IRATA rope access
Hello,
How are you? Have you had a good week?
Today id like to share some images of a job on Blackpool Tower.
The above image is obviously not one of mine, but wanted to show how things have changed, and thank god that they have.
The guys in the past had little or no working at height protection.
These days we use advanced techniques such as rope access, to access these hard to reach places safely.
I hope that you have a good weekend.

Hello,
Hope that you are you well.
Today i thought i would show a couple of images of different rope access teams.
The above image, is a team accessing the top of a north sea oil and gas platform flare.
The above image, is a technician abseiling down from working at the top of a leg on a jack up oil and gas platform.
These images may look like fun, but an 80m vertical ladder is not. Ha!
Take care and have a good week.

Hello, id like to share some images from another trip working up Blackpool's tower, repairing the illumination lighting at great height.
Arrived to site early and so I walked the long way there. Was surprised to see early morning council worker cleaning the front.
Ropes set, and decent underway. Always told "don't look down" but you have to in this game.
Today repairs ongoing to the heart light.
Sophisticated control gear, power the lighting on the Tower, helps it to change colour and be programmable.

Thanks for viewing.
