FAQs

A guardrail fall prevention system is a passive fall protection solution designed to create a physical barrier around roof edges, elevated work areas, and fall hazards, helping prevent workers from accidentally accessing dangerous areas.

A ladder fall arrest system is a safety system designed to protect workers while climbing fixed vertical ladders by arresting a fall and reducing the risk of serious injury. These systems commonly use a cable lifeline or rigid rail track connected to a worker's harness.
A ladder opening safety gate is a self-closing barrier designed to protect workers from falls at ladder access points, elevated platforms, mezzanines, and rooftop access locations by securing open entryways.
A loading dock safety gate is a fall protection barrier designed to secure open loading dock edges and truck bays, helping prevent workers, pedestrians, and equipment from accidentally falling from elevated dock areas. CAI Safety offers cantilever gate systems specifically designed for loading dock applications.
A mezzanine safety gate is a fall protection system designed to secure openings in mezzanine platforms, loading areas, and elevated workspaces, helping protect workers from falls during material handling and access activities.
A mobile fall protection system is a portable safety solution designed to provide fall protection for workers performing tasks at height without requiring permanent installation. These systems can be moved between work areas as needed.
A pallet self-closing gate is designed to protect mezzanine loading zones by automatically maintaining a protective barrier during pallet transfer operations, helping reduce fall risks.

FAQs

A personal fall arrest system is a combination of equipment including a full-body harness, connecting device, and anchorage designed to safely stop a worker during a fall.

A personal fall arrest system is a combination of equipment including an anchorage, full-body harness, and connecting device designed to safely stop a worker during a fall.
A portable safety ladder is a movable access solution designed to provide safe access to elevated work areas, equipment, platforms, vehicles, and maintenance locations. These ladders can be relocated as needed and often include safety features such as handrails, guardrails, and slip-resistant steps.
A rigid rail system uses a fixed overhead rail and trolley assembly that allows workers to move freely while remaining continuously connected to a fall protection anchorage point.
A roof horizontal lifeline system is a fall protection system that consists of a horizontal cable or rail installed across a roof, allowing workers to remain connected while moving safely across elevated work areas.

FAQs

A roof skylight guard is a protective safety system designed to prevent workers from falling through skylights and roof openings while performing maintenance, inspections, or other rooftop activities. It helps improve workplace safety and supports OSHA fall protection requirements.

A self-retracting lifeline, commonly called an SRL, is a fall-arrest device with a lifeline that extends and retracts as the worker moves. During normal movement, the line remains under light tension. If a fall occurs, an internal braking mechanism locks the lifeline and helps arrest the fall. The SRL must be compatible with the worker's full-body harness, anchorage, work environment, and required fall clearance.
A single opening cantilever gate is designed for smaller loading dock openings and overhead door applications. It opens upward rather than swinging outward, helping preserve valuable floor space while providing fall protection.
A split opening cantilever gate is designed for wider dock openings and larger truck bays. The system provides fall protection while allowing easy access for loading and unloading operations.
An industrial safety gate is a self-closing barrier designed to protect workers from fall hazards at ladder openings, roof hatches, mezzanines, loading areas, and other elevated access points.
An overhead fall protection system is an elevated anchorage solution that allows workers to connect personal fall arrest equipment to a secure overhead structure, helping reduce fall risks while working at height.

FAQs

ANSI (American National Standards Institute) is an organization that develops voluntary consensus standards for workplace safety, including fall protection systems, equipment, training, and safety procedures.

FAQs

ANSI Z359 is a fall protection code that establishes requirements for personal fall arrest systems, subsystems, components, training, rescue planning, and equipment performance.
