Engineered Fall Protection Systems
Liftsafe Fall Protection (LFP) has an in-house engineering team that consults with clients to develop customized fall protection systems for unique applications that require it. Custom Engineered Fall Protection Solutions can be used for a wide range of applications that can be separated into two different categories. Active and Passive. Passive systems like RoofGuard or Flatbed Truck Netting require no participation or specialized training from an employee. Active systems will require any combination of harnesses, lanyards and up to date training from your employees in order to meet the requirements outlined by the government.
Products
Aviation Engineered Solutions
At Liftsafe Fall Protection we have access to a full in-house engineering, design, and fabrication team. We specialize in Aviation and Aerospace Engineered Solutions.
Cable Based Lifeline Systems
Liftsafe Fall Protection cable based lifelines come in a variety of options and can easily be installed in numerous workplace environments. Consider our cable based lifeline system to improve your facility’s safety.
Rigid Rail Fall Arrest Systems
Rigid systems come in two forms, trolley systems which utilize existing overhead I-Beams and rigid track or rigid rail fall arrest systems. Systems feature an enclosed track with a self-retracting lifeline for continuous tie-off.
Pick Module Fall Arrest System
The Pick Module Fall Arrest system is seamless which makes for smoother transitions for the operator as they navigate along the length of the rail. No end loading ensures easier engineering and installation.
Anchor Points
Liftsafe Fall Protection offers a range of legally compliant anchor point systems to help you and your workers meet the needs of different industries and working environments.
Mobile Fall Protection Systems
Standard and custom mobile fall protection systems that can be adapted for multiple applications. For use when maintaining aircraft, railroad cars, industrial equipment, or heavy machinery.

Our Process
Phase 1: Design
Simply put, every project is unique. In this phase we will apply a collaborative and consultative approach to define the requirements, to evaluate your needs, and to discuss all possible solutions.
Phase 2: Safety
Our defining philosophy; “safety in the air, starts on the ground”, highlights our core focus of keeping our clients and their teams safe. When developing a solution, our team is committed to providing solutions that incorporate hazard elimination and passive protection into all of our designs.
Phase 3: Compliance
The aviation sector is one of the most heavily regulated industries in the world. Our staff engineers are up to date on the latest safety regulations and ensure that each piece of equipment meets or exceeds safety compliance standards.
Phase 4: Implement
Launching your project with a phased approach that includes manufacturing, commissioning, revisions and training. Each aircraft maintenance project is subjected to the rigors of real world use and adjusted accordingly until it meets all design criteria. Training on best practices and product use is provided.
Phase 5: Support
Once an aircraft maintenance platform makes it from the design studio into the real world, it is subject to real world conditions and usage. That is why LFP offers an ongoing preventative maintenance and service plan to guarantee easy operation and ongoing customer service years after construction.

3 Steps To Fall Protection Compliance
1. EVALUATE YOUR FALL PROTECTION NEEDS:
- Plan ahead to get the job done safely.
- Assess areas on your rooftop that require access.
2. ASSESS THE RISKS:
- Are my employees or contractors at risk of a fall?
- Am I exposing my company to unnecessary fines?
3. IMPLEMENT A SOLUTION:
- Provide the right fall protection equipment.
When is fall protection required?
Most jurisdictions require the use of specific fall protection measures before, or in addition to, personal protective equipment (PPE). These measures generally include the use of some of the following:
- fixed barriers (e.g., handrails, guardrails),
- surface opening protection (e.g., covers, guardrails, etc.),
- warning barriers/control zones,
- fall or travel restraint systems (i.e., a system to prevent a worker from falling from a work position, or from travelling to an unguarded edge from which the worker could fall),
- fall containment system (e.g., safety nets),
- fall arrest systems (i.e., a system that will stop a worker’s fall before the worker hits the surface below).
There may also be specific legal requirements around use of equipment like ladders and scaffolding.
Occupational health and safety laws generally require action when a worker has the potential to fall about 3 metres (10 feet). In most cases, fall protection is required when:
- other means of fall protection are not available or possible, such as guardrails,
- working at a height of 3 metres or more (permanent and/or temporary work areas),
- working at a height of less than 3 metres when the surface below could cause a greater injury than just the fall (e.g., machinery; risk of drowning in water or other liquid; open tanks, vats, or pits containing hazardous materials; materials that can shift),
- a worker may fall through an opening in the work surface,
- it is determined that fall protection is necessary.
More information on fall protection can be found at the Canadian Centre for Occupational Health and Safety.
What our clients are saying
We use them in both the line maintenance and hangar maintenance to accomplish work on the engine and pylons for our wide-body aircraft. These stands are an excellent solution to a longstanding problem - providing fall safety protection in difficult to reach areas. The stands are of high-quality construction and provide a unique solution to a challenging fall safety concern. We would highly recommend this product.
The horizontal lifeline system is user-friendly and provides the additional security for workers that we hoped it would. Those who use it have provided positive feedback. We look forward to working with Liftsafe on future projects.
We would highly recommend this product to any company completing regular maintenance on commercial aircraft engines. We find that Liftsafe is more than willing to work with us in creating safe, economical and multi-purpose designed equipment, tailored to our needs.
