Fall Protection & Inspection

Whenever there is a risk of falling during work at height – for example on flat roofs, on facades, during maintenance work on technical systems, or when accessing hard-to-reach parts of a building. Legal requirements (including DGUV, TRBS) mandate appropriate protective measures.

These include single anchor points, cable safety systems, rail systems, or collective protection such as guardrails and safety nets. The choice depends on the property, its use and the frequency of the work.

Planning and installation should only be carried out by qualified specialists familiar with current standards and regulations – this ensures all safety-relevant and legal requirements are met.

Regular maintenance and inspection of the systems, complete documentation, and making sure all users receive proper instruction. This is the only way to ensure lasting safety and to be on the safe side in the event of a claim.

As a general guide, an annual inspection by a competent person is required, though depending on usage intensity and manufacturer specifications this may need to be more frequent. A maintenance contract lets you fix the schedule in advance instead of having to coordinate the appointment anew every year.

You receive an inspection report with a specific description of the defects and a recommended course of action. Minor defects can often be fixed during the same appointment; for larger repairs, I discuss them with you in advance before any further costs arise.

Yes – for property management companies and businesses with multiple properties, I bundle inspection appointments into a single framework contract with one dedicated contact and one invoice, instead of coordinating each property separately.

In the case of urgent need – for example a damaged anchor point ahead of upcoming roof work – I try to arrange an appointment at short notice. It's best to call so I can assess the urgency directly.
