When is a lifeline needed?

  • Roof with no anchor points

    We assess the substrate, the routes and who will use the system.

    Stainless steel cable with posts and a tensioner along the roof.

  • Single anchor points

    Fixed points for rope access on the façade or areas with no continuous line.

  • Vertical lifeline

    For fixed ladders and vertical access to the roof.

  • Leak-free fixing

    Chemical or mechanical anchors to suit the substrate, with the waterproofing resealed.

Lifelines in Horta-Guinardó: what the roofs are like

In 1960s and 70s blocks in areas such as El Baix Guinardó, El Guinardó and Can Baró, air conditioning units and solar panels have been added to the roof over the years with no thought for who maintains them. We propose a line that runs past each unit and anchors near the light-well parapets.

On roofs in areas such as El Carmel and La Teixonera we start by checking the slab or structure the anchors will go into: thickness, material and condition. Depending on that we use chemical, mechanical or through-bolted anchors, and carry out pull-out tests where they are needed.

A site manager coordinates the installation with the residents or owners and leaves the roof clean; before that come the visit and a detailed written quote. We also install lifelines nearby: Gràcia, Nou Barris and Sant Andreu.

Frequently asked questions

01

Lifeline and anchor installation in Horta-Guinardó: which areas do you cover?

02

What is the difference between a lifeline and a single anchor?

A lifeline is a continuous cable that lets you move across the roof without unclipping. A single anchor is a fixed point to attach to in one specific spot, as in façade work.

03

Does a lifeline need inspecting after installation?

Yes. Manufacturers call for periodic inspection, usually once a year, and always after a fall. We can take care of those inspections.

04

Can it be fitted on a tiled or metal roof?

Yes. We use posts and fixings designed for each roof type, whether flat, tiled, metal sheet or sandwich panel, and seal every penetration to keep water out.
