What is fall arrest safety netting?
Fall arrest safety netting is a flexible system fitted below work areas to catch a person or tools if a fall happens, reducing injury by absorbing energy and preventing ground impact.
Nets are made from tough, knotless polypropylene with border ropes and certified anchors, installed with the correct sag to work properly. They protect the larger zones than individual harness lines and allow teams to move freely while staying safe.
Trained riggers, like us, install, tag, and inspect the nets regularly to keep the protection compliant, with standards met throughout.
Safety Netting Services
Our safety netting services cover survey, design, hire, delivery, and skilled installation with certified anchors and correct sag. We add perimeter nets and edge protection where needed, keeping routes clear for work below. After fitting these nets, we inspect them, tag them, and certify that they are safe for use, then provide scheduled rechecks, fast repairs, safe removal, and tidy collection as standard.
Safety net design and planning
We design safety net systems that match your site, assessing fall risks, trades, and programme so coverage, mesh type, and support spacing are correct.
Our planners review drawings, access routes, edge conditions, and wind exposure, produce layouts, method statements, and notes, coordinating project dates with other works to prevent clashes.
Safety net installation
Safety net installation is carried out by trained riggers who arrive with equipment, secure anchor points, and access, then build each bay in sequence so protection grows with the structure.
They tension and clip meshes, fit tags, tidy fixings, and hand over the area after completing proper checks and adjustments.
Perimeter netting
Perimeter netting creates a protective curtain around active edges so people and materials remain within the footprint, and areas stay safe.
We select mesh size, support steel, and fixing centres to suit height and wind, plan corners and returns, and maintain access points for site deliveries, emergency routes, and cranes.
Edge protection systems
Edge protection systems combine guardrails, toe-boards, and debris control with safety nets so trades can work confidently near exposed edges without delay.
We design posts, ties, and clamping methods to suit the structure, integrate gates and bridging sections, and maintain lift heights that match the programme while keeping sightlines open.
Net inspection and certification
Every safety net is inspected by a competent person who checks mesh condition, border rope, knots, anchor strength, and sag, recording any corrective actions and confirming the installation meets standards.
We issue a handover certificate and site tag, schedule periodic rechecks, and store all records to support audits and insurance.
Net removal and collection
When protection is no longer needed, our team plans a removal sequence that keeps people clear, removes loads safely, and protects finished surfaces.
Nets are slackened, unclipped, and lowered, then counted, cleaned, and packed for reuse or repair. We clear tools and fixings, load out, and leave the site tidy.
Edge protection and add ons
Edge protection combines guardrails, toe-boards, and mesh barriers with safety nets to create safe working zones around open sides, roof lines, and voids, while keeping access routes clear for deliveries and trades.
Useful add-ons include debris netting for small items, brick guards, ladder gates, loading bay gates, stair towers, and temporary walkways that improve flow.
We can fit fan platforms, scaffold alarms, warning signs, and low-glare lighting to guide people in low light. All components are designed, installed, and inspected together, giving a simple, reliable system for daily site use.
Hire Construction Safety Netting
Hire construction safety netting from our team when work at height needs fast, reliable protection for people above and below. Nets cover wide areas, absorb energy in a fall, and help teams move and work without clipping on and off lines, which keeps tasks productive while staying safe.
The mesh also catches small tools and debris, reducing hazards for anyone passing underneath and limiting damage to materials or finished surfaces.
Professional design and fit mean anchors, spans, and sag are correct, so the system performs as tested and meets current standards. A small bay or single frame can often be installed within two to four hours, depending on access and ground. Larger spans or complex layouts usually take about half a day to a full day.
