Not all HLL systems are created equal.
Cable HLL Systems
Pros:
-
- Flexible installation
- Longer spans
- Lower upfront cost
Cons:
-
- More deflection
- Requires careful clearance calculations
Rail HLL Systems
Pros:
-
- Smooth trolley movement
- Minimal sag
- Ideal for frequent access
Cons:
-
- Higher cost
- Structural mounting required
Choosing the Right System
Consider:
-
- Roof layout
- Frequency of access
- Worker count
- Clearance below
Frequently Asked Questions:
What is the main difference between cable and rail HLL systems?
Cable systems allow longer spans and flexibility, while rail systems provide smoother movement with minimal deflection and are ideal for frequent rooftop access.
Which HLL system is better for frequent maintenance work?
Rail HLL systems are often better for frequent maintenance because they reduce fatigue, allow smoother travel, and minimize fall clearance requirements.
