Fall Protection For ClickLock Panels

Classic Metal Roofing Systems' ClickLock panels offer exceptional durability and aesthetic appeal. However, ensuring the safety of those who work on or around them is crucial. Although the SSRA product line is incompatible due to the aluminum substrate of ClickLock panels, excellent options are still available. For instance, the Ridge Pro Steep Assist Anchor is a great alternative that can provide optimal safety.

Incompatibility with SSRA Products

Using ClickLock panels, made of aluminum substrate, poses a challenge when selecting the proper fall protection systems. Traditional solutions like Standing Seam Roof Anchors (SSRA) may not be compatible with the panels' aluminum composition. However, it's important to note that compromising safety is not an option. Fortunately, there is another solution.

Ridge Pro Steep Assist Anchor

If you are a homeowner or contractor looking for a reliable fall protection solution for ClickLock panels, then the Ridge Pro Steep Assist Anchoris an excellent option. This anchor system provides secure attachment points on steep-slope roofs without drilling or penetrating the roof surface, making it a non-penetrating anchor system.

The Ridge Pro Steep Assist Anchor is a versatile solution for maintenance or installation tasks. It doesn't require any seam attachments or panel penetrations, and it rolls up the roof and hooks over the peak to provide a reliable, temporary anchor point.

This high-quality, industry-leading finish includes reflective pigment that maximizes energy efficiency and reduces cooling costs.
