    A Horzontal Rope Lifeline, Seriously?

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Let’s take a look at an often overlooked fall protection product, the Horizontal Rope Lifeline.  It’s a shame though, because a horizontal rope lifeline is just as safe as a cable lifeline, but can shed almost $400 off the cost.

    With that in mind, we’re taking a look at Guardian’s Horizontal Rope Lifeline Kit.

    Now, let’s talk some features to get any fall protection nerd excited.  For example, this kit includes 100 ft. of rope.  That’s a pretty long rope in a situation where size does indeed matter.

    The kit also includes all of the required accoutrements you need to make a fully functioning lifeline system, even a rope tensioner to make sure the limp rope stays taught.  Pretty darn fancy eh?

    And for those of you that still think that cable is better, this rope lifeline system accommodates a two worker system.

    And a carrying case!

    Okay, the carrying case isn’t that big of a deal, but it’s still nice.  Trying to carry 100 feet of rope can be… um… tricky.

    Hopefully, you’ve been awoken to the hidden potentials of a horizontal rope lifeline, including the awesome cost savings.  So, please at least give a look at Guardian’s Horizontal Rope Lifeline System.

    You can also check out some more lifeline kits if you’d like.   For our full collection…

    Come on people give rope another chance!  And let us now about your experiences working with rope lifelines…
