Railcar Fall Protection Systems that Promote Safety and Productivity

We have a proven track record of providing Fall Protection solutions for companies in the food processing, grain, feed, chemical and other industries. Our diverse experience gives us a unique advantage in meeting the challenges of your Railcar Fall Protection application.

Railcar unloading is often outdoors in confined areas. The challenge is finding space to install a Fall Protection System that does not violate the railroad clearance requirements. We meet this challenge by using free standing and building mounted OSHA compliant Fall Arrest anchor points as illustrated below.

Fall Protection Challenge: Employees need to open hatches on top of several railcars positioned over a curved track. There is no existing structure for use as an anchor of the Fall Arrest System.

Fall Protection Solution: Our custom designed freestanding Fall Arrest anchors are used to support long spans of cable horizontal lifelines or rigid rail systems.

Anchor points strategically placed to match contour of rail track using horizontal lifeline.

Fall Arrest Anchor spans over two tracks to provide dual Fall Protection..

Fall Protection Challenge: Railcar is positioned so close to building there is no space to mount a freestanding Fall Arrest anchor point and meet the clearance requirements of the Railroad.
