Ship & Barge

Marine workers are exposed to numerous fall hazards, the risks of which are heightened by moving waters below. Fall protection solutions for dock, ship, and barge safety must account for the complexity of floating vessels, the effects of ice, rain, and snow, and the location of nearby structures that can make installation difficult.

Ship and barge safety solutions from Diversified Fall Protection provide the highest degree of protection while permitting maximum mobility. For docked barge applications, DFP offers a variety of fall protection solutions, including overhead rigid rail systems. Innovative designs utilize our patented TD3 triangular trusses which allow for longer spans between columns — reducing both cost and footprint. Diversified Fall Protection also offers permanently attached lifeline solutions to protect workers when barges are not docked.

Whether your application is a new fabrication, a repair, or the day-to-day operation of a ship or barge, keeping workers safe at heights requires comprehensive fall prevention.

Diversified Fall Protection provides expert engineering, design, installation and training to ensure correct use and continued safety. DFP will conduct a thorough onsite inspection to recommend a tailored solution for your needs. Schedule a site evaluation to learn how DFP can help you safeguard your ship or barge application.
