System Overview and Components

The GlideLoc Vertical Height Access Ladder System consists of a vertical rail that attaches to a ladder. The system includes an end-stop at the top and bottom of the rail, and rung clamps to secure the rail to the ladder rungs. A fall arrester is used by the worker to connect to the system, allowing for safe vertical ascent and descent.

Diagram Description: A vertical rail system is shown attached to a ladder. It includes an end-stop at the top and bottom. Rung clamps secure the rail to the ladder rungs. A fall arrester is depicted moving along the rail. The vertical rail is labeled as available in Aluminum, Galvanized, or Stainless Steel.

Key Feature: Integrated Shock-Absorbing Element.

Systems can be customized with additional components, including:

• Brackets for larger ladder rungs
• Brackets to attach to ladder side rails
• Foldable foot rests for long ladders
• Shaft entry device to provide easy access to manholes and roof hatches

Note: A minimum of four (4) rung clamps are required for each system.

GlideLoc® Fall Arresters

All GlideLoc Fall Arresters lock immediately into the rail in the event of a fall. All models offer:

• Smooth, quiet trailing action along the rail, providing an easier, more comfortable climb.
• Automatic design, keeping both hands free for climbing.
• Stainless steel catch clamp that locks into the rail during a fall.
• Integrated shock-absorbing mechanism that reduces force on the worker and system during a fall.
• Fall indicator that alerts the user when to remove the product from service.
• Integrated swivel, auto-locking carabiner connection that aids in trailing alignment and meets allowable attachment length.
• Design prevents upside-down installation, increasing worker safety by ensuring proper attachment.
• No requirement to lean back while climbing, reducing fatigue; ideal for ladder cages and confined spaces.
• Ergonomically designed for easy one-hand installation, increasing productivity.

Body Control I Fall Arrester

This arrester attaches at the top or bottom of the rail. It offers all the general features listed above. Its smooth, quiet trailing action is delivered by 10 glide rollers, providing an easier, more comfortable climb. Outside roller guides are protected by a flexible rubber ring for a longer service life. It is constructed of stainless steel and aluminum, holding up well in corrosive environments.

Universal II GlideLoc Fall Arrester

This arrester attaches anywhere on the rail. It is designed to be installed and removed from the rail anywhere along the system, enabling transfer onto platforms and entry onto systems where the ladder is submerged in snow. It features a click-lock function to ensure proper installation and does not require intermediate entry/exit gates. The body is constructed of stainless steel, holding up well in corrosive environments.
