Solution:  Horizontal lifeline along roof edge (★★★★)

In the summertime, temperatures inside this school building used to rise significantly, much to the discomfort of the children in the sports hall. To deal with this, the client ordered heat-resistant roofing material.

This led the board of the school to review the fall hazards on the roof and to opt for a permanent safety solution to protect the maintenance workers who have to work there. After the new roofing material was applied, SkySafe installed a total of 54 meters of XSLinked horizontal lifeline for anchorage.

The XSLinked lifeline is placed around the perimeter of the roof, at 2 meters from the roof edge. This way, workers can safely access all areas where fall hazards exist.
