DavitPro Systems for Façade Access

DavitPro is designed to suit most building types, including commercial offices, residential towers, hotels, hospitals, and industrial buildings. The modular system can adapt to flat roofs, parapets, green roofs, and complex layouts. Our engineers assess your building and recommend the right configuration.

Bases: Fixed socket locations and the perimeter with portable arms repositioned as needed.
Rail: Continuous perimeter coverage for fully glazed facades
Anchors: Structural anchorage where low-level bases are impractical

The right option depends on your façade coverage requirements and roof constraints.

Yes. Surface-mounted bases allow DavitPro to be installed on existing concrete or steel structures, subject to structural assessment and fixing calculations.

DavitPro provides permanent, engineered façade access without the recurring costs or visual impact of scaffolding or MEWPS. Compared to BMUs or cradles, it has lower capital cost and minimal mechanical maintenance. It also eliminates reliance on temporary anchorage.

A visual check should be carried out before use. A detailed inspection is required every 12 months in accordance with LOLER and BS 8610. Maintenance is generally limited to inspection, cleaning, and replacement of wear components where necessary.

DavitPro is designed to be low-profile and architecturally discreet. Only the stainless steel sockets remain visible, and these can be powder coated to match the building. Arms are stored off-site when not in use.

DavitPro installations typically fall under Building Regulations (Part A - Structure), CDM 2105, and the Working at Height Regulations 2005. Structural calculations and compliance documentation as part of the design process.

Installation time depends on system type and building size. Surface-mounted bases typically take a few hours per location, while full perimeter systems may take several days. Programmes are planned to minimise disruption.

Yes, provided operatives hold appropriate rope access qualifications (such as IRATA certification). DavitPro is designed specifically for professional rope access use.

DavitPro is modular. Additional bases or rail sections can be added, and existing configurations adapted, subject to structural review.

DavitPro arms incorporate integrated rollers at deviation points to prevent rope contact with metal edges. This reduces abrasion risk and extends rope service life.

Yes, when specifically designed and certified for two-user configurations (21kN rating per BS 8610). This must be confirmed in your installation documentation.

DavitPro requires adequate structural substrate strength. Concrete, structural steel and suitable reinforced roof structures are typically acceptable, subject to engineering assessment. Where substrates are inadequate, alternative solutions may be engineered.
