Choosing the Right Fixing Point: The Simplest Way to Secure Your Tools at Height

When it comes to working at height, safety isn’t optional – it’s essential. One of the most overlooked but critical aspects of height safety is ensuring that your tool, holsters, and lanyards are properly secured. At Leading Edge, we focus on providing structurally rated and certified fixing points that make it easy, dependable, and compliant with industry regulations to secure your equipment.

Why Fixing Points Matter

Dropped tools rank among the top reasons for injuries and equipment damage on a construction site. Whether it’s a wrench, a drill, or even your tool holster, anything that falls from a height can lead to significant harm. This is why securing tools is an essential component of any fall prevention plan.
