Fall Prevention Systems
Proactive Safety for High-Risk Work
Globe Cambridge provide a full range of fall prevention systems to help protect workers operating at height. Designed to stop falls before they happen, our solutions support construction firms, roofing contractors, and maintenance teams in meeting their safety responsibilities—while ensuring projects stay on time and on budget.
Whether you’re working on a temporary scaffold platform, a rooftop, or a commercial development, we’ll help you choose and install the right protection to reduce risk and ensure full compliance.
The Difference Between Fall Prevention and Fall Arrest
Fall prevention systems are designed to stop a fall from occurring in the first place—whereas fall arrest systems (like safety nets or harnesses) catch a worker after a fall has already begun.
As a result, fall prevention is the first and preferred line of defence in construction safety. It includes measures that eliminate the risk of falling altogether or physically block access to the hazard.
Our Fall Prevention Solutions Include:
- Edge protection systems – Guardrails installed at roof edges, scaffold perimeters, and openings
- Roof guardrail systems – Permanent or temporary barriers for flat and sloped roofs
- Access tower platforms with built-in safety rails
- Toe boards and debris containment barriers
- Custom fall prevention for complex or confined sites
Compliant, Certified, and Fully Installed
All our fall prevention systems meet or exceed UK Work at Height Regulations 2005 and are installed by experienced, fully trained professionals. We work with clients across Cambridgeshire to design systems that are safe, practical, and site-specific.
