Balmore Group delivers industrial-grade Mansafe system installation, certification, and structural testing across Scotland.
Operating out of Glasgow, our specialised height safety division provides completely engineered horizontal and vertical cable systems, anchor nodes, and secure structural tie-ins tailored explicitly for commercial roofs, public facilities, and industrial complexes.
Engineered Horizontal Line Systems & Continuous Lifelines
Our bespoke Mansafe systems are designed to provide continuous, uninterrupted transit across expansive roof scopes. Utilizing specialised, high-grade marine stainless steel components and shock-absorbing anchor pots, these continuous lifeline solutions allow multiple operatives to remain securely attached to a building asset at all times without needing to unclip when traversing intermediate structural supports.
Every infrastructure footprint presents distinct geometry challenges. Our height engineering specialists design tailored alignments that trace the exact perimeter or ridge layout of your building asset, mitigating fall vulnerabilities on modern composite panels, built-up felt systems, standing-seam profiles, and ancient slate structures.
Why Balmore Group is Scotland’s Authority on Mansafe Infrastructure
• Turnkey Asset Delivery: We manage the initial structural engineering calculations, component allocation, physical deployment, and multi-point safety testing.
• Total Building System Integration: Our hardware configurations use specialised toggle fasteners and non-invasive structural plates that preserve the thermal and weather-tight guarantees of your underlying roof membrane.
• Comprehensive Testing Documentation: We deliver structural load validation files, certification tags, and long-term diagnostic paperwork suitable for commercial insurances and regulatory audits.
The Crucial Value of Mandatory Annual Mansafe Testing
Under strict UK regulations, including the Work at Height Regulations 2005 and BS EN 795, horizontal life safety systems must be physically tested, re-certified, and systematically inspected at least once every 12 months. Extreme Scottish winter weather variations, structural settlement movements, and unseen wind vibration fatigue can alter system integrity over time.
Our testing engineers utilise calibrated pull-testers to apply precise physical forces to the end anchors and intermediate brackets, revealing micro-fissures, fastener fatigue, or corrosion inside structural decks. We handle full repairs, swage replacements, cable tensioning re-adjustments, and certification labelling.
