Tiebacks and lifelines provide the foundation for safe facade access. These systems secure outrigger systems, lifelines for use on suspended platforms, and other building maintenance equipment to the structure, while also protecting workers from falls. Each anchor is designed and tested to resist forces applied in wood, concrete, or steel, giving confidence during every project.
Facade Access Solutions supplies tiebacks with a rated capacity of 5,000 lbs. in any direction, meeting OSHA regulations and Industry Standards. Lifeline systems add continuous fall protection, supporting horizontal and vertical movement during maintenance work. Together, tiebacks and lifelines form a complete safety system that supports both new construction and retrofit.
Tieback anchors are critical parts of facade access systems. They secure Outrigger systems suspended platform rigging, and other fall protection equipment to wood, concrete and, steel structures. Built for safety and tested capacity, these anchors deliver reliable performance across new construction and retrofit projects.
Installed directly into structural wood, concrete, or steel, roof-mounted tieback anchors provide a strong connection for suspended platform rigging. Proof testing verifies capacity in accordance with OSHA regulations, making this a cost-effective solution.
When roof installation is not practical, wall-mounted systems provide safe and durable anchor points. They connect fall protection systems and Outrigger Systems directly to the building wall, supporting facade work. Each anchor is tested for resistance, delivering long-term durability and safety on site.
Flush anchors sit level or below the roof surface, creating anchor points without visible hardware. This makes them suited for projects where appearance and safety must both be met. It delivers compliance and reliability for BMUs and facade access systems.

A tieback anchor provides a secure point for suspended platforms, BMUs, and other facade access systems. Anchors resist applied forces in wood, concrete, or structural steel, creating stability for equipment and fall protection systems. This safety function is critical in both construction and ongoing building maintenance.
Anchors undergo proof testing where controlled tension is applied to confirm load capacity. Test values are measured against specifications such as installation torque, bond length, and structural resistance. This process verifies that the anchor can safely support suspended platforms and fall protection systems on site.
Yes. Vertical lifelines, horizontal lifelines, and self retracting lifelines can be added to retrofit projects. These systems are commonly installed on roofs or walls to create safe anchor points for workers. Each installation is reviewed for compliance with OSHA and North American standards.
Tiebacks and lifelines require periodic inspections, typically on an annual basis. Systems should also be reviewed after major construction, equipment replacement, or extreme weather. Regular services confirm capacity, test resistance, and add compliance records, keeping the equipment safe and reliable for decades of use.
Yes. Tieback anchors and lifeline systems provide a long-term safety solution that reduces liability and supports efficient facade access. Built with durable rods, bolts, and accessories, these systems are designed to resist tension and movement. They are ideal for both new construction and retrofit projects.
Tiebacks and lifelines from Facade Access Solutions NAM are supported with complete technical documentation. BIM files and technical sheets are available for architects, engineers, and contractors to review during the design stage. Specifications cover anchor capacity, embedment depth, rod size, installation torque, and bond length.
All anchors are proof tested in accordance with OSHA and North American codes. Details include resistance values in concrete, and structural steel. Our team provides references, accessories, and system requirements for each project, making it easy to select the right equipment.
Facade Access Solutions provides complete services for tiebacks and lifelines, from project review to on-site installation. Each anchor system is designed to meet specific job requirements and tested to confirm capacity under applied loads. Our team manages installation torque, bond length, and proof testing so every anchor meets OSHA standards.
Support does not stop after installation. We provide inspection, recertification, and maintenance services to keep systems compliant and reliable for decades of use.
