Why Us?
Working at height comes with inherent risks, and ensuring the safety of your employees is crucial. At A2M Safety, we provide industry-leading fall arrest systems to safeguard workers in environments where there is a risk of falling from height. Whether you're in construction, roofing, or manufacturing, our solutions are designed to meet your specific needs while ensuring full compliance with UK safety regulations.
Fall arrest systems are essential for preventing falls in workplaces where employees are exposed to heights. These systems are designed to safely stop a fall after it has occurred, preventing the worker from hitting the ground or other lower levels. Whether you need permanent or temporary fall arrest systems, A2M Safety has you covered with solutions tailored for your industry.
Why are Fall Arrest Systems Critical for Height Safety?
Falls from height remain one of the leading causes of workplace fatalities and injuries. A properly installed fall arrest system significantly reduces these risks by providing workers with a secure way to work at height. UK regulations, such as the Work at Height Regulations 2005, require businesses to implement appropriate safety measures to protect workers, and A2M Safety ensures that your business is fully compliant.
Personal Fall Arrest Systems (PFAS)
Our personal fall arrest systems are designed for individual workers who need mobility and flexibility while working at height. These systems typically consist of a full-body harness, a connecting lanyard, and a secure anchorage point. We work with you to create a customised solution that provides the freedom to work while ensuring maximum protection in the event of a fall.
Collective Fall Arrest Systems
For group protection, we offer collective fall arrest systems, such as safety netting and free-standing guardrails. These systems provide broader coverage, reducing the risk of falls for multiple workers on a site. Collective systems are ideal for construction sites, roofs, or other areas where multiple personnel are working at height.
Permanent and Temporary Systems
Whether you need a long-term solution for a facility or a temporary system for a specific project, A2M Safety can install both permanent and temporary fall arrest systems. Permanent solutions, such as fixed lifeline systems or roof edge protection, are ideal for ongoing work at height. Temporary systems can be quickly installed and removed for short-term projects or maintenance work, providing flexibility without compromising on safety.
Anchorage Points
The anchorage point is a critical component of any fall arrest system. It serves as the secure attachment point for the worker’s lifeline or lanyard. We install both fixed and temporary anchorage points, ensuring they meet safety standards and are appropriately positioned to maximise safety.
Harnesses and Lanyards
A full-body harness evenly distributes the force of a fall across the body, minimising injury. We offer a variety of harnesses designed for different types of work at height. Paired with shock-absorbing lanyards, our systems ensure that in the event of a fall, the deceleration forces are kept within safe limits.
Safety Lines and Connectors
Our fall arrest systems include durable lifelines (both horizontal and vertical) and connectors, such as carabiners and snap hooks, which secure workers to their anchor points. These components are rigorously tested to ensure they perform in even the most challenging environments.

Every worksite has unique challenges, and A2M Safety specialises in designing custom fall arrest systems that meet your exact requirements.

After installation, we provide detailed instructions on using the system and conduct on-site training to ensure your staff are confident and secure while working at height.
Ongoing Maintenance and Compliance Checks
Maintaining your fall arrest system is essential to ensure it continues to perform as intended. A2M Safety offers regular inspection and maintenance services to help your business remain compliant with UK safety regulations. Our expert technicians will inspect for wear and tear, ensuring your system is safe, reliable, and up to date.
