Inspections by people who install the equipment
Workplace safety depends on equipment that is checked properly and often. Our engineers combine hands-on installation know-how with inspection experience, so our recommendations reflect current UK regulations and standards, not a generic checklist.
Backed by decades of experience and a team of trained technicians, we serve businesses across the UK from our base in Nottingham.
What we inspect and certify
Fall protection systems
Harnesses, lifelines and fall arrest equipment checked against the relevant British Standards.
Access & egress systems
Ladders, platforms and walkways, so routes onto and around the roof stay safe.
Collective protection
Guardrails, barriers and edge protection confirmed to still provide robust protection.
Anchors & eyebolts
Anchor points and eyebolts tested and recertified at least annually, and every 6 months for rope access anchors and davits (BS 7883:2019).
Personal protective equipment
Harnesses, lanyards and PPE checked for valid CE/UKCA marking and current standards.
Lightning protection
Regular checks to confirm lightning protection systems remain effective.
More than a box-ticking exercise
Inspections are what stand between your business and a preventable accident.
Avoid non-compliance fines
Out-of-date equipment exposes you to fines and legal risk a routine inspection would prevent.
Protect productivity
An incident involving faulty equipment stops work, and downtime costs far more than an inspection.
Boost employee morale
Staff notice when safety is taken seriously.
Protect your assets
Well-maintained systems last longer and delay replacement costs.

Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about Inspection & Certification. Can't see yours? Our team is happy to help.
What safety systems do you inspect and certify?
Fall protection systems, access and egress equipment, collective protection, anchorage devices, PPE and lightning protection systems.
What is the difference between inspection and certification?
Inspection is the physical assessment of equipment to check its condition and compliance. Certification is the formal, documented confirmation issued once it passes — the evidence auditors, clients and insurers ask for.
How often should safety systems be inspected?
Generally at least once a year, though the exact frequency depends on the equipment and the regulations that apply.
What standards do your inspections follow?
UK standards including BS 7883:2019 and BS EN 365.
What qualifications do your inspectors have?
They are experienced technicians with a strong background in safety compliance and system inspection.
What report will I receive?
A full written report on what we found, whether each system is compliant, and any maintenance or corrective work we recommend.
Do you offer maintenance as well?
Yes. We offer ongoing maintenance plans alongside certification to keep systems compliant all year.
What happens if a system fails?
You receive a detailed report of the issues and our recommended corrective actions to bring it back into compliance.
How long is a certificate valid?
Usually one year, though it can vary by equipment type and industry requirements.
