Rigid Rail Protection System for Rope Access & Fall Arrest

Rigid rail system components and mounting details

Rigid rail systems, including abseil and rope access, fall protection or fall arrest, are essential safety measures for projects involving work at heights. These systems are designed to mitigate risks and enhance the safety of workers.

The abseil and rope access systems allow smooth vertical or lateral movement, making them ideal for mobility tasks.

Fall protection systems prevent workers from falling, while fall arrest systems are designed to stop a fall in progress safely. These safety systems are crucial in high-risk environments such as construction sites, high-rise window cleaning, and building maintenance.

Frequently Asked Questions

A rigid rail is a fixed metal track mounted to a structure, with a traveller shuttle that locks to a worker’s harness — it provides continuous fall protection across complex or vertical applications.

Unlike a static line (which uses flexible cable), a rigid rail uses a solid aluminium or steel track that can navigate corners and changes in direction without losing load continuity. It does not deform under load, so may be preferred in specific cases such as: steep roof pitches, abseil, part of a davit system, overhead fall arrest, such as the Osprey Crane System.

Rigid rails can follow complex roof geometries including corners, slopes, and vertical surfaces, and can serve both fall protection and rope access functions — making them the most versatile system available.

Rigid rail systems must comply with AS/NZS 1891.4 and be designed, installed, and certified by a competent person — at Anchored, we’re one of Australia’s leading installers of rigid rail.

Rigid rails are ideal for complex roof structures, high-rise buildings, cranes mouted fall arrest system (Osprey Crane System), multi-level access systems, and anywhere a standard horizontal static line cable cannot follow the required path.

Yes — rigid rail systems are specifically designed to work on vertical surfaces like crane masts and building facades, providing continuous protection during climbing as well as horizontal travel. This is a specific type of rigid rail. There are possibilities where we can design a continuous rail that may move from horizontal to vertical to horizontal again.
