Davit systems are essential safety solutions for sites where safe access, lifting, or rescue is required over edges, openings, or restricted entry points. Designed to provide a certified overhead anchorage point, davit systems are widely used in utilities, construction, oil & gas, renewable energy, mining, transportation, industrial maintenance and emergency rescue operations.

Versatile Davit Arm Solutions

A davit system functions as a compact lifting structure, often described as a davit arm crane, capable of manoeuvring personnel or equipment in a controlled and secure manner. Systems can be configured for access, fall arrest, retrieval, or rescue depending on the task and site conditions.

For operations requiring rapid deployment and flexibility, a portable davit arm system offers an ideal solution. These systems can be counterweighted or mounted to structural features, removing the need for permanent ground sockets while maintaining high levels of safety.

Rescue & Retrieval Capability

In high-risk environments, a properly configured davit arm rescue system provides a critical emergency standby, allowing for the safe recovery of workers from confined or elevated locations. When combined with a compatible davit hoist, systems enable controlled lowering and raising, supporting both planned access and emergency evacuation procedures.

These capabilities make davit systems a key element of compliant rescue planning where traditional ladders or fixed access are not suitable.

Designed for Confined Space Operations

Our range includes confined space davit systems specifically engineered for manholes, shafts, tanks, and other restricted entry points. Modular components allow systems to be adapted to different openings, working heights, and load requirements, helping organisations meet safety obligations while maintaining operational efficiency.

Expert Support & Trusted Equipment

Selecting the right davit system depends on access frequency, environment, and the type of work that is being undertaken. Our experienced team can help you configure a solution that aligns with your risk assessment and site demands.

1. What is a removable davit, and where is it used?

A removable davit is a detachable access and safety solution designed for sites that require occasional or repeated maintenance, rescue and confined space entry. It can be installed when needed and removed after use, making it ideal for manholes, chambers, tanks, and service pits, where permanent structures are not suitable.

2. What is a portable davit arm?

A portable davit arm is a lightweight, modular mini crane-like system that provides a certified overhead anchorage point. It is transportable and commonly used for temporary access, confined space access and rescue operations, offering flexibility across multiple sites without the need for fixed installations.

3. What are davit arms used for?

Davit arms are used to support fall protection, personnel lifting, and rescue in vertical access applications. They are frequently deployed in confined spaces where overhead anchorage is required for safe lowering, raising, or retrieval of workers.

4. What types of davit bases are available?

A davit base can be surface-mounted (wall, floor, etc), socket-mounted, counterweighted, or vehicle-mounted. The choice depends on whether the system needs to be permanent, removable, or mobile, as well as ground conditions and load requirements.

5. What is a mobile davit arm?

A mobile davit arm is designed to be repositioned easily across a site, often using a wheeled or counterbalanced base. It allows safe access at multiple locations without fixed anchor points, making it suitable for maintenance, rescue and inspection work.

6. What is a davit lifting arm?

A davit lifting arm provides controlled vertical lifting and lowering of personnel or equipment. It is commonly paired with fall arrest devices or retrieval systems to ensure safe movement in and out of confined spaces.

7. What is a davit arm rescue system?

A davit arm rescue system combines a davit arm with compatible fall protection and rescue equipment to allow rapid recovery of a worker in an emergency. It is an essential part of any confined space rescue plan where fall arrest equipment is in use.

8. What is a davit hoist used for?

A davit hoist is used to raise or lower personnel and equipment through vertical access points. When integrated with a davit system, it enables controlled movement while maintaining compliance with work-at-height and confined space safety requirements.
