Rope Access Services
Rope Access Trade Solutions
Rope Access can be used in combination with conventional access methods (such as Mobile Elevated Working Platforms, Suspended Access Platforms and Fall Arrest Safety Equipment), or complement our integrated multiservice package. Our Rope Access technicians can provide such means to reach otherwise inaccessible locations where traditional access is not an option due to limitations and restrictions onsite. We are fully certified by IRATA and have an excellent safety record.

Benefits Of Rope Access Over Other Methods
Rope Access Trade Solutions
- Discreet compared to other traditional methods.
- Minimal disruption at ground level which allows other contractors to carry out their works without being restricted.
- Quick installation and dismantling of equipment and materials (saving client cost and time).
- Lower security risks – equipment used for rope access is dismantled at the end of shift compared to scaffolding where the access equipment may have to stay up during the work scope.
- Cost-effective – As stated, rope access services are very economical. Fewer personnel can accomplish more tasks sooner which translates to minimal downtime, increased production, and increased profits for our clients.
- Versatility – Our IRATA certified rope access technicians can apply technical rope access techniques to a wide variety of environments; from confined space scopes, to complicated structural steel installations.
- Environmentally friendly – Rope access techniques leave a minimal footprint on the surrounding environment compared to traditional methods. We don’t require petrol, oil, or electricity to access even the highest or tightest areas.
- Fast & Efficient – Rope access systems are established and dismantled very quickly compared to traditional access methods. Less interference with other facility operations means less disruptions, minimised downtime, and a safer work environment for all personnel.
- Safety – Our IRATA certified rope access technicians uphold an exceptional safety record which has resulted in our work being classed as one of the safest in the whole construction industry. We place a high focus on the identification and implementation of dropped object controls, safe systems of work, rope access rescue plans and other procedures to maintain our incident & injury free status. We don’t compromise safety!
- Reduced Man Hours – When comparing rope access to traditional access methods, the man hours required to complete the same task are significantly reduced.
- Superior Access – Rope access systems can be quickly established to reach almost any area you could imagine. This is impossible with other traditional access methods. Rope access methods can be used to access structures or areas that would not otherwise be possible to reach via conventional methods. The internals of industrial chimneys & smokestacks, domed roofs, and ducting all require maintenance at some point in time of which rope access is the preferred method.
- Flexibility – Greater flexibility and rescheduling can be achieved using rope access. A change in weather conditions or changing work priorities can be easily accommodated with rope access. The hire and transportation of traditional access equipment such as Elevated Work Platforms (EWP’s) or scaffold can quickly become a logistical or financial nightmare if work priorities change at short notice.
