The Ridge Pro Roof Peak Anchor—First Man-Up Anchor
Safely transition from the ladder to the roof with Ridge Pro.
This safety device is a First Man Up (FMU) Last Man Down (LMD) roof anchoring system designed for 6/12 to 12/12 roof pitches. The Ridge Pro offers a safe solution for transitioning from the ladder to the actual roof and back to the ladder. It allows for quicker access to the peak than a standard fall protection rope and harness setup. The cross members are padded to protect your roof and can accept four 5/16 lag bolts to make it OSHA-compliant for an anchoring device. The body is made from super strong, lightweight, high-grade aluminum for easy transport, and it has a built-in stainless-steel shackle harness and rope receiver. This Ridge Pro is a much more cost-effective solution than scaffolding or roof planks. The RidgePro may be used temporarily or long-term for roof access. Its versatility allows for use across a wide variety of roofing materials and is perfect for installing snow guards on just about any steep roof.
Ridge Pro Can be used by many trades.
The Ridge Pro is the ultimate roof peak anchor device for Roofing Contractors, Solar Installers, Gutter Companies, Insurance Adjusters, Chimney Sweeps, Telcom Providers, Disaster Restoration, Rescue Professionals, and even a DIY Handyman or Homeowner who services their own roof.
Ridge Pro is OSHA Compliant.
When anchored with appropriate lag bolts, the Ridgepro is compliant with OSHA standard 1926 Subpart M for a single user, withstanding and exceeding 5,000 pounds of static strength force.
Ridge Pro can be used as a roof inspection tool for 15 minutes without fastening.
When not anchored, OSHA does not regulate "non-anchors," so you would be working with the Ridge Pro as an inspection tool, which grants 15 minutes of time on the roof before you must anchor.
Please Note: The older version of the RidgePro used a special pole that had a threaded tip with a hole drilled out to accept a locking pin. The newer, improved version of the Ridgepro uses the Sherlock RO57 fiberglass telescoping pole that extends from 8 feet to 16 feet. The latest version of the Ridgepro is much quicker to install and eliminates the need to screw the pole into the device. The process of installing the pole is now simplified, and there is less chance of omitting the important positive locking shackle that slides through both the RidgePro and the pole. The Sherlock RO57 poles is also available for purchase from most major paint and big-box stores. The poles sold at the paint and box stores have a threaded tip installed. To use the Ridgepro, simply remove the threaded tip by removing a rivet or unscrewing a Phillips head screw. Slide the open end of the pole onto the Ridgepro and insert and lock the included shackle. If you choose the RidgePro PLUS option from us, the pole will be ready to use right out of the box with no threaded tip to remove. See the video below for step-by-step instructions.
