What are Horizontal Cable Fall Protection Systems?
Horizontal lifelines are commonly utilized arrest and fall restraint systems used on tall structures to prevent serious accidents and injuries. They’re the perfect solution for situations where there are no existing anchor points for personnel tie-off. The system consists of two or more anchor points at the main structure, to which a cable is attached at one end. At the other end, the cable is connected to the body harness or belt. This is what prevents an individual from falling from a great height in case they misstep or fall, as the fall is arrested by the lifeline and lanyard. Read More
