04725 BRIDGE GUARD ™ 2-Way
An HLL stanchion designed for bridge building work
The Bridge Guard™ is used to set up HLL systems along bridges or similar unprotected raised platforms. Suitable for either retrofit or cast-in-place applications, it is geared for long-term installation and use. HLL systems are ideal for bridge work because they allow much greater access than standard static anchors. With the Bridge Guard™, workers can traverse the entire span of the bridge without the need to disconnect/reconnect to multiple anchor points.

From The ESS Team
Construction on bridges and elevated structures demands a robust fall protection system, but traditional methods can be cumbersome and time-consuming. The Bridge Guard Fall Protection System (2-Way) offers a user-friendly and cost-effective solution for horizontal lifeline applications. This innovative system prioritizes worker safety while streamlining your project workflow.
Why Choose the Bridge Guard (2-Way)?
-
Efficient Horizontal Lifeline Installation: The Bridge Guard system facilitates a quick and easy setup for horizontal lifelines on concrete bridge decks. The posts install directly into pre-drilled cores, eliminating the need for welding or complex rigging. This translates to faster setup times and reduced project delays.
-
Exceptional Worker Mobility: This 2-way system allows for lifeline installation in both directions from the post. This configuration provides workers with ample freedom of movement across the bridge surface, minimizing the need to constantly reattach their lanyards.
-
Durable and Weatherproof Design: The Bridge Guard system is built to withstand the rigors of construction environments. Constructed from high-strength aluminum, the posts and components are resistant to corrosion and harsh weather conditions, ensuring safe use throughout your project.
-
FME Prevention Champion: Dropped objects pose a serious safety hazard on bridge projects. The Bridge Guard system helps prevent Foreign Material Exclusion (FME) incidents by creating a dedicated lifeline for securing tools. By attaching lanyards with carabiners to the system, you eliminate the need for tools to be precariously balanced or left on edges, minimizing the risk of falls and disruptions to workflow.
-
Cost-Effective Safety Solution: This affordable system offers exceptional value for the price. The Bridge Guard eliminates the need for expensive and time-consuming welding, utilizes lightweight aluminum for reduced shipping costs, and simplifies installation, ultimately saving you time and money.
Who Needs the Bridge Guard Fall Protection System (2-Way)?
The Bridge Guard system is ideal for construction professionals involved in projects on bridges and elevated structures, including:
- Ironworkers and steel erectors: Secure a horizontal lifeline system quickly and efficiently to ensure safe movement across the bridge deck while working on beams, columns, and other structural elements.
- Bridge maintenance crews: Utilize the system for fall protection during routine maintenance and inspection tasks on bridge surfaces.
- Construction personnel (bridge projects): Ensure safety for a variety of construction activities with a versatile and easy-to-install horizontal lifeline system.
