Self-retracting lifelines arrest a fall in far less distance than a lanyard, which is what makes fall protection possible where there isn't 18 feet below the anchor — but a leading-edge model is the only kind rated for a strap over an edge. Horizontal lifelines are the temporary anchorage where the building offers none.
Before you choose
A 6 ft lanyard needs roughly 18 ft below the anchor once free fall, deceleration, harness stretch and the worker’s own height are added up. Most places don’t have it. Work the clearance out first.

Distance to the floor, where the anchor can go, and what the work involves. If there isn't room to arrest a fall we'll say so and look at restraint or a rail system instead.
