Keeping window washers safe starts with dependable anchor systems.
At Shine On Anchors, we specialize in OSHA-compliant anchor point installations that support safe, effective high-rise window cleaning. Whether you’re managing a commercial tower in downtown Chicago or a mid-rise in the suburbs, proper anchorage is essential for legal compliance and worker safety.
Why Anchors Matter for Window Cleaning
High-rise window cleaning crews depend on reliable anchors to stay securely attached while working on suspended platforms or rope access systems. OSHA 1910.27 and ANSI Z359.18 require building owners to provide certified fall protection systems — and anchor points are a critical part of that.
Poorly installed or uncertified anchor systems can lead to serious injury, liability, and fines. That’s why Shine On Anchors uses industry best practices and third-party certification on every installation.
Our Process for Installing Anchor Systems
We follow a proven process for anchor installation:
- Assessment – Site inspection to evaluate rooftop layout and anchor needs.
- Design – Engineering drawings customized to your structure.
- Installation – Bolted or adhesive-mounted systems by trained rope access techs.
- Certification – Third-party load testing and compliance reports.
We only install anchors that meet ANSI Z359.18 standards, including single-point anchors, davit systems, and horizontal lifelines depending on building needs.
Benefits of a Certified Anchor System
- Keeps window cleaning crews safe
- Avoids OSHA citations and liability
- Enables suspended access or rope access work
- Extends the longevity of your façade through proper maintenance
