Why Many Sites Struggle with Height Safety

Height work is heavily regulated, and poorly designed access systems create unnecessary risk, delays and cost. Many buildings lack compliant anchors, clear access routes or suitable fall protection, making even simple tasks difficult and unsafe.

Without the right systems and trained technicians, businesses face safety breaches, operational disruption and long-term compliance issues.

Common Challenges:

  • Insufficient or outdated anchor points
  • Lack of compliant fall protection systems
  • High access costs from traditional elevated equipment
  • Limited reach into elevated or confined areas
  • Unsafe work practices risking injury or shutdowns

SKILLS

Rope access, anchor installation, height safety systems, certification

We completed full anchor installation, testing and certification for a new Raptor Rail height safety system at Mistry Tower. The building required a compliant, permanent access solution for ongoing façade maintenance and inspection work across multiple elevations.

Our team designed the access plan, installed the Raptor Rail system, and completed full load testing and certification to AS/NZS standards. Rope access allowed us to install anchors safely across difficult and elevated areas while keeping the building fully operational.

The completed system now provides a secure, long-term fall protection solution for contractors and facility managers, ensuring safe and efficient access for all future maintenance tasks.
