Overview

The APEX Retractable Anchor Post System is a permanently installed fall arrest solution designed to enhance safety on fixed ladders. Ideal for both above-ground and below-ground applications, APEX ensures workers can safely ascend and descend ladders by providing a secure anchorage point that meets OSHA and ANSI standards. Its dual-post design improves ladder-top transitions, reducing the risk of falls and fatigue during mounting and dismounting. When used in conjunction with a vertical fall arrest system, it offers continuous protection from the ground up, making it an essential addition to industrial and commercial ladder systems. Engineered with hexagonal-shaped, retractable aluminum posts, the APEX system offers strength, stability, and ergonomic ease. The bright yellow finish enhances visibility on the job site, while cam and pin locks keep the posts securely in place during use. Its stainless steel lanyard anchor point allows for seamless tie-off at the ladder top, complying with OSHA ladder safety requirements. Lightweight yet durable, the APEX system installs easily on nearly any fixed ladder without the need for custom hardware and has been independently tested to exceed load requirements of over 5,000 lbs, ensuring long-term reliability in harsh environments.
