And they are useless when the water tank is painted. The extra paint
thickness causes the dimensions to change and the brake

/rail. It had a spring loaded dog that would
engage the notches if you fell. I thought it was a pretty good system.-

They use that type safety(pipe with notches) on most water tanks in my
area.

Brian,
Why would you want to add a safety cable to the cage? I'm on several
legs with the cages and they seem great. I usually just lean back to
take a break while climbing.
It seems like an unnecessary bother, and something else to get in the
way while climbing the ladder. Just curious
What happens when you fall?

No but you could fall down and get so tangled up the rescue would be
difficult. I have climbed caged ladders that had a pipe up the center of
the ladder with small ratchet notches in it. The arrester device was a
pipe

I've used one of those on a water tower.

It hasn't happened yet, but I'm hoping I have the good sense to stick
out an arm or leg and jam myself into the cage. Probably very painful,
but no long lasting damage?
Usually I have a backpack on, and have to climb the ladder more
vertical than normal, just to avoid dragging on the cage.
from the pain. LOL

I think I am most likely to fall when climbing up. Foot slips off
wet-icy rung and I fall forward hitting jaw/face on rung which knocks
me out. It makes it hard to grab something when you are out cold. The
cable sure would make it safer.
