With an impeccable safety record and engineers available nationally for inspections at short notice, Altus Safety is the go-to height safety company whether you’re managing a single location or sites across the UK. We provide fall protection inspections all over the UK from our Northern office in Cheshire and Southern office based in Reading.
We meticulously inspect your fall protection systems to ensure they meet all current standards and are in safe, operational condition. This verification confirms that your systems are ready for your workers to correctly and safely use with their Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).
Our engineers are trained to compliance test a full range of height safety and fall protection equipment including:
We can check a full range of fall protection equipment, including safety harnesses, safety lines, man anchor devices, latchway systems and more. If you have work equipment at your site designed to prevent personal injury and falls from height, then these systems and height safety equipment must be tested at regular intervals as required by regulations (typically every 6 or 12 months depending on the system type – our dedicated account manager will keep track of how regularly your systems need testing and will reach out to you as the time approaches).
These compliance tests must be conducted by a ‘competent person’ – i.e. a professional with all relevant accreditations, insurances and product knowledge. That’s where our team of experienced engineers come in – all of whom have had years of experience working with high profile customers in even the most challenging of sites, giving them the experience they need to deliver a top-rate service every time.
Tests will need to be carried out every 6-12 months depending on the system. For example, dedicated abseil systems require inspection every 6 months. Edge protection equipment such as fixed guardrails, along with other fall protection systems like single point anchors and mansafe systems, typically require inspection every 12 months. Check out individual system inspection information to know how regularly you require maintenance services.

Our approved and experienced engineers are familiar with the full range of fall protection products and manufacturers found in the UK. You can rely on Altus Safety’s expertise in testing every type of fall arrest equipment, including industry-standard systems like MSA Latchways and Mansafe safety lines, ensuring all equipment is fully compliant and ready for safe use when needed.
Following a thorough site visit, we ensure all fall arrest systems are clearly tagged and dated. We provide comprehensive certificates, detailed reports, and any necessary images to complete your fall protection inspection records, giving you full visibility and documentation. We follow strict service level agreements for the supply of visit documentation, ensuring you get everything you need to prove compliance as quickly as possible.
If our inspection identifies any necessary repairs or improvements to your equipment, including Mansafe systems, we provide a clear, easy-to-understand report and estimate. To minimise disruption and cost, should a minor repair be feasible during the initial visit, our engineers will contact you immediately to seek agreement for the work while still on site. This proactive approach aims to prevent costly additional visits and ensures your system is operational much sooner.
Our ultimate goal is to ensure you remain compliant, your people are kept safe, and the integrity of your assets is maintained. We remove the stress and hassle of managing inspection schedules; your dedicated account manager will proactively contact you at least two months before any required inspection date recorded in our database.
We pride ourselves on our 100% height safety record and understand the critical importance of protecting workers from falls whilst working at height. Contact our team today to arrange your expert fall protection testing, inspection, or installation service.
It’s important to have your own inspection regimes on site. Before any fall protection system is used, you should instill in all your workers the importance of checking the system. This should be done before and after every use.
Some key things to look out for include:
loose fixtures
missing parts
obvious signs of damage
vandalism
If a worker finds anything that doesn’t look right, take the system out of action immediately and contact our team. We’ll arrange an inspection visit as soon as possible to address the issue and get your safety system back up and running.
