Experience
- FLS has designed and installed more fall protection
systems in more applications and industries than any other
fall protection system contractor in North America. Every
day, our fall protection systems protect thousands of workers
from injuries or death due to fall hazards. We are heavily
involved in the bulk-loading industry with thousands of
fall protection systems in use at grain facilities, chemical
plants, oil refineries, cement plants, plastic manufacturers
and other bulk-loading and transloading facilities.
Professional Engineers - FLS has Professional Engineers
on staff whose sole purpose is the design of fall protection
systems. They are experienced in the loading characteristics
of fall protection systems and, when systems are attached
to your existing buildings, are capable of analyzing your
structure to ensure that the building is capable of withstanding
the loads imposed upon it by the fall protection systems.
They design innovative, lightweight connection details to
keep costs to a minimum and they are familiar with local
and federal regulations and the OSHA and ANSI standards.

References
and Testimonials
- Ask for references in your area. Since we are a national
fall protection contractor with installations all over the
country, chances are we have a satisfied customer with a
system installed near you. Check out the system, how it
works, look at the quality of the fabrications, the foundations
and ask the customer what he thought about the project from
start to finish.
Life Expectancy
- All of our Flexible Lifeline
Systems have a design life expectancy of 20 years. In that
time the consumables such as retractable lifelines, trolley
wheels and harnesses may have to be replaced but the system
itself will remain unfazed by weather or other environmental
conditions. We have subjected our systems to independent
3rd party testing to include 20 year salt-spray testing,
wind vortex shedding to ensure that the systems are not
only the highest performing systems available but to ensure
that you get the longest lasting fall protection system.
Warranty
- All Flexible Lifeline Systems, regardless of system type
come with a five (5) year warranty against defects in materials
and workmanship. |
