Rope Access - Heritage building

rope access heritage building, height safety rail, rope access rail

Problem

This grand, old, heritage listed building required an access rail to be installed for the cleaning and repair of windows as necessitated. Heritage listing often places limitations on changes and additions to structures in order to preserve historical significance and appearance. Unfortunately, this means compliance with current safety codes can be difficult.

Solution

Bomac provided the perfect solution for the client by powder coating the Altrac rail the same colour as the window trim to minimise visual impact. In addition, the long spans achieved by using Altrac meant attachment points to the supporting structure were kept to a minimum.  The solution made minimal impact on the building structure and was almost invisible to the eye.

Outcome

The project was completed meeting the requirements of the heritage listing and enabling compliance with modern safety standards.  Altrac now allows for maintenance and regular cleaning to be undertaken safely so the building can be preserved and enjoyed by future generations.
