RoofSafe Anchors incorporating Force Management Technology

RoofSafe Anchors with Force Management Technology allow installation of horizontal lifelines and single anchor points on modern, non-fragile roof structures using minimal penetrations or in some cases no penetrations at all.

RoofSafe Anchors are available for fixing to concrete roofs, hollow concrete roofs, metal decking, plywood decking, standing seam roof systems, secret fix roof systems, built up metal profiled and composite roof systems.

Uniline’s technically advanced Force Management Technology permit the use of thin metal roof sheets and other roofing substrates as structural anchors, by limiting the forces that are generated in the event of a fall to less than10kN through a built in energy absorber. What is more they can be fitted from the top of the roof saving installations costs and minimising disruption and intrusion to the building.

The reaction of the anchor re-orientates the load to a more beneficial plane for the roof structure and distributes load through the fixings to ensure the integrity of the roof system is maintained.

The design of the anchor is neat and unobtrusive, limiting the visual impact to the building. Anchors can be colour coated to match the roof finish.

In conjunction with our cable system Uni-8, RoofSafe Anchors with Force Management Technology can support multiple workers for both fall arrest and fall restraint work applications. Detailed information to ensure safe system design and integration is provided by our comprehensive Uniline for Windows software programme.

RoofSafe Anchors with Force Management Technology Key features & Benefits
  • Rigorously tested in conjunction with many major roof manufacturers to understand compatibility and performance limitations, ensuring your system will work to protect your employees when required
  • Meets current international product standards, tested in accordance with EN795 and CE Marked to the PPE Directive
  • All supporting documentation available, including user instruction manual in various languages
  • Anchors manufactured from quality materials that ensure durability and performance over a life of 25 years in normal circumstances, thereby reducing cost of ownership
  • Discrete and aesthetically pleasing design to reduce impact on your project, building or structure
  • Built in energy absorbers and load re-orientating design reduces structural loading and increases products ability to adapt to the building or structures tolerances, at all points of the roof
  • Detailed technical back up and support to ensure safe integration with your project
  • Can be fitted to a wide range of roof structures enabling installations in a variety of scenarios. This increases the potential for solving height safety issues without the need for major penetrations to the building fabric

RoofSafe Anchors for PVC membrane roof systems

Anchors are constructed from mild steel and have a protective corrosion resistant coating. In addition, the base plates are coated with an approved PVC solution to enable the roofing contractor to directly weld the PVC roof membrane to them. An approved PVC Top Hat is also supplied. The top hat can in turn, be welded to the roof membrane to provide a neat and secure waterproofing detail.
