Fall Protection Systems: Prevent Height-Related Injuries

jodie Products

As regular visitors to our blog and followers of our social media pages will know, at SafetyLiftinGear we place a particular emphasis on height safety as a priority in working environments. This is due not only to the sheer volume of accidents caused by poor height safety measures on a regular basis, but is also a reflection of the severe and often fatal nature of these incidents. That is why we make it a priority to promote the dangers of unsuitable height safety measures, and promote the responsible use of proper height safety measures and products.

For those who plan on undertaking tasks which involve working at height, be it as one-off project or as a regular element of your business, it is of vital importance that you are properly prepared with the correct fall protection systems. Whether your task involves working on a rooftop, ledge or at the side of a building, our selection of products will act as a failsafe in the event of a worker fall, preventing serious and fatal injuries. For your convenience, many of our safety line systems are also suitable for use by multiple persons at one time, allowing you to adapt the product to the demands of your job and workforce.

While our fall arresters are available to buy or rent for individuals who already have a fall protection system in place, our safety line, anchorage, and edge protection systems are available in a bespoke package upon request. Simply fill-in a price application form, and we will be able to provide you with a competitive price to suit all of your individual needs. For those who require a helping hand with the correct installation of these systems, we also offer a full installation service for many of our fall arrest products, so you can be sure that your new equipment is installed safely and correctly.

New G-Guard Load Arrestors

adam Products

Another day, another exciting addition to our Lifting Equipment range! The SafetyLiftinGear website is now home to a selection of high-quality load arrestors - these robust products are designed to make sure that heavy loads don't fall when being lifted, even if the load's primary support system fails.

How do they work?

Each G-Guard fall arrestor consists of a retractable safety line. If a load drops suddenly whilst attached to this line, the load arrestor's brake will automatically kick in and prevent the load from falling. The brake's shock-absorbent properties minimise the force of the load arrestor and protect the load from damage.

Why should I use a load arrestor?

Back-up measures like these fall arrestors are important in case your lifting equipment suddenly fails while you are raising a heavy load. These safety lines will ensure that your load does not drop to the ground below (where it may cause damage, injury, or even worse).

How strong are SafetyLiftinGear's load arrestors?

We have three different G-Guard load arrestors to choose from, each with its own specifications and weight load limit:

1000kg Load Arrestor (available in 7m, 9m or 10m length)
500kg Load Arrestor (available in 6 different lengths, ranging from 7m to 24m)
300kg Load Arrestor (7 different lengths from 7m to 25m)
