Anchor points are the first of three very important components of an effective fall arrest system. Choosing a suitable anchor point location and mechanism can make the difference between life and death if a dangerous fall was to occur.

How to select the right anchor point

There are a few things you need to consider when selecting the right anchor point:

  • What type of work or activity will the people using the anchor point be doing?
  • How many people will need to use the anchor point?
  • What environment will the anchor point be used in, is there a suitable place to attach it?

Some anchor points are suitable for numerous people to use at once. This is ideal in settings such as public climbing walls or technical training centres. At SafetyLiftinGear, we now stock Lyon ANCHORA Bolt-on Anchor Devices (as seen above) that offer up to five attachment points!

Different Types of Harnesses

A safety harness is one of the main pieces of equipment you'll need when working at height. It enables you to attach yourself to a fixed and secure object via a lanyard ensuring you limit the consequences and severity of a fall. Safety harnesses don't just assure your safety when working at height - they also enable you to work more efficiently and safely, with both hands-free.

Falls from height cause a lot of injuries in UK workplaces, so it's vital that you equip yourself with a safety harness - but which type of harness is right for you?

 

1-point safety harness

1-point harness

1-point harnesses are some of the simplest and most cost-effective harnesses on the market. They are great for working in environments where you need the security of the harness but a good range of movement. With a single attachment at the rear, you can easily connect and disconnect from your safety lanyard as required. We offer a huge range of 1-point safety harnesses for you to choose from. Click the button below to shop.

2-point safety harness

While our 1-point safety harnesses offer adequate security, our 2-point safety harnesses can be worn when you need additional support. Boasting both front and rear attachment points, our 2-point safety harnesses are incredibly versatile and will keep you secure in a wide range of scenarios. All of our 2-point harnesses are incredibly comfortable and can be worn all day with ease.

work positioning harness

Work positioning harness

Work positioning harnesses (also known as sit harnesses) are designed to provide maximum comfort and security when you're working at height for long periods of time. They're favoured by arborists because they provide complete support around the waist and legs while leaving the arms free to work. Many of our work positioning harnesses come with optional shoulder straps. Be sure to check your chosen work positioning harness if this is something that you require.

Safety Lanyards

When working at height, a safety lanyard connects a harness to a secure anchor point, preventing the wearer from falling to the ground.

There are two types of safety lanyard, and it's important to know the difference between them.

Restraint Lanyard vs. Fall Arrest Lanyard

A restraint lanyard is designed to prevent falls by prohibiting the wearer from reaching a hazardous position where a fall might occur. For example, one may wear a safety harness and a restraint lanyard while working on an aerial work platform - the length of the lanyard will have been specifically chosen to keep the wearer safely on the platform.

A fall arrest lanyard must be used in situations where fall hazards cannot be avoided. Fall arrest lanyards have an energy-absorbing element that, in the event of a fall, reduces the impact force exerted on the wearer's body and the anchoring point.

More Information: Fall Arrest vs. Fall Restraint

What Are Safety Lanyards Made Of?

Restraint lanyards (which, remember, are intended to stop people reaching a position where a fall could occur) are typically made of kernmantle rope. Our kernmantle rope lanyards have a minimum breaking strength of 22kN.

We can also supply lanyards with elasticated webbing to help reduce possible trip/snagging hazards.

Both types of lanyard can be purchased from SafetyLiftinGear's Lanyards department.

Connectors

A safety lanyard may be supplied with a variety of different connectors, including:

  • Screw gate karabiner
  • Automatic locking gate
  • Scaffold hook
  • Thimble eye

Maximum Lifespan

The G-Force lanyards we sell here at SafetyLiftinGear have a maximum lifespan of 10 years from the date of manufacture (assuming that you use and store the product correctly and subject it to regular, thorough examinations). This maximum lifespan should not be exceeded, and the equipment must be removed from service once the 10-year period has elapsed.
