Columbia Fall Protection Solutions

Providing a safe mean of access to work areas at height is usually the first step in protecting employees who work at height. Our modular access system designs add versatility and reduce installation time. Access solutions include industrial catwalks, rooftop walkways, walkways with integrated guardrails, rooftop crossover platforms, self closing gates, custom work platforms, and railcar and truck permanent access platforms.

In any active fall protection system, careful consideration must be taken in determining a suitable anchorage point for tying off. Flexible Lifeline Systems offers anchor point solutions to meet a range of needs and budgets. All Flexible Lifeline System anchors exceed the industry standard requirements.

Not every problem can be solved with parts from a catalog. Developing custom fall protection solutions involves a high level of ingenuity supported by talented engineers, designers, fabricators, and installation technicians. The Flexible Lifeline Systems team has over 20 years of experience providing site-specific solutions to address the most challenging fall protection needs.

Our rooftop guardrail system integrates with existing ladders, equipment, and obstructions and provide durable OSHA and ANSI compliant fall protection for all standard rooftops including Membrane, Metal Profile, and Standing Seam up to 45°. Our handrail systems ensure commercial and public buildings satisfy Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements.

FLS Cable based horizontal lifeline systems provide a safe means of tie off for workers in a variety of applications. With spans up to 180’ and supporting multiple users, FLS Cable lifelines provide an economical and efficient solution for workers at height. Whether designed for an overhead application, such as an aircraft hangar, or at foot level on a roof, a properly engineered FLS Cable lifeline ensures the safety of employees and workers exposed to falls.

Flexible Lifeline Systems offers a wide range of portable, versatile, and reliable fall arrest solutions for unique work environments. From simple freestanding single point anchors to remote controlled, drivable and height adjustable solutions, we have a portable fall protection solution for nearly every fall hazard imaginable.

One of the most common fall arrest solutions, our rigid rail systems provide fall arrest solutions in environments that require very short arrest distances. If a worker should fall while properly utilizing the system, the rigid lifeline setup will arrest the fall in a much shorter distance than similar lifeline products. This makes rigid lifelines ideal for applications such as aircraft maintenance, where a fall from a wing needs to be arrested in a short distance.

Unprotected skylights and roof hatches pose a significant fall risk and are one of the most common cause of falling accident from roofs in general industry. In fact, even when they are closed, skylights and roof hatches are so dangerous, that OSHA considers them “holes”. Our skylight fall protection systems, hatch kits and skylight railing solutions provide compliant protection to keep roof workers safe and help avoid accidental falls. They are offered in galvanized and stainless steel versions and are designed to last the lifespan of your skylight.
