Rope Access Inspections by Certified Experts

When it comes to difficult inspections, IIA never leaves our clients hanging.

In cases involving heights or other challenging environments, we call upon our skilled and certified rope access inspectors.

What is Rope Access Inspection?

Rope access is a safe and efficient method of accessing difficult to-reach inspection environments, from bridges and towers to wind turbines and wells. Our certified rope access inspectors skillfully navigate tricky inspection scenarios using a system of ropes to climb, descend or move laterally across the structure or site.

This unique expertise allows the inspector to perform extremely thorough non-destructive testing (NDT) in areas that are normally inaccessible. Compared to other methods, rope access inspections help to minimize costs, downtime, and disruption to site operations.

IIA tests various types of metal, fiberglass, and wood ground ladders between 5 and 45 feet in length, made by various manufacturers.
