The property owner wanted to ensure that safe access to the entire roof would be possible as it would be required in the future on an ongoing basis to allow for routine maintenance and repair of the roof and related structures. Due to the size and style of the roof, a complex and extensive system would be required. After assessing the options, a horizontal safety line system was selected.

To improve safety performance and deal with certain features of the roof and existing roofing elements, we installed 5 separate man anchor systems, with a total cable length of 650m. The systems were of varying sizes, with the four largers systems being 158m each and the final one just 18m. The complete horizontal safety line system provides access to all areas of the roof which means that future maintenance can be done safely.
