Work efficient with Rope Access

Using industrial rope access techniques, our teams can quickly and flexibly reach your location for inspection, installation, cleaning, and maintenance. We take care of the entire scope of work and ensure safe and efficient execution from start to finish. Thanks to rope access, scaffolding or aerial work platforms are not required, allowing us to get operational faster and reduce costs. You work with certified professionals who not only excel in their trade, but are also specialized in working at height.

We take care of the entire execution

At Mennens, we are known for our expertise in steel wire ropes and lifting equipment. We apply that same expertise to our services: we carry out the work ourselves.

Where you would normally need to build costly scaffolding or rent cranes, we deploy our specialized teams at height. These are technical professionals—such as inspectors, technicians, and welders—trained to work safely using rope access. You assign the task; we ensure safe execution and delivery.

Work we carry out using rope access

Inspection & NDR

Our inspectors carry out inspections at height and in confined spaces to accurately assess the condition of your assets. This includes visual inspections of steel wire ropes, lifting structures, and infrastructure, supplemented with non-destructive testing such as wall thickness measurements, crack detection, and weld inspections without damaging the material.

Installation, rigging & assembly

Do you need extra hands in a hard-to-reach location? Our technicians carry out (de)installation work without the need for heavy equipment. From steel structures and piping to pulling and securing cables in shafts or masts—everything is performed safely and efficiently. For rigging and lifting, as well as installing or replacing lighting and antennas at height, Mennens is the right partner.

Specialist cleaning services

We carry out cleaning work in locations where ladders or aerial work platforms fall short. From removing dirt and buildup on steel structures to cleaning in tanks and other high or confined spaces, everything is done safely and thoroughly. We also provide streak-free window cleaning at height.

Repair & maintenance

If we identify a defect, we carry out the repair immediately using rope access techniques. From restoring coatings, bolted connections, and seals to certified welding at height, our specialists provide a fast and safe solution without additional downtime.

Telecom & advertising

Telecom works: installation and maintenance of masts and equipment.

Signage installation: safe mounting of banners, illuminated signs, and signage.

Standby Rescue Teams

Is your own staff entering a high-risk area? Hire us as a Standby Rescue Team. We monitor safety and respond immediately if a rescue is required.
