The contribution of Temporary Protection toward Health & Safety on Site
The progression of Health & Safety practices in recent years has seen a reduction in accidents and mortalities on construction sites. Through increased awareness and improved working practices the standard of health and safety has improved across most aspects of construction work in areas such as personnel, PPE, tools and equipment.

One of the most common hazards on a building site is tripping, and one of the main culprits are cables not tucked out of the way. Sometimes it’s necessary to have those cables on a work site, so what can be done about them?
We’d like to introduce Skyhook, an amazingly simple way to keep the cables out of the way to prevent tripping or accidental damage.
The versatile Skyhook can be used as a temporary cable support by hooking it over items such as floor joists or ceiling grids, or screwing the support into a strong ceiling surface, or even attaching it to a wall.

This versatile Skyhook is a temporary cable support which keeps leads high off the ground to prevent tripping or electrocution. You can hook the Skyhook over high structures such as floor joists, ceiling grids, or by even screwing the hook into the ceiling or wall.
The Skyhook is manufactured from bright yellow non-conductive material to make they remain seen.
