Fall protection & access solutions.

Engineered, installed and certified by manufacturer-approved teams — UK-wide.

About.

Fall protection is the engineered safety infrastructure that lets people work at height with confidence — the lifelines, anchors, guardrails and access systems that turn an exposed roof or facade into a controlled working environment. Done properly, it's designed around the building and the people who use it, never bolted on as an afterthought.

Apex Access Group's fall protection division is engineering-first. Established in 2016 and based in the heart of the Peak District, our teams design, install and certify systems UK-wide — every one sized to the structure, the user pattern and the regulatory standard before a single fixing goes in. Manufacturer-approved installers, in-house design and an annual inspection programme keep each system compliant for the life of the building. One accountable team, from first survey to recertification.

Core Services.

Solutions.

Fall Protection

Engineered fall arrest and restraint systems — mansafe horizontal lifelines, anchor points and guardrails. Designed, installed and certified to BS EN and HSE standards.

More on fall protection →

Single point anchors

Tested single-point anchors for fall arrest, restraint and rope-access tie-back — fixed at engineered positions on roofs, plant and structures.

Horizontal lifelines

Continuous BS EN 795 Class C mansafe lifelines — Latchways, Kee Line, MSA and other approved systems for routine and frequent rooftop or facade access.

Vertical lifelines

BS EN 353-1 vertical fall-arrest systems on facades, towers, masts and ladder runs.

Overhead fall protection

Arrest systems that protect from above — production lines, loading bays, vehicle and tanker tops, and maintenance bays where edge protection can't reach.

Rail systems

Rigid-rail fall-arrest track for overhead and horizontal use — hands-free traverse and high load tolerance where a wire system isn't suitable.

Fixed guardrails

Permanent, mechanically-fixed edge protection to roof edges, walkways and plant platforms — collective protection needing no user PPE or training.

Freestanding guardrails

Counter-weighted, non-penetrative guardrail systems for membrane and asphalt roofs — collective edge protection without fixings into the structure.

Rooftop Access

Physical access infrastructure for safe, routine work on roofs — cat ladders, walkways, step-overs and access platforms.

More on rooftop access →

Fixed ladders

BS EN ISO 14122-compliant galvanised, stainless and aluminium cat ladders with cages, lifelines and rest platforms for safe vertical roof access.

Walkways

GRP and aluminium walkway systems creating defined, slip-resistant routes across roofs and around plant.

Step-over units

Bridges and step-over platforms for crossing service runs, parapets and changes in roof level.

Facade Access

Specialist facade access systems — abseil rails, davit arm cradles and fixed anchors. Designed, installed and certified for safe ongoing maintenance and cleaning at height.

More on facade access →

Abseil rails

Continuous BS EN 795 Class D facade-mounted rails providing certified attachment points for rope-access teams.

Davit arm systems

Pivoting davit arms for cradle and operator suspension over facades — fixed and portable variants.

Abseil anchors

Discrete BS EN 795 Class A fixed anchors engineered for rope-access teams to descend and traverse facades safely.

Suspended cradles

Suspended access cradles and platforms for facade maintenance, working off davit arms or monorail tracks — for tasks better suited to a powered platform than rope access.
