Vertical lifelines: common questions
ANSWERS YOU CAN CITE
01How long a lifeline do I need?
Measure from the anchor to the eave along the slope and add enough to reach your lowest working point. Do not let extra rope hang where it can snag.
02Can two workers share one vertical lifeline?
No. Each worker needs their own lifeline and anchor point unless the maker's instructions say otherwise.
03Will any rope grab work on any rope?
No. Use only the rope diameter and type the rope grab is rated for.
04Are these lifelines CSA certified?
Each product page states its actual rating. Safety Direct and FallTech list CSA Z259 where the maker certifies it; Frontline and Malta Dynamics products are ANSI/OSHA rated, not CSA. Match the rating to your provincial rules, or call 437-475-2066.
