(Helpful Guide) Safety Lifting Gear in the Construction Industry

Posted in: Latest News

Safety first! Here at LGH we always make safety lifting gear a priority. We understand the challenges and dangers of a construction site in the 21st century – we’ve been working in the industry for nearly 50 years.

Every product that LGH supplies is rigorously safety-tested in line with the guidelines from the Leading Edge Services (LEEA) in the UK. The LEEA is a great source of advice for anyone working in construction.

At LGH, our team can advise you on safety issues. We also lease some fantastic safety lifting gear at affordable prices:

Harnesses, lifelines and lanyards


When working with heights, it’s important to keep your team safe from falls. LGH have a selection of harnesses available, ranging from basic body harnesses to more advanced harnesses that include shock absorbers and fall indicators (such as the PBH14 ) which allow the wearer to be suspended for a long period of time.

Coupled with these harnesses, you will need some kind of anchor or davit. Our lifelines and anchors are portable but strong, and our man-riding davits are powerful counter-weighted constructions, suitable for any job.

Gas detection


We understand the risks of working with the danger of toxic gas fumes . We supply gas monitors to quickly detect any particles of gas in the working environment. We also have the fantastic Drager Saver CF Escape Set . The Drager Saver CF is a small portable pouch which contains a lifesaving mask and hood capable of providing a 10 minute supply of air in the case of an emergency. It’s widely recognised as the best in the business.

So be safe on your construction site – choose the best equipment for the job and if you need any further advise on safety, please talk to our team .
