Working Safely at Heights
Work on roofs and other locations with a risk of falling requires reliable fall protection. To continue ensuring that safety, it is important that the system be inspected regularly.
Normec conducts independent inspections of lifelines and assesses whether the system is still safe to use. This ensures that your fall protection system meets current requirements and remains safe for use.
Inspections of Lifeline Systems
During the inspection, our specialists assess the condition and functionality of the entire safety system. We examine not only the lifeline itself but also the anchor points and the accompanying documentation.
Depending on the installation, we check the following, among other things:
- The overall condition of the lifeline system
- Anchorage points and connections
- Visible wear, damage, or corrosion
- The correct installation of the system
- The available documentation
- The safe operability of the installation
After the inspection, you will receive a report detailing the findings and any areas of concern.
Greater peace of mind for owners and building managers
Lifelines are an essential part of a safe working environment at height. Regular inspections help identify defects in a timely manner and ensure that maintenance and inspection work can be carried out safely.
An inspection by Normec helps you:
- Increase the safety of employees and contractors
- Gain insight into the condition of the safety system
- Identify defects in a timely manner
- Comply with applicable management and maintenance requirements

The correct documentation for a comprehensive assessment
For an efficient inspection, it is important that the relevant documentation is available. Depending on the installation, we may request, among other things:
- The report from previous lifeline tests
- The declaration of conformity for the components used
- The most recent maintenance or inspection report
This allows our inspectors to carefully assess the installation and accurately record the inspection results.
