PivotLoc Ladders to enable discrete access for maintenance to 340 Deansgate

Safety at Height working closely with specialist installers HRS Services have provided an integral fall arrest PivotLoc^® ladder system to a prestigious new office building in Central Manchester.

PivotLoc is a foldable ladder system with incorporated GlideLoc^® fall protection rail which offers a cost effective and safe solution. With its unique and award winning design, the ladder can be closed when not in use thus preventing unauthorised access.
PivotLoc not only provided a discrete and secure solution but the system also fitted in perfectly with the aesthetic appearance of the building.

Project Architect, Albert Sutton commented:
"What we wanted was a safe means of access to the upper roof area by positioning abseil rails that did not detract from the appearance of the façade. The PivotLoc ladders fulfilled this requirement as they fully close and lock when not in use".

Andy Russell, Managing Director of main contractor, Russell Construction added:
"This is the first time we have used PivotLoc. It offered a neat, safe and discreet solution for our client The Building Alliance Group".
