Everyday we read stories about how people are injured while they were working at height, or we see a story about people who show complete disregard to health and safety regulations which results in putting themselves and others in an incredible amount of danger.

It is important that when you are required to work at height, you do so responsibly, not just for your own safety, but for others too. By following these 3 safety measures you and other around you will remain safe:

Fall Arrest Blocks 

When you are working at height, it is essential that you are protecting yourself and minimising the risks of slips and falls from height. Fall Arrest blocks are a retractable lifeline, generally made from wire rope, which is stored within a case containing an inertia reel.

In the unfortunate event of a fall, the wire rope is pulled out of the block until it reaches critical velocity, which is when the breaking system locks, preventing you from falling any further. Our Fall arrest blocks all have a shock-absorbing system built in preventing you from getting hurt.

Here at SafetyLiftinGear, we sell a variety of Fall Arrest blocks, so when you are purchasing, please ensure you have selected the correct Block for the required task.

Safety Harnesses

When you are working at height, a safety harness most be worn at all times. We know that they are not the most fashionable of accessories, but they are lifesaving.  

If you are working at height, make sure that you are using a harness attached to one of the fall arrest blocks we mentioned above. This will protect you from injury in the off chance you fall whilst working at height.

Here at SafetyLiftinGear we sell a huge variety of safety harnesses, from the basic fall arrest harnesses, through to the more specialist, multipurpose harnesses, insulated harnesses and flame resistant harnesses.

When it comes to purchasing lifting equipment it is tempting to purchase second hand lifting gear to help cut your company costs. While it is understandable why many companies would chose to invest in second hand lifting equipment because it is a lot cheaper than buying brand new equipment, it is not something that we at SafetyLiftinGear recommend.

Even though there is a great deal of reputable second hand lifting equipment dealers out there, there are also a lot of deals who handle substandard equipment. This could mean that you may end up with some untested, unsuitable and above all else, unsafe lifting equipment. This could end up causing damage to machinery or fatal injuries if the equipment fails.  

Here at SafetyLiftinGear we strongly recommend you either buy brand new lifting equipment or hire your lifting gear from a reputable company:

• Hiring your lifting equipment can save you a lot of money.  We know that purchasing lifting equipment can become very expensive. Hiring equipment gives companies the opportunity to obtain a new piece of equipment for a fraction of the cost.
  
  
• When you hire lifting equipment from SafetyLifinGear you can be confident that the history of the item has been regulated. All of our items have been maintained to the highest standards, and if the equipment is damaged, or too old, we will remove it from our stock. Hiring our equipment will help you avoid situations where you find out that the second hand piece of equipment you have purchased is unusable because it has been poorly maintained.   
  
  
• If you are looking to replace a piece of lifting equipment buying new equipment could end up saying you money in the long term.  There is nothing worse purchasing an expensive second hand piece of equipment for it to fail on its third or fourth use, leading you to pay out yet again. You can avoid this extra cost by purchasing your equipment first hand. Sure, it might cost you a little more, but you have the benefit of the equipment lasting years, not months.  
  
  
• When purchasing second hand lifting gear you cannot be certain of its condition. It could look fine on the surface, but there may be something wrong with it that you don’t stop, or doesn't become noticeable until you are using it, by which time it’s too late!  All of our products come tested and certified,  so you can be confident that our lifting equipment will be safe and ready to use when you get it delivered to your site, warehouse or factory.
  
  
• Finally, with many second hand products you will not get a warranty, or if you do it will be for a month. This is not long enough to test the equipment, if you are not using it regularly. So, if you do run into a problem when using it, you often cannot return it, and will have to purchase a new piece of equipment as replacement. When purchasing your items first hand from SafetyLiftinGear we offer a 2 years warranty on most of our products as standard. So if you do encounter an issue you can be confident in the knowledge that we will maintain and replace your items.
