  Experience - FLS has designed and installed more fall protection systems in more applications and industries than any other fall protection system contractor in North America. Every day, our fall protection systems protect thousands of workers from injuries or death due to fall hazards. We are heavily involved in the bulk-loading industry with thousands of fall protection systems in use at grain facilities, chemical plants, oil refineries, cement plants, plastic manufacturers and other bulk-loading and transloading facilities.
Professional Engineers - FLS has Professional Engineers on staff whose sole purpose is the design of fall protection systems. They are experienced in the loading characteristics of fall protection systems and, when systems are attached to your existing buildings, are capable of analyzing your structure to ensure that the building is capable of withstanding the loads imposed upon it by the fall protection systems. They design innovative, lightweight connection details to keep costs to a minimum and they are familiar with local and federal regulations and the OSHA and ANSI standards.
       
       
      Insurance - FLS maintains all appropriate insurances as applicable for the design and installation of fall protection systems including the endorsement for working within 50' of an active railroad. Check out any competitor’s insurance certificate. Ask for a copy of the endorsement for working near active railroads. Ensure that the contractor is covered for the design and installation of fall protection systems.  
             
     

References and testimonials - Ask for references in your area. Since we are a national fall protection contractor with installations all over the country, chances are we have a satisfied customer with a system installed near you. Check out the system, how it works, look at the quality of the fabrications, the foundations and ask the customer what he thought about the project from start to finish.

Life Expectancy - All of our Flexible Lifeline Systems have a design life expectancy of 20 years. In that time the consumables such as retractable lifelines, trolley wheels and harnesses may have to be replaced but the system itself will remain unfazed by weather or other environmental conditions. We have subjected our systems to independent 3rd party testing to include 20 year salt-spray testing, wind vortex shedding to ensure that the systems are not only the highest performing systems available but to ensure that you get the longest lasting fall protection system.

Warranty - All Flexible Lifeline Systems, regardless of system type come with a five (5) year warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.
