Portable C-Frame Fall Protection Systems
Tuff Built by Diversified Fall Protection, mobile C-Frame Systems are versatile and portable fall arrest equipment solutions for working at heights. The light weight of portable C-Frames allows the fall arrest system to be moved manually or, for units with integrated stair systems, with a forklift. C-Frame fall protection systems are ideal for applications with some clearance under the equipment to accommodate outrigger support legs.
Fall arrest equipment includes fixed or adjustable height configurations with optional access stair systems. The portable C-Frame fall arrest systems are fully compliant with OSHA fall protection regulations.

What is fall arrest equipment?
Fall arrest systems stop falls in progress. A tied off worker may fall over a leading edge with these types of systems, but their fall is arrested before contacting the next lower surface. Fall arrest systems also absorb the force that a body would see during a fall. Self-retracting lifelines and shock absorbing lanyards are examples of fall arrest systems.
We are a complete turnkey provider of OSHA compliant portable and mobile fall arrest systems and have years of design and installation experience. Contact us for expert assistance with your fall arrest, fall restraint systems, and fall protection safety requirements.
OSHA Regulations
- Personal Fall Arrest Systems: System performance criteria. In addition to the general requirements in paragraph (c) of this section, the employer must ensure that personal fall arrest systems: 1910.140(d)(1)(i)
- Limit the maximum arresting force on the employee to 1,800 pounds (8 kN); 1910.140(d)(1)(ii)
- Bring the employee to a complete stop and limit the maximum deceleration distance the employee travels to 3.5 feet (1.1 m); 1910.140(d)(1)(iii)
- Have sufficient strength to withstand twice the potential impact energy of the employee free falling a distance of 6 feet (1.8 m), or the free fall distance permitted by the system; and... 1910.140(d)(1)(iv)
- Sustain the employee within the system/strap configuration without making contact with the employee's neck and chin area. 1910.140(d)(1)(v)
- On any horizontal lifeline that may become a vertical lifeline, the device used to connect to the horizontal lifeline is capable of locking in both directions on the lifeline. 1910.140(d)(2)(ii)
- Personal fall arrest systems are rigged in such a manner that the employee cannot free fall more than 6 feet (1.8 m) or contact a lower level. A free fall may be more than 6 feet (1.8 m) provided the employer can demonstrate the manufacturer designed the system to allow a free fall of more than 6 feet and tested the system to ensure a maximum arresting force of 1,800 pounds (8 kN) is not exceeded. 1910.140(d)(3)
- Body belts. Body belts are prohibited as part of a personal fall arrest system.
