SANS & OHSA-compliant fall protection
Height safety systems built to pass inspection , not just look the part.
Empire Height Safety Solutions sells, installs, inspects, and certifies fall protection systems built in marine-grade stainless or hot-dip galvanised steel by our fabrication partner, EMFab. Every anchor is pull-tested above 15 kN, and we work nationwide, from Johannesburg and Pretoria to Cape Town and Durban.

Why it matters
Built to a standard, not a guess
A generic fall protection plan does not satisfy Construction Regulation 10, and equipment bought without checking it against the applicable SANS standard is not a safe assumption. Every system is fabricated by our partner company, EMFab, from marine-grade stainless or hot-dip galvanised steel, then pull-tested above 15 kN before we install and certify it, with full test certificates and inspection sheets ready for audit.
