A cherry picker can’t get there. Scaffolding isn’t allowed. The schedule won’t wait.
That’s where we come in.
Most safety netting contractors need ground clearance, MEWP access, or a scaffold to do their job. We don’t.
Every R.A.T Work technician carries dual qualifications - FASET Blue Card for netting competence, IRATA Level 1/2/3 for rope access. That combination means we can safely net areas that standard teams can’t reach:
→ Fragile roofs where walking is unsafe
→ Historic buildings where scaffolding is prohibited
→ Active factories where floor space can’t be cleared
→ High atriums beyond standard MEWP reach (40m+)
→ Tight programmes requiring rapid rig and de-rig
And it’s not just about access, it’s about programme impact.
Rope access teams rig netting 40–60% faster than traditional scaffold methods. Work at ground level carries on while we operate above without getting in the way.
If your project has an area that’s been flagged as difficult to net, or you’ve been quoted a scaffolding solution that doesn’t fit your timeline, it’s worth a quick conversation with us first.
Drop us a message or comment below, we’ll give you a straight answer on whether rope access is the right solution for your job.
