    Essential Height Safety have installed five new Height Safety Systems at our premises to keep workers safe. I was initially impressed with Essential Height Safety’s knowledge and professionalism during the initial audit of our requirements, and their team of installers completed each installation to a very high standard. The handover and training was thorough, which means my workers are confident and competent using the new Height Safety Solution.
