Inspection, Testing & Certification
Rope Access Systems Inspection, Testing & Maintenance & Compliance
Regular safety testing of your fall protection equipment is a legal requirement and allows us to monitor the condition of your equipment to improve its longevity.
Class A1 categorised anchor points testing should be conducted in accordance with BS EN795 standards and the testing frequency is increased to every 6 months. These eyebolts and anchor point systems are used for Rope Access purposes and should not be used for lifting of equipment.
Our specialist teams will also conduct inspections to identify any damage and perform preventative maintenance on the system to ensure it’s longevity.

How Often Should Eyebolts be Tested?
It is recommended that eyebolts and single anchor points used for the purpose of Work at Height should be testing once every 12 months and once every 6 months if Class A eyebolts are used for Rope Access.
If your eyebolt and rope access system has not been compliance tested by a competent person within a 12 month period, they should be tagged strictly with ’do not use’ and be taken out of action.
Our compliance team have over 25 years of experience in work at height safety retesting and work with over 450+ companies annually to restest and inspect all aspects of height safety.
Our ultimate goal is to ensure you remain compliant, that your people are safe and the integrity of your assets are maintained. We will remove the stress and hassle of managing inspection and testing dates as our team will contact you at least 2 months prior to any required inspection we have on our database.
This allows us to arrange a mutually convenient date for the site visit and ensures that equipment is always ready for use.
