Equipment
The services we provide will meet your requirements where working at height is unavoidable.
Those planning work at height must: Avoid work at height where they can, use work equipment or other measures to prevent falls where they cannot avoid working at height and where they cannot eliminate the risk of a fall, use work equipment or other measures to minimise the distances and consequences of a fall should one occur.
Every employer should ensure that work at height is:
a) Properly planned
b) Appropriately supervised and
c) Carried out in a safe manner
They must also ensure that planning includes the selection of work equipment in accordance with regulations.
We specialise in installing and maintaining a wide variety of equipment and are happy to provide you with advice on any access solutions you may require.
Examples include:
Guarding against the risk
Ladder Restraints
Prevents ladder slip/fall
Ladder ties and restraints are installed where access via a portable ladder is a permanent requirement. These remove the need for an additional person to secure the ladder and also provide extra safety and security for the operative.
