fall protection and rescue is serious business
Imagine yourself slowly climbing to repair a tower on top of the John Hancock Building in 40 knot winds — 130 stories above Chicago with the world rushing beneath you, including jet aircraft, or Balancing on an eighteen-inch walkway as you inspect the structure of the Mackinaw Island Bridge, a half mile over the Straights of Mackinaw, with unsuspecting miniature barges and tourists passing below, or Crawling through tunnels under the streets of New York City, daylight overhead, but darkness and moisture surrounding you, as you try to locate a break in miles and miles of electrical cable.
There are no margins for error. Every day, workers throughout the world risk their lives to build the structures we live in, work in, pass over, and communicate from. They are people like you and I and they deserve the best protection available. These situations are out there, and late in the day when you are tired and your foot slips or you are in a harsh environment that is anything but clean, wearing the BEST means you'll make it home that night. The BEST means that every product produced and delivered meets or exceeds the toughest standards required by the Occupational Safety and Health Association (OSHA) and the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) as well as the Canadian Standards Association (CSA). It means that these products and their testing is verified by a qualified third party, such as the Safety Equipment Institute (SEI); designed and produced in accordance with ISO 9001 certification standards, and backed with product liability, support and training.
We build the BEST. We are DBI/SALA
Safety Systems
Specialized Safety Systems designed for the way you work. DBI/SALA knows that while on the job you need comfort, mobility and safety! We’ve designed each component of our safety systems to be fully customizable, ready to fit any size or shape. And because every safety system provides flexibility and full mobility, we make it easier to keep working productively while remaining fully protected. With 25 years of fall protection expertise, we offer the broadest line of safety equipment in the industry; including harnesses, shock absorbing lanyards, self-retracting lifelines, rescue and retrieval equipment and more! We engineer all safety systems to meet (and exceed) every code! The DBI/SALA team works with you to design and construct a system engineered for maximum safety and comfort every time! We also have a complete line of specialty items to address unique safety concerns and provide safety solutions for challenging environments. For example, flame-resistant Kevlar® webbing harnesses and lanyards assure safety when working around flame and excessive heat. Non-sparking/non-conductive hardware offers the protection you need while working in explosive environments or when electrical conductivity is an issue. With our total safety systems approach, DBI/SALA takes fall protection to a new level. And to make sure you have total protection, each one of our five basic systems typically contains four safety components: a body support, connecting component, anchorage connector and anchorage.

Work Positioning Work positioning systems will hold and sustain you at a specific work location, limiting any free fall to two feet or less. Rebar tying and concrete wall-form work are typical applications. For maximum security, each work positioning system includes a Delta No-Tangle™ full body harness connected by a chain or web rebar assembly, or a rope or web lanyard. A workseat can also be added for additional support. A carabiner or snap hook connector is used to fasten to the anchorage, generally rebar or a support structure.

Safety Systems Fall Arrest Fall arrest systems are typically used to protect workers when they are six feet or more above the ground. For maximum safety, all of our fall arrest systems are designed to limit the maximum arresting forces to 900 lbs. or less--half of the OSHA standard of 1,800 pounds.Typical fall arrest applications are steel erection, suspended platform activities and elevated maintenance work. Every DBI/SALA fall arrest system includes a Delta No-Tangle™ full body harness for body support; a connecting component such as a shock absorbing lanyard, selfretracting lifeline, or rope grab; an anchorage connector such as a carabiner, tie-off adapter, trolley, or beam clamp; and a solid anchorage, such as an I-beam or another type of support structure.

Safety Systems Restraint
Roof Maintenance
Restraint systems prevent you from reaching an area where a free fall could occur. Leading edge roof work typically calls for a restraint system. For body support you can use either a DeltaNo-Tangle™ full body harness or a body belt that connects to a rope or web lanyard connecting component. For secure anchorage, restraint systems use an anchorage connector such as an anchorage plate with a D-ring or a support structure that connects to the lanyard with a carabiner or snap hook.

Suspension Use a suspension system to support and hold you without any possibility of a free fall while you are being raised or lowered. Boatswain's chair jobs, such as painting or window washing, are common examples. DBI/SALA suspension systems provide total safety with the Delta No-Tangle™ full body harness and a workseat or boatswain’s chair as body support components.The connecting component is generally a rescue-positioning device (RPD), Fisk Descender™ or winch.The anchorage connector can be a carabiner or tie-off adapter; with anchorage from a tripod, davit arm or support structure.
Inspection at every critical step in the manufacturing process ensures you get the highest quality product in the industry.
Rescue Rescue systems are designed to raise or lower you to safety in an emergency without any possibility of a free fall. Rescue systems are typically used in confined space work, such as underground utility projects or tank maintenance. For total body support, DBI/SALA rescue systems use a Delta No-Tangle™ full body harness and/or a rescue cradle connected to a winch, self-retracting lifeline, rescue positioning device or a Rollgliss® system anchorage connector.That, in turn, is connected directly to an anchorage I-beam, to the ground or to an anchorage connector such as a tripod, davit arm, carabiner or tie-off adapter.

Full Body Harnesses
New Technology, Great Look, Better Fit The ExoFit™ design is based on the concept of a single piece of material constructed in the shape of an “X” that wraps around you for the ultimate in no-tangle donning and comfortable security. From the moment you put it on, the ExoFit™ exceeds anything you’ve ever worn in a fall protection harness.The materials are soft and light-weight, yet extremely durable.The shoulder, hip and leg padding is built-in so it can’t slip.The breathable Dri-lex® lining guarantees you’ll stay dry and comfortable every day.And the quick-connect buckles are fast, efficient and totally secure! It even has a memory! Put on the ExoFit™ Harness, adjust it, and from then on it remembers the adjustment.The next time you’re on the job, slip it over your shoulders like a vest, snap the three ExoFit™ buckles and you’re ready to work. It’s faster than putting on and buttoning up your shirt! The ExoFit™ Harness gives you good looks, comfort and technology from today’s recreational harnesses – parasailing, backpacking, skydiving; absolute functionality from the military; and guaranteed high standards and safety from both. It’s a perfect marriage.
Quick Connect Buckle One-handed buckle - Finally, a harness with intuitive, quick on/off buckles. It’s even color differentiated so you can always find the release levers. No more buckle fumbling, adjusting or frustration. Easily adjust, engage and disengage with only one hand. It’s the first and only quick connect buckle to meet all fall protection regulatory guidelines. To keep you safe, the ExoFit™ buckle holds, even if you accidentally depress one of the release levers. It requires an opposed-action, dual thumb and finger grip to release the buckle. Easy when you want to release it; impossible when you don’t. Down to the Details-The bright yellow SALA insert adds enough depth so adjustment straps flow through the buckle. An easy-grip tab at the end of the strap give you something solid to pull on. • Zinc plated with black e-coat finish • Tested for 4000 lbs. minimum breaking strength • Environmentally tested - Fully tested in dirt and grime, heat, cold, humidity and salt spray. • Easily adjustable, intuitive operation, color coded
Dri-lex® Lining It’s No Sweat! The ExoFit’s™ Dri-lex® lining hates moisture; immediately pulling it away from you so you’re always dry and comfortable.Whether you’re sweating in the heat or the cold, you’ll never feel damp! Dri-lex® has a unique threelayer knit construction that creates a built-in air chamber providing air circulation to ventilate and cool your body. Developed for sport, recreation and work shoe linings, it’s built for rugged endurance and is resistant to both odor and mildew.The moisture-wicking fabric contains a moisture and air-moving chamber between the top, hydrophobic layer and the bottom layer of hydrophilic Hydrofil® nylon.That’s a technical way to say that the side against you hates the water and the other side loves it. No matter how you define it; your comfort is guaranteed day after day; year after year.

To comply with federal law, the full body harness must include a back D-ring for connection with an independent lifeline and must incorporate a fall arrest sub-system that will limit the maximum free fall to six feet or less and limit the maximum arresting force to 1,800 lbs. or less. Contact DBI/SALA for further information on compliance issues.

Force2™ Lanyards Use the powerful Force2™ shock absorbing lanyard when there is no overhead anchorage and your only option is to tie off at your feet--a situation often faced by iron workers. Because this creates a much greater free fall distance, standard shock absorbers will bottom out, putting dangerous forces on your body.The Force2™ is the ONLY lanyard available that can take a 12 foot free fall and still keep forces below OSHA’s limits when tying off at your feet.

Sayfglida® Unrivaled Horizontal Protection Reliable, Simple & Safe Some of the most common fall hazards occur when workers operating in the horizontal plane do not have continuous access to suitable anchorage points, exposing them to unnecessary risk of injury or death should they fall when near a vertical drop.These situations are found throughout industry, and DBI/SALA’s Sayfglida® system provides complete protection—without restricting the ability of workers to perform their normal operations. DBI/SALA knows you need comfort, mobility and safety while on the job. Our fully engineered permanent horizontal lifelines offer each of those features.Whether it is our durable 12mm Sayfglida® system that can span further between intermediates and accommodate more users than most systems on the market, or our lighter weight and more economical 8mm system, DBI/SALA has the horizontal protection system for you. Each combines ease of use, flexibility and low maintenance, guaranteeing optimum performance and worker satisfaction. Typical applications include...Railcars, Bridgecranes,Truck Trailers, Busses/Mass Transit, Modular Home Building, Aircraft Hangers, Bridges, Cranes, Convention Centers, Rooftops, Arena Rigging, Window Washing, Exposed Walkways
Exclusive Computerized Fall Analysis Program During initial development, DBI/SALA commissioned the design of a sophisticated computer program to simulate any specified fall on any given Sayfglida® installation. Unlike ALL other manufacturers’ programs which “predict” system loads, DBI/SALA’s software measures actual falls in “real time,” based on thousands of drop tests. It provides detailed information for use by a Certified Installer to custom-design each system specifically to the site.This unique computer software not only calculates the loading imposed on each system component and anchorage point, but also the arresting force and fall clearance needed by the worker.These calculations are critical and must be based on actual test data to ensure worker safety, not guesses or predictions.

Unique Sayfglida® Features Sayfglida® is the world’s most advanced horizontal lifeline system available, providing unrivaled levels of protection.The system utilizes a patented Sayflink® sleeve that slides easily over intermediate anchorage brackets and around corner brackets hands-free, with no manipulation required by the user. Install the system above, even with, or below the user. Total length is unlimited for ultimate versatility.
Roof Maintenance
Arena Rigging Detachable Sayflink® Sleeve: The patented Sayflink® Sleeve, when attached to a harness and lanyard/self-retracting lifeline, ensures a user-positive contact with the Sayfglida® system because of its ability to bypass all intermediate brackets and corner units. Chamfered helical surfaces provide smooth passage along the system with no manipulation required by the user (hands-free operation!). Built-in rollers assist in the effortless movement, and it can be easily attached or removed anywhere along the system. Constructed of stainless steel and with no moving parts, the Sayflink® Sleeve is ideal for harsh environments.A non-detachable model for use with in-line entry/exit units is also available.
Bridge Cranes
Corner Bracket: Passage around curves is achieved through use of a Corner Bracket, a bent tube attached to an intermediate bracket to properly position the cable. It allows the Sayflink® Sleeve to bypass corners hands-free without the user detaching from the lifeline.
Intermediate Brackets:
Truck Loading
Manufactured from stainless steel, the MultiDimensional Intermediate Brackets are designed for installation in a variety of orientations above, even with, or below the user.This versatility ensures the Sayflink® Sleeve will always smoothly bypass the bracket, whatever the particular height of the cable installation. More importantly, should a fall occur, the brackets are designed not only to swivel on the anchoring bolt but also to deform in shape.This helps dissipate the energy generated by a fall and ensures minimal shock loads imposed on the user, limits line deflection, and allows for a reduction in anchorage point strength requirements.
Shock Absorber:
Railcar Loading
For structures limited in strength, the Sayfglida® system can be configured with our in-line Zorbit™ energy absorber to limit forces and help control the end anchor loads.
Window Washing

Confined Space Rescue Modular Davit Arm/Base Assembly Because you told us it had to be readily accessible and easy to use, we built a modular system that fits in two bags with no piece longer than 4 ft. long, easily fitting into a vehicle locker.The bags are light enough for two men to carry to the entry hole and assemble in less than 5 minutes. Safely connect up and then pivot to the entry hole. The Davit Rescue System is constructed of anodized aluminum, zinc-coated steel and stainless to maximize strength, minimize weight and resist corrosion. Computer-aided design and analysis allowed us to eliminate unnecessary bulk by taking advantage of the newest manufacturing techniques. The added style was a bonus. You also asked for an adaptable system. One of our design philosophies was universality.The mast and boom readily adapt to interchangeable bases, giving you a totally efficient, mix and match system. For example, install permanent bases on a series of tanks and move the davit arm from one to another; or use a wall mount for one application; the portable base for another.
