"Nothing else
compares! Our Patented Trolley Beam System is The Safest Fall Arrest
System In The World"
(Click to enlarge.) |
Your fall
protection system should stop your fall in the shortest
possible distance, and our Trolley Beam Systems do just
that. Imagine how dangerous a fall would be with a flexible
lifeline if this man went down between these railcars! Our
trolley beams typically terminate a fall in less than two
feet with no secondary falls. A typical safety cable system
would allow a far greater and much more dangerous fall distance
of four to six feet, and would also allow dangerous bouncing
(secondary falls) to occur as well.

 To
demonstrate a fall arrest with our Trolley Beam System, this 250
pound man intentionally stepped off the rear of the car backwards.
As you can see, his fall was arrested in less than 18".
Rigid Trolley
Rail Style Fall Protection Systems:
Our most popular line of equipment,
these systems are widely recognized as the current standard of the
industry! No other commercially available fall protection system
delivers a safer fall arrest, and no other company in America installs
as many systems as we do. Trolley Beams, despite being universally
considered the most effective fall protection systems, were once
limited to short coverage spans. The development of patented high
strength integrated truss-based systems by Fall Protection Systems,
Inc., has made FPS, Inc. the leading system manufacturer and installer
in the U.S.A. These systems are so unique they are covered under
US patent numbers 6,269,904B1 and D440,023S. Here’s why they are
the most popular system in America.
Highest safety
performance available
Nothing is more effective at arresting
falls than our trolley beam system. Total maximum fall distances
of less than two feet are common with our system! No secondary falls
("no bounces during a fall arrest") are introduced by the system!
Slips and Trips are typically arrested before a worker can fall
to his knees.
 User
Friendliness
These systems eliminate trolley hang-ups
and excessive drag on the lifeline and trolley because there are
no intermediate connections. Our trolley rail systems are laser
leveled, guaranteeing a level, smooth running system end to end.
In dangerous weather, such as high winds or icy conditions, we recommend
that a worker "lock" and continue holding the lifeline, drawing
it along with him while traversing a slippery vehicle, providing
him with moving overhead support to hold on to while walking that
will help maintain his balance.
Unlimited length
and future expansion capability
Want to extend the system later?
No problem. Inexpensive extensions of any length desired can be
added at any time. There is no limit on the total length of this
system. We have several multi-user systems in the field that exceed
one thousand feet in continuous length. How would you efficiently
extend a fixed length wire rope system? Depending on the manufacturer,
many single span safety cable systems are limited to maximum lengths
of between 120 and 150 feet.
Sole Source Responsibility
Fall Protection Systems engineers,
manufactures, and installs most of our systems, eliminating costly
middlemen and lowering your cost. In the unlikely situation where
anything needs warranty attention, you have but one finger to point
and we will respond immediately. No other company in the world installs
as many systems as we do, and our experienced award-winning installation
service is exceptional.

Durability
and Reliability
Without question, Fall Protection
Systems manufactures the most durable system in the industry.
In fact, nothing else compares. None of our thousands of
systems in the field has every needed repairs after a fall
arrest! That means unnecessary downtime is eliminated for
our customers, and eliminates the high expense that all
safety cable customers are required to spend as required
by OSHA regulations to recertify a system after a fall arrest.
Recertification After A Fall
Our trolley beam systems are so durable,
recertification is not required after a fall arrest! Fall
Protection Systems will ask you to visually look over your
system, however, no system has ever required rework in our
many years of experience. Note: The self-retracting lifeline
may require recertification if the red fall indicator has
appeared. Consult User Instruction Manual.

Low Cost/Affordability
We proudly lead the fall protection
industry in America with our exceptionally high quality products
and service, user-friendly performance, and reliability...yet the
cost is surprisingly low. We manufacture and install more fall protection
systems each year than any other company in America. You may be
quite pleasantly surprised to learn how, despite the obvious unparalleled
value, our trolley beam systems are typically priced about the same
as comparable safety cable systems.
Delivery, Terms
and Conditions
From the time you place your order,
we coordinate the installation with your people. Our Field Installation
Superintendent will work with you to obtain permits and variations
if necessary to clear the installation through proper channels.
Once approval is attained, we typically install our systems within
six to eight weeks after order placement.
