We Know Fall Protection

At Height Works Ltd., we specialize in engineered fall protection solutions designed to keep workers safe while operating at heights. Whether you’re in construction, oil & gas, aviation, rail, or industrial facilities, ensuring fall arrest compliance is crucial to workplace safety. One of the most effective fall protection systems available today is the Self-Retracting Lifeline (SRL)—a key component in height safety solutions that provides instant fall arrest and enhanced mobility.

“At Height Works Ltd., our mission is clear: to protect workers at heights with cutting-edge solutions like self-retracting lifelines, that not only protect lives but empower workers with the confidence to excel at any height.” Joel Morice, President of Height Works Ltd. 

What Are Self-Retracting Lifelines?

A Self-Retracting Lifeline (SRL)—also known as a fall limiter or retractable lanyard—is a fall arrest system that automatically extends and retracts as the worker moves. Unlike traditional shock-absorbing lanyards, which require a certain amount of free-fall distance before engaging, SRLs limit free fall distances, significantly reducing the risk of injury.

These retractable fall protection devices are widely used in industries where workers require freedom of movement, but also need immediate fall arrest capability. They are ideal for work on fixed ladders, scaffolding, elevated platforms, rooftops, and confined spaces.

How a Self-Retracting Lifeline Works to Protect You from Falls

SRLs function using a spring-loaded system that keeps the lifeline under tension. The mechanism automatically locks when a sudden acceleration—such as a fall—is detected, stopping the worker from falling further. Key components of an SRL system include:

✅ Durable Lifeline Materials: Made from heavy-duty Nylon webbing or galvanized or stainless steel cable for long-term use.

✅ Self-Locking Mechanism: Instantly arrests falls, reducing impact forces.

✅ Shock Absorption Technology: Minimizes stress on the worker’s body in the event of a fall.

✅ Swivel Snap Hooks & Carabiners: Prevent twisting and ensure secure attachment to fall protection anchors.

✅ Lightweight & Portable Designs: Available in compact, single-leg, and dual-leg configurations for greater flexibility.

These features make Self-Retracting Lifelines an essential tool for fall arrest systems, ensuring worker safety, compliance, and efficiency across industries.
