    Tackling the I-Beam

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

    The I, or H Beam for that matter, can be a pretty tricky obstacle in the world of fall protection. Luckily, there are a lot of solid options out there and I thought we’d highlight a few of the standouts.

    Guardian Beamer 2000 – This classic anchor fits over a horizontal beam and slides with you as you work. It’s extremely versatile and there are wide range of variants on the market.

    French Creek Bolt Hole Girder Anchor – The Bolt Hole Anchor easily fits into pre-drilled holes on beams and works like a charm. Very easy installation.

    Guardian Vertical Beamer – This anchor comes in handy when you don’t have a suitable horizontal anchor to tie off on. The Vertical Beamer clamps onto any vertical or diagonal beam.

    Guardian Beamguard – The Beamguard allows you to create a complete horizontal lifeline system across a length of beam without too much obstruction.

    So there you have it. Check out some of these great products. You never know, one of these may be the answer to all of your prayers.
