Safety roof hooks for fall protection

Safety roof hooks from LUX-top® for fall protection

When working on a pitched roof, protection against falling is particularly important. One small misstep and serious injuries are possible. LUX-top® – the specialist for safety solutions on roofs – offers high-quality roof hooks for precisely this situation.

Safety roof hooks with an integrated anchor point provide roofers, carpenters and industrial climbers with reliable support. Firmly and securely mounted, safety roof hooks serve to provide users such as roofers with personal fall protection equipment (PPE) with practical fall protection. Roof hooks from LUX-top® are therefore ideal for creating weather-resistant fall protection systems on pitched roofs.

Certification and installation of LUX-top® roof hooks for pitched roofs

All our safety roof hooks are made of stainless steel and are tested in a factory production control (FPC) according to EN 1090-2 to meet the highest requirements. In addition, our roof hooks have a type examination certificate in accordance with type B of DIN EN 517: 2006.

When installing roof hooks, the load-bearing capacity of the roof/substructure should always be checked beforehand. If such a check cannot be carried out by an expert user, a structural engineer/structural engineer must be consulted. In addition, the roof hooks may only be attached using the materials supplied in order to ensure the greatest possible safety on the roof. More detailed information on installation and corresponding safety instructions can be found in the online instructions for use.
