Product / Davit Access Systems

Bespoke designed and installed davit access systems for safe façade maintenance access and abseiling operations.

Davit Systems for Façade Access

Davit arm systems provide an effective means of façade access offering safe and secure anchorage for abseiling purposes. A typical system comprises of a permanent base that is fixed to the building structural substrate such as concrete or structural steel. A removable rotating Davit arm is then locked in place before use, enabling abseiling operatives to extend safely over the edge of a roof or parapet.

These systems are ideal for use where non-load bearing parapets preclude the use of standard anchor posts, and where obstructions such as overhangs, cornices, glass or architectural details are present.
