Anchor-mounted leading-edge self-retracting lifeline with an energy absorber located at the harness end. Designed to be installed at foot level or above when anchorage is not available at or above the user's dorsal D-ring. The housing is a high-impact polymer and the lifeline is a galvanized steel cable suitable for use where the lifeline may contact sharp edges.

Project Ideas

Business

SRL Rental + Anchor Bundle

Offer short-term rentals of leading-edge SRLs paired with matched anchors (parapet clamps, weighted anchors) and edge protection. Include pre/post-use inspections, delivery/pickup, and digital paperwork. Target roofers, solar installers, and facility managers who need Class 2, foot-level-compatible solutions on demand.


On-Site Leading-Edge Training & Competent Person Workshops

Provide paid half-day trainings covering hazard assessment, anchor selection from above D-ring to foot level, proper connector use (3,600 lb gates), and inspection of the SRL. Include hands-on drills with your mobile rig and issue completion certificates aligned with OSHA/ANSI best practices.


Fall Protection Program-in-a-Box

Sell turnkey kits for small contractors: the 18 ft SRL, compatible anchors, written fall protection plan templates, inspection logs, and QR-coded microlearning videos. Offer annual subscription updates and replacement reminders to stay aligned with ANSI Z359.14-2021 and OSHA 1926.502.


Inspection, Tracking, and Coordination Service

Launch a service that performs periodic user-level inspections, labels each SRL with a QR code, logs results in a cloud dashboard, and coordinates manufacturer service or replacement per interval/incident. Monetize via per-unit monthly fee and compliance reporting for audits.


Content-Driven E‑Commerce Niche

Build an online shop specializing in leading-edge Class 2 SRLs and accessories. Publish comparison guides (cable vs webbing, foot-level arrest clearance), edge-case calculators, and job-specific bundles (roofing, steel erection, maintenance). Drive sales via SEO, affiliate partnerships with safety trainers, and contractor discounts.

Creative

Mobile Leading-Edge Training Rig

Build a foldable demo platform on a small trailer with a mock roof edge and interchangeable anchors to teach foot-level and overhead anchoring. Use the 18 ft Class 2 SRL to demonstrate proper tie-off, sharp-edge routing with galvanized cable, and connector checks (3,600 lb gates). Offer it for safety days, trade schools, or contractor onboarding.


Rooftop Garden/Solar Service Safety Kit

Craft a compact, weatherproof crate that organizes the SRL, compatible anchors (parapet clamp or weighted anchor), edge guards, lanyard keepers, tags, and inspection checklist. The 18 ft reach and sharp-edge cable make it ideal for green-roof and solar maintenance where edges and foot-level anchors are common.


Truck Rack With Integrated Anchor Points

Fabricate a steel utility rack for contractor trucks with engineered 5,000 lb-rated anchor points designed for the SRL. Include protected routing for the galvanized cable and storage for the high-impact polymer housing. This adds safe tie-off when loading materials at the truck or working off the side.


Interactive Safety Exhibit (Non-Functional Cutaway + Live Unit)

Design a museum-style display: a 3D-printed cutaway model illustrating the SRL’s energy absorber at the harness end and cable path, placed beside a real, unmodified unit for hands-on connection drills. Great for safety fairs and client lobbies to promote fall protection culture without compromising the actual device.


Sharp-Edge Awareness Bench

Build a benchtop teaching station with interchangeable ‘edge’ coupons (steel, concrete, sheet metal) and a low-force tension system to visualize how edge geometry affects lifelines. Pair with the SRL’s galvanized cable for routing demonstrations and ANSI Z359.14-2021 Class 2 discussion—no drop testing, just handling and inspection practice.
