Rope access systems from Rope Access & Rescue

It uses techniques that were first developed by people doing cave exploration. These techniques have been adopted and adapted for industry. The main difference being the use of a secondary back up rope for added safety. These days however, there are strict guidelines and codes of practice that must be adhered to. Rope Access & Rescue adhere to the guidelines established by the Industrial Rope Access Trade Association. We believe that these are safest in the industry.

Every work situation involving rope access has a pre planned rescue action ready to be carried out at a moments notice if necessary. This is unique to our industry, one of the reasons it is the safest method of working at height. Operatives are all thoroughly trained in rope rescue techniques. We work in small organised teams and plan for all eventualities. We believe a gram of prevention is better than a kilo of cure, and we have a safety record to prove it.

Cost benefits of using rope access can be substantial. Traditional methods require you to pay for an expensive access system, such as scaffolding, stages or cherry pickers. Then on top of that charge you will have to pay for labour to actually do the work in hand. At Rope Access & Rescue we do the whole job for one price with no hidden costs. Our price could be is little as the cost of scaffolding alone!
