Suitable for both fall restraint and fall arrest applications, Kee Line systems are widely used across the UK to improve rooftop safety and support compliance with the Work at Height Regulations 2005.
With over 30 years of experience, Safesite designs, installs, inspects, and maintains Kee Line lifeline systems, helping organisations create safer working environments and remain compliant with UK safety standards.
Kee Line® is a permanent horizontal lifeline system that allows workers to remain connected to a secure anchor line while moving across a roof or elevated structure.
The system uses a high-strength stainless steel cable installed between anchor points to create a continuous safety line. Workers connect to the cable using a lanyard and specialist traveller device, enabling safe movement while remaining protected.
Kee Line systems are commonly used for:
Because the system provides continuous attachment, workers can move safely across large roof areas without disconnecting and reconnecting at multiple anchor points.
Stainless Steel Safety Cable - The system is built around a durable stainless steel cable that runs between engineered anchor points.
This cable provides a continuous connection point for workers operating at height.
Intermediate Brackets - Intermediate brackets support the cable across long distances and help maintain system integrity.
These brackets are designed to allow the traveller device to pass through without requiring users to disconnect.
Traveller System - Workers connect to the lifeline using a dedicated traveller that glides smoothly along the cable.
This allows uninterrupted movement while maintaining continuous fall protection.
Energy Absorbing Technology - In the event of a fall, integrated energy-absorbing components help reduce forces applied to the user and the structure.
Continuous User Protection - Unlike isolated anchor points, Kee Line provides protection throughout the entire access route, helping reduce risk and improve efficiency.

Continuous Fall Protection - Workers remain connected to the system throughout the entire access route.
Greater Freedom of Movement - The traveller system allows users to move efficiently without repeatedly disconnecting and reconnecting.
Suitable for Complex Roof Layouts - Kee Line can be designed around plant equipment, rooflights, walkways, and other rooftop features.
Supports Multiple Users - Depending on system specification, multiple workers can use the lifeline simultaneously.
Corrosion Resistant Construction - The stainless steel design provides excellent durability and weather resistance.
Low Visual Impact - Compared to guardrail systems, lifelines offer a more discreet rooftop safety solution.
Although often used together, fall restraint and fall arrest systems perform different functions.
Fall Restraint - A fall restraint system prevents the user from physically reaching the roof edge.
Fall Arrest - A fall arrest system allows access to hazardous areas while providing protection if a fall occurs.
Kee Line Flexibility - Kee Line systems can often be designed to support both restraint and arrest applications, depending on the roof layout and operational requirements.
Work at Height Regulations 2005 - Employers have a legal duty to protect workers from falls wherever reasonably practicable.
Kee Line systems help organisations meet these obligations by providing controlled and secure access at height.
BS EN 795:2012 - This standard specifies requirements for anchor devices used as part of personal fall protection systems.
BS 7883 - BS 7883 provides guidance on the design, installation, and use of anchor devices.
HSE Guidance - The Health and Safety Executive recommends selecting the most appropriate fall protection solution based on site-specific risk assessments.
