Anchor Point Applications

Window Washing

Window Washing

A permanent and reliable roof top anchor point is often needed to allow workers to safely perform regular cleaning and washing duties for your building’s facade. A workflow-specific product, such as a roof top anchor point, is best suited to keep you workforce safe during these hazardous operations.

Building Maintenance

Building Maintenance

We consult with owners and managers who are concerned the existing facade access equipment on their building is out of compliance or in need of certification. Along with a team of engineers, designers, project managers, service technicians, FLS provides solutions to keep HVAC and other serviceman safe during their workflow.

Speak With a Fall Protection Specialist

The important considerations for single anchorage points are as follows:

  • Does the anchor point provide full and safe access in the work area? Anchor points can often unknowingly be misused. Going too far away from the anchor point and creating dangerous swing fall situations must be avoided.
  • Is the anchor in a place that allows for sufficient fall distance to arrest or prevent the fall? An overhead anchor point is typically preferred over a foot level anchor point to minimize fall distances.
  • Is the anchor point going to be used for suspended access or window washing? If so, there are special strength requirements for these types of anchors that may exceed a standard fall arresting anchor point.
  • Is the structure the anchor point is attached to capable of supporting the required loads? Improvised or non-certified anchors must be able to withstand 5,000 lbs. FLS Certified anchors points are typically engineered to much lower load requirement, allowing the use of anchor points on structures that ordinarily might be insufficient.
  • How do I access an anchor point safely? Getting to a tie off point safely is just as important as doing the work safely. Evaluating the work path to ensure and ensuring that the user can tie off safely before being exposed to the fall hazard is essential. Sometimes this may require the use of taglines or other devices that allow the user to tie off before climbing or accessing the fall hazard area.
  • Who is qualified to design a certified anchor point system? A qualified person, typically a structural engineer with experience in the design of fall protection systems, should be the only person designing certified anchorage points.
