Davits & Mounts

Davits and mounts are specialist anchorage systems used to provide safe access when working at height or in confined spaces. A davit is a structural arm, typically made from aluminium or steel, that extends outwards over an opening. It is designed to support fall protection equipment, personnel winches, or self-retracting lifelines. The mount is the fixed or portable base that secures the davit in position.

Davits and mounts are used to create a secure overhead anchor point in locations where a tripod may not be suitable or where a more permanent, robust solution is required.

These systems are commonly used in industries such as utilities, water treatment, telecommunications, construction, manufacturing, and infrastructure maintenance.

We supply davit arms and mounting solutions from Abtech Safety, designed to integrate with winches and fall arrest devices to create a complete access and rescue system.
