Rope Access

Efficient. Safe. Professional.

ROPE ACCESS BENEFITS
  • Cost savings: Your budget goes straight to the required task – not to access expenses. Scaffold could cost thousands before the work has even started!
  • Time savings: Our crew can mobilise and be in position ready to begin work in a fraction of the time required to arrange and setup an EWP or scaffold. Our team can mobilise and undertake any task with minimal lead-in time. 
  • Safety: The rope access industry holds an excellent record for incurring minimal fatalities and injuries – compared to EWP and scaffold use statistics. The IRATA rope access system ensures all our personnel are trained in using methods and equipment to ensure backup safety systems and redundancy in every instance. Special Access Services have an impeccable safety record and a fully documented work method and safety system.
  • Minimum disruption to the surrounding sit: Our rope crew will eliminate the need to close a busy driveway or car-park for EWP setup. No need to shut-down a factory floor to move plant equipment while you build a scaffold.
  • Versatility: Our crew can be working on the south face of a building in the morning, the north face an hour later or under an overhanging ledge that same afternoon if required! Moving a swing stage or EWP that quickly is just not possible.
  • Reduced management requirements: When you hire SAS we take the project and manage it to completion. We understand that when you hire a subcontractor, you want results, not problems!

At Special Access Services we firmly believe in recruiting the right staff. It is not enough to simply supply people who can abseil into position! All too often in this industry we see cheap casuals who are unskilled in practical work. We rise above our competition as we only employ capable and proficient tradesmen who can perform the required tasks to a high standard.

We pride ourselves on our service, high work ethic and ability to deliver results on time and budget. Call us today to discuss how we can help on your next hard-access project!
