Man Anchors

A man anchor is a portable fall-arrest anchor point that gives workers a secure attachment for a harness and lanyard when working at height and no guardrail is fitted. Man anchor hire from GAP Hire Solutions offers an easy-to-set-up, eco-friendly alternative to a permanent anchor installation. Also known as man anchor point, fall arrest anchor or roof anchor, it's designed specifically for flat roof work and other situations where a fixed anchor doesn't exist or guardrails can't be installed, giving workers a compliant point to clip onto before they step near an edge. Man anchors are used across roofing, solar and PV installation, and maintenance and access work wherever someone needs to work close to a roof edge, rooflight or fragile surface without a permanent fall-arrest system in place. Roofers, solar installers, and maintenance and access teams hire man anchors because they set up quickly, need no fixings into the roof structure, and keep working-at-height duties under control without holding up the job. GAP Hire Solutions has man anchor hire available nationwide with fast depot delivery.
