Söll GlideLoc Vertical Rail System

The Söll® GlideLoc® Vertical Rail System provide an innovative solution for vertical climbing that is easy-to-use, requires minimal maintenance and provides superior safety. The system is available in aluminum, galvanized or stainless-steel construction.
 
Key Features
Söll GlideLoc fall protection system is available as Guide Rails to retrofit existing ladders or as all-in-one Safety Ladders. Safety ladders have an integrated guide rail for the guided-type fall arrester in the centre.
- Distance between rungs is 280mm. Customized designs may be available.
- Durable construction for extended service life.
- Accommodates multiple workers.
The easy-climb Söll GlideLoc guided type Fall Arrester offers hands-free safety at height that ultimately increases worker mobility, safety and productivity.
- The Guided type Fall Arrester is fixed by the carabiner hook to the D-ring of the full body harness and inserted into the guide rail
- Increased Safety: all GlideLoc Fall Arresters lock immediately into the rail in the event of a fall
- Smooth, quiet trailing action along the rail – Provides an easier, more comfortable climb
- Automatic design – Keeps both hands free for climbing
- Stainless steel catch clamp – Locks into the rail in the event of a fall
- Integrated shock-absorbing mechanism – Reduces force on the worker and system in the event of a fall
- Fall indicator – Alerts user to know when to remove the product from service
- Integrated swivel, auto-locking carabiner connection – Aids in trailing alignment and meets allowable attachment length
- Design prevents up-side-down installation – Increases worker safety by ensuring proper attachment
- No requirement to lean back while climbing – Reduces fatigue and is ideal for ladder cages and confined spaces
- Ergonomically designed for easy one-hand installation – Increases productivity
 
Horizontal access to workplaces at height
Söll GlideLoc guide rails allow a combination of vertical and horizontal access without having to disconnect and reconnect. The system allows safe roof and platform access. The EN 795:2012 compliant GuideLoc anchorage device is based on guide rails and is designed to provide a safe working environment for people working at height such as on roofs. The worker wears a full body harness and uses a lanyard (or another connector compliant with EN 354/ EN 355) to connect to the eye of the shuttle, which travels along the rail. For overhead applications a retractable fall arrester can be used to provide the most effective means of protection.
