Fallguard has been used to provide complete fall protection for personnel in many different applications and environments. Typical uses range from maintenance access for telecommunications structures, electricity pylons, railway signals, towers and silos to roof access systems on extremely high commercial and industrial buildings.
Manufactured and tested in accordance with EN353-1, Fallguard has been developed to provide the ultimate enclosed track vertical fall arrest system.
Unlike other enclosed track systems, Fallguard has a unique asymmetrical track profile, which coupled with it's retaining carriage ensures correct orientation during insertion every time, without the need of additional bolt on guides.
With the Fallguard system, not only can the user travel in a vertical direction utilising the turntable section, the user may move into an adjoining horizontal profile without disconnecting from the safety of the system.
The Fallguard system incorporates notches within the track profile, which enables the retaining carriage to 'lock off' should a fall occur.

The retaining carriage is the travelling link between the Fallguard system and the user. Trouble free, this is also extremely simple to use and has been designed as small and lightweight as possible.
Fallguard has also been used for specialist applications such as confined space installations for water utility companies and industrial chimney installations for steeplejack access.
