sternal fall arrest rings reduce tangles and make it easier for workers to switch ropes when necessary.

Day 2 of training in the field on a job site.

19 year old Roofing Safety Level 2 and 1 candidates implementing a safe access repair plan they designed. V-1 anchors, tight ropes, sternal fall arrest rings, mobile fall arresters and back up knots to prevent going over the eve.

Moving to and from the ladder is no longer risky, if your fall protection is utilized from the first moment you leave the ground.

V-5 permanent anchor installation training session at an East Coast University. Installation of V-1 temporary anchors to provide initial fall protection for exterior work.
Picture
Continued training session for the V-5 permanent anchor - attic work often requires fall protection as well to prevent falls through the ceiling below.

Slator and sling technique for supporting multiple ladders.
V-1 anchor install with (6) 4" readily available TimberLok fasteners.
Slator and sling technique.
Our stainless steel (copper flashed) access hatch has built in fall protection anchors.
The SLATOR is also an OSHA compliant anchor point.
Rigging the sling and rope this way PRIOR to putting the ladder in the SLATOR provides initial 1st ascent fall protection as "Best practices for work positioning".
Set the ropes on the ladders prior to installing them in the SLATORS.
Staging work successfully and safely.
Planning safe access allows the work to be done speedily, and safely.
70' above ground, we cut the opening and installed this hatch from the attic. Our hatches have built-in anchor points.
Creative sling techniques and a tight rope for safe work positioning.
Using a simple "redirect" and a tight rope to elimimate any freefall and instead only have a small swing.
Petzl's ANSI rated ASAP LOCK and Ray 12mm rope.
OSHA compliant V-1 anchor installs very quickly. Use new fasteners for every installation.
Training your crew: anchor installation, quick dry-ins, sling techniques, rope protects, and knots. Safe. Quick. Compliant.
An understanding of ropes, knots, and pulleys will allow you to safely place heavy objects in challenging locations. Some places are impossible to reach with a crane.

Anchor in.  Live long.​
