Annual system retesting

It is a legislative requirement under BS EN795 & AS1891 which states that in most countries fall protection solutions are tested and re-certified annually by suitably qualified personnel.

As a Latchways approved installer company, Eurosafe Solutions Ltd has a team dedicated to the test and inspection of fall protection systems and associated personal protective equipment (PPE). Our engineers are backed by a dedicated team of office staff who oversee every stage of the contract.

Legislation states the following:

  • Fall protection systems should be tested every 12 months (BS EN 795 & AS1891)
  • PPE should be inspected every 12 months (BS EN 365)
  • Eyebolts should be tested every 12 months (EN 795 & BS 7883)

Eurosafe Solutions Ltd understand the headache involved in meeting this legal obligation and that is why a dedicated team offer a nationwide service which is designed specifically to manage the test and inspection works to your building.

Our proven service includes:

  • Working with you to establish a register of all properties where a Latchways cable based fall protection exists.
  • Establishing a test and inspection regime for these systems.
  • Sending out a reminder to you 2 months prior to the date of inspection, quoting a price for the works.
  • Contacting the individual property manager as the test due date approaches, produce appropriate method statements and risk assessments and attend site in a self contained manner to undertake the works.
  • Issuing test certificate and a detailed report listing any problems and/or defects upon completion of the test and inspection.
  • Repeating this process year upon year.
