Rooftop Safety Lifeline System

KeeLine safety lifeline system can be used as a fall restraint and fall arrest safety solution and designed specifically for your working environment. When collective protection is not possible, or a virtually invisible solutions is needed, our wire based system is ideal for hands free working at height.

Mansafe Systems Frequently Asked Questions

1. What are mansafe systems and when are they required?

Mansafe systems are safety systems designed to protect personnel working on roofs or elevated structures where a fall hazard is present. They are typically used when collective protection is not possible and workers need safe access to carry out maintenance, cleaning or repairs. Mansafe systems help reduce workplace fatalities by providing controlled fall protection in environments where height risks remain.

2. How do cable based mansafe systems work?

Cable based systems use a horizontal lifeline installed along a roof or structure. Users connect to the cable using personal protective equipment such as a safety harness and lanyard. The system allows workers to move along the roof while remaining protected in the event of a fall. These systems can be configured for both fall restraint and fall arrest depending on the risk assessment.

3. Are mansafe systems suitable for different roof types?

Yes. Mansafe systems can be installed on major roof types including flat roofs, metal profile roofs and membrane roofs. The system design takes the roof structure and roof membrane into account to ensure safe installation without compromising the building. This makes them suitable for both new builds and retrofit projects.

4. What happens in the event of a fall?

In the event of a fall, the system components such as constant force posts and energy absorbing devices activate to limit the forces applied to the user and the structure. This controlled response helps protect workers and reduces the risk of serious injury. A rescue plan should always be in place as part of a compliant fall protection approach.

5. Do mansafe systems require regular inspection?

Yes. All mansafe systems must be inspected at regular intervals to remain compliant and reliable. Inspection ensures that anchor points, cables, fixings and other components are in safe working condition. This is essential for protecting users and maintaining a safe working environment.

6. Can mansafe systems be used for short term or ongoing projects?

Mansafe systems are suitable for both short term projects and long term operations. They are commonly used where repeated access is required for maintenance, cleaning or inspection. Their practical design supports efficiency and productivity while maintaining safety across ongoing building operations.
