We're lucky to have had some pretty mild weather during the past few days, but if the very beginning of December is anything to go by, we should be expecting quite a few sub-zero temperatures this winter. This is particularly bad news for those of us who work in cold workshops, or other areas without adequate heating systems, as it often means layering up to the extent that you look more like a Game of Thrones extra as opposed to a tradesperson! 

Luckily, help is at hand, in the form of our effective and affordable range of workshop heaters, with fan and infrared options available, depending on your needs. Whether you're just looking for a quick way to warm up the workplace on a cold morning, or you're looking for a more permanent solution to give cold-walled areas a boost, our heaters are a great way to provide a reliable and efficient heating system, that can easily be tailored to suit your changing requirements.

If you're looking for a chain that will meet the exact requirements and conditions of your operation, then you're sure to find the solution you need amongst our comprehensive selection of chains; all of which come in a great range of sizes. 

From heavy duty lifting applications, to area marking and crowd management, our chains are designed to provide the strength, durability and flexibility needed for each individual task. While all our chains are able to be used in a variety of operations, the chains we provide can be divided into two specific types, in order to aid the decision of those placing the order:

Lifting Chains
The term 'lifting chains' refers to the heavy-duty chains in our selection, which are made from steel, and are suitable for use in heavy lifting, towing, or load binding applications. These range from grade 80-100, and come in a choice of length/weight specifications, which should be considered carefully before placing your order.

Barrier Chains
Our barrier chain reels also come in a selection of lengths, as well as a variety of material finishes, in order to suit many environmental and operational demands. While they are most commonly used as part of barrier systems for crowd segregation, car parks and other applications of this nature, they can also perform an assortment of other low-duty functions, such as suspending signs and light fittings.

When performing work tasks or rescue operations in confined spaces, operations can be complicated by narrow exit and entry ways, making safe retrieval more difficult. Confined Spaces Regulations 1997, state that you must have sufficient precautions in place to protect your workers when performing operations in limited access areas, which makes confined space equipment an essential element for working safely and legally. 

Here at SafetyLiftinGear, we provide a wide range of confined space equipment, which covers all aspects of safe rescue and retrieval operations. Here are just some of the products we provide:

We have a great selection of rescue tripods as part of our confined space range, all of which are adjustable, secure, and easy to transport.

The use of a high-quality safety harness is a vital element of confined space rescue, and should provide both security and comfort. At SafetyLiftinGear, we stock a specially designed safety harness that is designed to compliment our range of confined space rescue equipment. It has a variety of anchor points for versatile attachment, and also comes in a choice of sizes for an accurate fit.

For those who require a complete confined space rescue system, we provide a choice of confined space kits, which contain a variety of items from our full range. These kits contain rescue and recovery devices which cover all aspects of confined space safety, allowing you to act efficiently in the event of an emergency.
