Fall Protection Lanyards

Fall Protection Lanyards

Fall protection lanyards come in a range of styles, all with slightly different applications that they cater to. Some “bungee” style lanyards have shock absorbers built into the length of the lanyard, making them ideal for jobs where a standard lanyard may become tangled. Different hooks can be used by different trades for making a secure connection to fixed anchor points, guide wires, and scaffolding. Tool lanyards are different in many ways as they are designed to stop equipment from falling and hurting those below and are, therefore, substantially different to those that would catch a person's fall.

They come in several different designs and sizes, which we proudly carry on the shelf, ready for fast dispatch directly to your work site or offices.

    Key Fall Protection Lanyard Types

    There are a few key types of fall protection lanyards to choose from; below, we have detailed some of the main categories of lanyard and some of the applications you can use them for.

    Adjustable Fall Restraint Lanyard

    Fall Restraint Lanyards

    These lanyards are designed from the ground up to prevent you from having a fall. Adjustable variants are available if you need to adjust the fall protection lanyard length to prevent you from accidentally straying into a ‘fall danger’ area. These lanyards are used when you are working at height but do not necessarily need to work in a position where you can fall; for example, you may be re-pointing a chimney in the centre of a flat roof with no need to go to the extremities of the rooftop.

    Twin Fall Arrest Lanayrd

    Fall Arrest Lanyards

    These lanyards feature a shock absorber designed to catch you in a controlled manner in the event of a fall. Importantly these shock-absorbing lanyards need ample fall clearance as the shock-absorbing element deploys when placed under a fall load, increasing the fall distance. These fall arrest systems are used where you have to work in an area where a fall is possible. An example use case would be installing new equipment on a telecommunication tower.

    Work Positioning Lanyard

    Work Positioning Lanyards

    These are often used with a fall arrest lanyard or liming block. They allow you to take the weight off your hands whilst working whilst still keeping you in a comfortable working position. A great example use case for these is the phone engineer working up a telegraph pole. These lanyards are almost always adjustable and have a lot of crossover with fall restraint lanyards.

    A Rope And Grab Lanyard

    Rope & Grab Lanyards

    Sometimes referred to as ‘guided type’ lanyards, these generally feature a long rope length with a rope grab that locks when a load is placed across it. These are ideal for workers moving up and down pitched roofs as it allows freedom of movement; whilst still catching a fall should it occur.

    Fall Limiter Block

    Fall Limiter Blocks

    Depending on the application; these retractable lifelines can be installed permanently or temporarily. They are ideal for limiting the free fall distance that an operator may experience. Everyday use cases include positioning the block above vertical access ladders allowing the safe climbing of the ladder. These can be found anywhere from warehouses to offshore oil rigs and manufacturing applications.

    Fall Protection Lanyard Considerations

    Adjustability

    Adjustability

    These adjustable lanyards' fall protection mechanism allows you to adjust the lanyard to the appropriate length for the task at hand. This adjustment ensures you reduce the risk and the associated consequences of using the wrong length of lanyard, which can include being unable to do your job, having a painful accident or, in the worst-case scenario, a fatality.

    Connector Type

    Connection Type

    Whilst making your purchase, ensure that you look at lanyards with appropriate connectors. Consider the anchor points you will frequently need to connect to; for example, a scaffolding hook would be a great choice if you always connect to larger-diameter anchor points.

    Worker With Double Tail Lanyard Climbing A Tower

    Single Or Double

    If you constantly move around a structure or climb ladders, consider double lanyard fall protection with twin tails. These have two connectors, ensuring you can always maintain a secure connection.

    Shock Absorbing Fall Distance Diagram

    Shock Absorbing Lanyard Fall Distance

    If you purchase a lanyard with a shock absorber, ensure you have enough clearance to use it safely. A shock absorber will add considerable extra length to the lanyard once expanded.
