rope access and rescue

Rope Access Rope access or industrial climbing is a form of work positioning, initially developed from techniques where ropes and specialized equipment like Pulleys, Karabiners, Rigging plates are used. By using practical ropework it allows workers to access difficult-to-reach locations without the use of scaffolding, cradles, or an aerial work platform.

Why Rope Access?

Rope Access Equipment, Techniques, and Training can be combined to produce an exceptionally versatile, safe, cost-effective and efficient way to solve vertical access challenges. • Provides access to reach difficult locations. • Quick Installation and dismantling of the system compared to the traditional methods. • Less Manpower requirement. • Rope Access requires far less time spent on site than in preparation for the traditional access method. For example, erection of scaffolding may take longer time than the actual time taken to do the job. • Rope Access technique is extremely safe as compared to the traditional methods. In traditional access methods like erection of scaffolding or cradling, dropping of tools or trips can account for accidents. • When scaffolding is erected to complete work on an existing structure it defaces the structure. It also disturbs those who work inside and walk beside the building. With Rope access technique, no such issue occurs as it does not cause any disturbance to those working inside the building.
