SafetyLink designs and manufactures height safety equipment roof anchors and lifeline systems which provides restraint and fall arrest safety for all buildings and industrial sites, from a series of roof anchor points to a complete network of systems for maintenance, cleaning, access and inspections where working at heights.
SafetyLink’s team designed the HingeLink with unique energy absorbing capabilities, to reduce the risk of injury to the person and damage to the structure.
The HingeLink complete unit includes SafetyLink’s patented Standard Eyebolt. The Standard Eyebolt is designed for fall arrest, it’s long tapered stem is designed to absorb energy while arresting a fall therefore reducing the load off the structure and the person attached to the anchor. The length of the eyebolt also enables the eyebolt to protrude above the roof structure when installing into timber structures.
SafetyLink’s patented Abseil Eyebolt can also be adapted to the HingeLink forming an anchor from where you can abseil, creating a safe work station for hard to get to maintenance on buildings.
The HingeLink is a multi-directional anchor, a perfect height safety equipment solution in our current climate protecting our investments and working at heights safely.
