When carrying out work near a live source of electricity such as a power line, it is paramount that you use a non-conductive ladder to minimise the risk of accidental electrocution. This is where SafetyLiftinGear’s Glassfibre Ladders come in!
Besides being suitable for work with electrics, fibreglass ladders have many other advantages over standard aluminium ladders. They tend to weigh less making them easy to move, they are resistant to weathering, don’t absorb moisture, and are warmer to the touch. We have chosen two ladders from our fibreglass range to show you the two different styles we have on offer.
The Lyte GFHP Trade Glassfibre Platform Stepladder
Lyte GFBB Heavy Duty Glassfibre Swingback Stepladder

Being able to provide our customers with new equipment that enables them to not only perform and complete tasks as quickly and easily as possible but in the safest possible way, is always one of our key goals here at SafetyLiftinGear, something we have once again achieved with the inclusion of SQUIDS Power Tool Brackets. These small but very handy attachments allow your power tools to be easily connected to your tool lanyard, enabling you to carry and transport your tools around without any additional hassle.
SQUIDS 3797 Power Tool Bracket Grinder Tool Trap
SQUIDS 3796 Power Tool Bracket Drill and Impact Driver Tool Trap
As most power tools such as grinders, impact drivers and cordless drills do not possess any attachment points whereby you are able to clip them onto a tool lanyard, our range of specially designed brackets are extremely useful in helping workers with the above. Due to these connection points not being readily available, a hazardous environment is created with the risk of accidents being elevated when working at height. The ability to tether your power tools should be part of a wider fall protection plan in order to decrease the risk of dropped objects while working and improving the overall safety of the workplace. Each bracket comes with a number of metric fasteners in order to mount a variety of power tools from leading brands such as DeWalt, Bosch and Makita. You can view a number of these high-quality brackets below.
Installing your new power tool bracket could not be easier! The one-time assembly produces a fast and simple one-step attachment to tether a lanyard to your tools. Simply fasten the included tool bracket and labels onto screw ports intended for accessory belt hooks. Once the required has been applied to the anchor point, you then attach a tool lanyard to the bracket tether point to securely tether your tools. If you do not own a tool lanyard or need a new one, please visit our range of Tool Lanyards here to purchase yours today.
For further information on tethering your power tools using your new tool brackets, watch our instructional video below.

If you have pallets of equipment that require lifting and transporting around your site but are unable to do so because a standard forklift truck simply cannot reach, then a crane fork attachment is exactly what you need!
A crane pallet fork is a suspended piece of equipment that is used to lift pallets in areas of a workplace that a regular forklift cannot and is available in two different forms; manual balancing and automatic balancing, depending on the user’s needs. Manual balancing crane forks require the operator to adjust the hook position on the forks to suit the desired load, ensuring it is lifted correctly and is not dangerously leaning forward, which brings the risk of the load accidentally dropping. Automatic/self-balancing crane forks, on the other hand, require no manual interference to level the load. They do, however, require to carry a load which weighs 20% of the maximum safe working load (SWL) to work correctly and efficiently, e.g. a 2-tonne crane fork must be loaded with a minimum of 400kg. The automatic balancing feature is engaged by a pressurised gas spring once the load is placed onto the forks. The load will always be in the centre of the forks, ensuring safe movement and transport.
Here at SLG, we supply a range of high-quality crane forks, manufactured with the highest quality of steel by Boscaro Italia to ensure both robustness and reliability. Available with SWL’s up to 3-tonnes, these crane forks are self-balancing, so require to intervention when it comes to levelling your loads. As well as automatic balancing, these forks also feature fully adjustable tines from 340mm to 1600mm in width, with a locking mechanism to secure your desired fork position. Each one of our crane forks is also equipped with net-friendly attachments to allow the easy use of safety nets to protect against falling loose items. Compliant to BS EN 13155, our collection of crane pallet forks is fully tested and meet all industry standard requirements.
