Access Tower & Edge Protection for Industrial Warehouse in Borehamwood, Hertfordshire
Location: Units C-D Elstree Trade Park, Borehamwood Hertfordshire WD61GJ
B-MAT Scaffolding was appointed to provide a safe and compliant access solution at an industrial warehouse unit in Borehamwood, Hertfordshire. The project required a combination of a scaffold access tower and full perimeter edge protection to enable contractors to carry out works safely at roof level.
Given the scale and layout of the warehouse, a carefully planned access system was essential to ensure operatives could reach all required areas efficiently while maintaining strict safety standards. A scaffold access tower was installed to provide secure vertical access, allowing safe movement of personnel and materials between ground and roof level.
Once access was established, edge protection was installed around the roof perimeter, creating a controlled and protected working environment. This allowed contractors to carry out inspection, maintenance, or repair works without reliance on harness-only systems, significantly reducing the risk of falls.
