Confined space access presents unique safety challenges, particularly where workers are required to enter tanks, pits, shafts and other restricted environments. Having correctly designed and installed access and retrieval systems is essential for providing safe entry, exit and emergency retrieval capabilities.
Safe access starts with the right equipment

Confined Space System Inspections & Certification
Regular inspection and maintenance of confined space access equipment is essential to ensure systems remain safe, functional and compliant.
Skyhooks Difficult Access Team provides inspection, testing and certification services for installed confined space access systems, including davit bases, overhead rails, anchor points and associated retrieval equipment.
Our inspections assess equipment condition, installation integrity and compliance with relevant Australian Standards, manufacturer specifications and applicable workplace safety requirements.
Specialised Installation Solutions
Not all confined spaces are the same. Restricted access, limited structural attachment points and challenging site conditions often require specialised installation methods.
With extensive experience in height safety and difficult access environments, Skyhooks Difficult Access Team can assist with the installation of confined space safety systems in challenging locations.
Whether installing a single davit base or a comprehensive overhead rail and retrieval system, our focus is on delivering reliable, practical and compliant access solutions tailored to the site’s requirements.
