ROOFTOP FALL PROTECTION & SAFETY SYSTEMS

Who Do They
Come Home For?

Every job, every day should end the same way: with everyone going home. LeadingEdge Safety designs and builds mobile fall protection, guardrail and rooftop safety systems for the people you’re responsible for.

THE REASON WE ENGINEER AND BUILD FALL PROTECTION EQUIPMENT

The Risk is Real. So is the Responsibility.

Falls remain the leading cause of death in construction. That’s why effective fall protection is needed long before anyone steps onto the roof or a jobsite. Leading Edge Safety was founded after our CEO witnessed the life-changing consequences of a rooftop fall. That firsthand experience continues to drive our mission today: developing better equipment to help protect workers at height. We don’t sell peace of mind. We engineer it. Peace of mind that your crews have the equipment to do the job safely. Fall protection equipment that’s engineered so everyone comes home.

Rooftop Fall Protection Built on Field Experience

When you’re responsible for protecting crews, practical experience matters.

Leading Edge Safety President and CEO Brent E. Smith has more than three decades of experience across construction, manufacturing, product development and workplace safety. He has worked as an installer, fabricator, superintendent, estimator and project manager for firsthand knowledge of the job site and the decisions behind safe work.

That perspective shaped the original Raptor mobile fall protection concept and continues to influence how Leading Edge Safety approaches product development. Listen to the people doing the work. Understand their challenges. Then build fall protection equipment around real-world needs.
