Standing Seam Roof Anchor

The SSRA Fall Protection Component System is a modular, non-penetrating safety solution designed for 95% of today's standing-seam metal roofs, allowing you to install fall protection quickly without compromising the roof's integrity or warranty. The SSRA1 anchor base enables fast adaptation by allowing contractors to swap the removable D-ring for adapter plates like the SSRA2 Roof Jack or the SSRA3 Horizontal Lifeline (HLL) Plate—all without drilling or voiding warranties, maximizing safety and flexibility on the job.

The SSRA1 anchor fits over 500 different standing seam profiles. These include snap-lock, mechanical lock, T-seams, and bulb-style panels. Its adjustable-height base and height-adjustable stabilizer feet allow secure mounting to seam heights of 1 to 3 inches on 22- or 24-gauge steel.

Yes, the SSRA system is a multi-functional safety tool that eliminates the need for single-purpose brackets. Use the SSRA2 Adjustable Roof Jack adapters to create a level staging platform for 2x10 walkboards on pitches up to 12/12. For fall protection, simply remove the staging adapter and reinstall the 5,000 lbs-rated D-ring. This converts the base into a certified fall arrest anchor.

The SSRA system is the industry's most versatile foundation for temporary horizontal lifelines. Attach the SSRA3 Anchor Plate to two SSRA1 seam anchors, one at each end of the run. Contractors can then deploy 100-foot HLL systems that support up to 2 workers simultaneously. This non-penetrating setup provides a 100% tie-off solution for large-scale commercial roofing projects.

Yes, all SSRA components are fully compliant with OSHA 1926 and ANSI Z359.18. These include the SSRA1 anchors, SSRA2 adapters, and SSRA3 plates. Third-party ISO 17025 laboratories have tested the components to exceed 5,000 lbs ultimate breaking strength. This ensures professional-grade safety on every job site.

The SSRA1 kit includes the anchor base, 3/16" socket bit, and set screws. The Deluxe kit and Pro Packs add a 1/4-inch-drive micro-torque wrench and nylon tip screws. A torque wrench is mandatory for a safe installation: use 90 in/lbs for cupped-tip screws and 180-200 in/lbs for nylon-tipped screws. Deluxe kits provide your crew with the exact tools needed for OSHA compliance.

The SSRA2 Roof Jack system is 50% lighter and much more cost-effective than traditional steel brackets. Steel brackets can weigh 26 lbs and cost over $1,300 each. SSRA components are made from high-grade 6061-T6 aluminum and stainless steel. They are rust-resistant and easy to transport up a ladder. The SSRA2 Roof Jack system offers a 3-in-1 solution for staging, fall arrest, and lifelines that steel brackets cannot match.
