A fall restraint device for moving on a grid structure including a plurality of grid cells each having a length in a range 600-800 mm and a width in a range 400-600 mm, so defining a grid opening defined by a pair of adjacent tracks of a first set of parallel tracks and a pair of adjacent tracks of a second set of parallel tracks. The fall restraint device includes a frame having an upper portion configured for restraining at least one operative, a moving assembly mounted to a lower portion of the frame, the moving assembly being configured for moving the frame on the grid structure; wherein the frame has a weight less than 100 kg such that the moving assembly will be manually lifted clear of the grid structure by the at least one operative restrained to the upper portion of the frame.

Fall restraint apparatus for a grid framework structure

A storage system is described where goods are stored in containers and the containers are stored in stacks. Above the stacks runs a grid network of tracks on which load handling devices run. The load handling devices take containers from the stacks and deposit then at alternative locations in the stacks or deposit then at stations where goods may be picked out. The containers comprise liners formed from flame retardant or flame suppressant material. Containers comprising liner means are used to store ignitable items within the storage system.
