Rope Access Services

What Exactly is Rope Access?

Rope Access is a safe method of working at height utilising rope systems and associated equipment. It employs the same climbing equipment found in mountaineering, rock climbing, and abseiling, offering versatile applications with minimal setup requirements. This service has become one of our signature offerings, particularly valued by clients requiring difficult access cleaning, repairs, and inspections.

How Rope Access Can Reduce Costs Compared to Scaffolding

Scaffolding is often a costly and time-consuming aspect of repair or maintenance projects. Rope access provides a cost-effective and efficient alternative. Unlike scaffolding, which requires extensive setup and dismantling time, rope access offers a quicker and more affordable solution. Moreover, it eliminates daily hiring charges associated with scaffolding, making it a more economical option, especially for large-scale restoration projects.

Cladding Repairs and Replacement Using Rope Access

In Scotland, numerous residential and industrial buildings utilise cladding systems. Given the challenging access nature of building cladding, rope access systems offer an ideal solution for repairs or replacements.
