Safety Netting Hire

Flexible Protection for Every Project

Flexible Protection for Every Project

For many projects, hiring safety netting is the most cost-effective way to provide collective fall protection - you get fully compliant, FASET-accredited fall arrest netting installed and inspected for the duration of the work, without the capital outlay of buying a system outright. Red Safety Netting offers short and long-term safety netting hire to BS EN 1263-1 for principal contractors and trades nationwide.

Hire, installed and inspected

Our hire service is not just the net - it is the complete package. We supply compliant System S fall arrest nets, rig them with qualified Safety Net Riggers, inspect and hand them over, carry out the ongoing seven-day inspections, and de-rig at the end. You get a safe, signed-over system for exactly as long as the project needs it.

Why hire from Red Safety Netting

  • Cost-effective for fixed-duration work. Hire suits projects where buying a net system cannot be justified - you pay for the protection while you need it, not beyond.
  • Compliant nets, every time. Our hire fleet is maintained and test-tagged; nets over 12 months old carry a current test tag confirming they still meet energy-absorption requirements.
  • Installed by FASET-accredited riggers. Hire includes rigging by qualified CSCS Safety Net Riggers to BS EN 1263, BS 8411 and FASET guidance - not a self-install kit.
  • Flexible terms. Short-term hire for quick packages or long-term hire for phased and large-scale developments, scaled around your programme.

What our hire service includes

  • Site survey and rig design around your programme
  • Supply of compliant, test-tagged System S fall arrest nets
  • Installation by qualified Safety Net Riggers
  • Handover inspection by a competent person
  • Seven-day re-inspections while work continues above the net
  • De-rig, removal and off-hire on completion

Applications

  • New-build residential and commercial roofing
  • Steel frame and industrial projects
  • Re-roofing and refurbishment
  • Phased developments needing nets over an extended period
  • Short-duration packages where purchase is not justified

Compliance you can evidence

Hiring from an audited FASET member gives a principal contractor the same compliance evidence as any other competent appointment under CDM 2015 and the Work at Height Regulations 2005: qualified riggers, correct installation, valid test tags, and full inspection records throughout the hire. If a hired net arrests a fall it is taken out of service and inspected before further use, and replaced if necessary.
