Horizontal Lifelines

  • Ideal for work areas without existing anchor points, our horizontal lifelines provide continuous, secure fall protection across rooftops, beams, or walkways.
  • Engineered cable mounted between two or more anchor points, with tensioning systems and intermediate supports to handle dynamic loads.
  • Supports multiple users and minimizes need for workers to disconnect & reconnect while moving across.
  • Designed to limit fall forces, reduce sag, and mitigate swing fall hazards.
  • Compatible with travel restraint or fall arrest modes.
Horizontal lifeline
Vertical lifelines

Vertical Lifelines

  • Provides unlimited up/down mobility while staying connected — no manual re-anchoring required mid-ascent or descent.
  • Seamless vertical tie-off system with rope grabs or guided devices ensures continuous protection.
  • Often paired with self-retracting lifelines or fall arrest devices to limit free fall distance.
  • Typically used along fixed ladders, towers, silos, or vertical shafts.
  • Designed per CSA / ANSI / applicable standards to ensure load capacity and dynamic response during a fall.

Temporary Horizontal Lifelines

  • Portable cable lifeline systems ideal for short-term access, maintenance, or infrequent work zones.
  • Rapid deployment and removal without permanent structural modifications.
  • Modular and reconfigurable: spans, tensioners, bases, and supports scale to your layout.
  • Common in construction zones, maintenance patches, or jobs where permanent installation is not practical.
  • Engineered for safety even in temporary use — includes energy absorbers, tension indicators, and clear user capacity ratings.
Temporary horizontal lifelines
Confined space lifelines

Confined Space Lifelines

  • Tailored lifeline systems for vertical or limited-access spaces (e.g. tanks, vaults, manholes), where entry/exit is constrained.
  • Incorporates winch or davit systems for rescue/emergency retrieval as needed.
  • Designed with compliance in mind: meets OSHA / CSA requirements for confined space entry & fall protection.
  • Uses rope, cable, or guided devices rated for fall arrest or rescue loads.
  • Ensures that when workers are inside, they remain continuously protected and retrievable.

PROJECTS

Custom long span lifeline at a hydro dam in use | custom fall protection

Custom Long Span Lifeline at a Hydro Dam

Among our many lifeline projects was a long span lifeline for a hydro dam. Due to the potential for large debris (trees, ice jams) during high-water events, no intermediate cable supports could be utilized.

Rail Car Unloading Fall Protection System in use

Rail Car Unloading Fall Protection System

Liftsafe has designed a custom engineered rail car system that provides fall protection for workers loading and unloading railcars. The rail car system provides safe access to the top of a train and moves on a trolley system that allows the operator to open at multiple points on the track.
