ABOUT SKY HEIGHT SAFETY

Twenty years of working at height.

Sky Height Safety is a UK-wide fall protection specialist and a division of Hoists and Cranes UK Limited. Two decades in the field, two regional bases, and the certifications your auditor actually wants to see.

[SYSTEM ID: SHS-ABOUT / REV 01]

Sky Height Safety is a specialist fall protection and roof access contractor, working exclusively on height safety inspection, certification, and installation across the UK. Not a general contractor diversifying into safety work. Not a training provider. Not an equipment retailer.

The business operates as a division of Hoists and Cranes UK Limited, a long-established lifting and access engineering group. Sky Height Safety draws on that engineering heritage but focuses entirely on the work at height side of the business: testing existing height safety systems against current British Standards, certifying them where they pass, and installing new systems where remediation or new infrastructure is required.

Twenty years in the field. One thousand projects completed across commercial, public sector, leisure, higher education, and industrial estates. Two and a half thousand inspections logged with full photographic and written documentation. Two regional bases, in London (66 Paul Street, EC2A 4NA) and at our head office in Shaftesbury, Dorset (Unit 11, Melbury Business Park, SP7 0AF), with engineers covering the whole of mainland UK and Northern Ireland.

The team works to ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO 45001 management systems, and the business is Safe Contractor approved. Every job is delivered against current British Standards, with the same documentation discipline whether the work is an annual inspection of a single eyebolt or the installation of a full mansafe cable line across an industrial campus.
