Abseil anchors carry rope access technicians for window cleaning, facade repairs and inspections. They must take high loads and are often fixed to roofs and parapets that have changed since installation.

We inspect each abseil anchor, test it where required and confirm it is suitable for the rope access work carried out from it.
