Pick Module Fall Arrest System
Our aluminum safety rail system is designed and engineered specifically for people working at, or near, the leading edge on Industrial Pic-Module applications. This system is an improvement over past cable systems. The aluminum rail 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. End of run support structures typically will not require any additional modifications or support. The lightweight modular design allows for fast, easy installation by our trained and certified installation team. The simple and versatile U-Bolt design easily adapts to all types of racking and allows for simple height adjustments without drilling or modifying the rack frames.
The system utilizes a smooth, lightweight aluminum trolley that runs smoothly along the entire run. The trolley allows 100% tie-off for the worker from one end of the module to the opposite end and allows complete, hands-free worker safety when they are entering a bay to retrieve a product from a pallet (thereby putting themselves at a potential risk of fall).
These systems help you to be in Compliance when your workers are exposed to working near the leading edge of a mezzanine. User-friendly and simple.

- (a) from a structure or on a vehicle at a height of 3 m or more;
- (b) from a ladder at a height of 3 m or more if, because of the nature of the work, the person performing it is unable to use at least one hand to hold onto the ladder; or
- (c) at a height of less than 3 m if the surface onto which the person might fall would present a greater risk of injury than a solid, flat surface.

TYPES OF FALL PROTECTION
Hazard Elimination
Changing the work process so the hazard no longer exists (e.g., building a roof on the ground and hoisting it into place)
Guardrails, Protective Covers, and Warning Barriers
Prevents a fall from unprotected edges or openings at heights.
Travel Restraint System
Allows a worker to reach the edge of a fall hazard but not fall over it.
Fall Restricting System
Designed to limit a fall distance to 0.6 m (2 ft).
Fall Arrest System
Designed to stop the fall of a worker before they hit the ground or objects below.
Safety Net
Designed to catch a falling worker before they hit the ground or objects below.
Passive Vs Active Fall Protection
When a hazard assessment is completed, and a need for fall protection is established, there are two general types of systems that can solve the need and keep the workers safe, passive or active fall protection.
Passive Fall Protection
A “passive” fall protection system refers to a system that is non-dynamic, stationary, and does not move or adapt or change when in or out of use. They do not require the use of Personal Protective Equipment or active participation from the worker. Typical passive solutions include Guardrails or Netting Systems. This is the preferred choice for its ease of use without the need for additional training and PPE.
Active Fall Protection
An “active” Fall Protection System requires the use of special equipment and participation by the worker. There are two types of Active Fall Protection Systems, fall restraint and fall arrest systems. These systems share the common feature of securing the worker wearing a full-body harness to an anchorage point with some type of connecting system, depending on the application. Active Fall Protection Systems include Fall Arrest Anchors, Roof Anchors, and Safety Harness’.
