What to check before choosing a mobile anchor
FOUR QUESTIONS
ROOF SURFACE
Makers approve specific surfaces: membrane, gravel, concrete, metal deck. Wet, icy or dusty surfaces can change the rating.
SLOPE
These systems are for flat and low-slope roofs. The manual gives the maximum pitch.
HOW MANY WORKERS
Some units take one worker in fall arrest; others take more, or switch between arrest and restraint.
GETTING IT UP THERE
Check the weight of each piece and whether it breaks down for the hoist, ladder or hatch you have.
SetbackEvery counterweight anchor has a minimum distance from the roof edge. Set it up exactly as the maker's instructions show.

Mobile and counterweight anchors: common questions
ANSWERS YOU CAN CITE
01Does a counterweight anchor damage the roof?
It does not fasten to the roof, so there are no holes to seal. Protect the membrane as the maker directs and keep the surface clean under the base.
02Can I use one on a sloped roof?
Only up to the slope the maker allows, which is low. For pitched roofs use a roof anchor made for the roof type.
03What certification do these carry?
It varies by brand and model. Each product page states its actual rating. Match it to your provincial OHS rules, or call 437-475-2066 and we will check it for you.
