Rope Access Wind Farm Painting


Here at Dangle Rope Access, we have lots of experience in working on projects of all scopes and sizes, and over the years, we have put our skills to the test working on a wide range of rope access projects, even those of the most complex nature.


As part of a recent project we worked on, we were tasked with providing a coating repair campaign to wind turbine tower sections, which sustained mechanical damage during the installation phase. As a result, a post installation access method was required that needed to be cost effective and of course, cause minimal disruption to our client’s day to day business operations. 


What was the Solution?


After listening carefully to the project brief and our client’s requirements, Dangle mobilised a team of rope access L3's and coating technicians, that included NACE painting inspectors to the site in order to perform the paint repairs to the manufactures specification. Throughout the entire process, we used our expert knowledge of combining rope access and industrial coatings to complete the project to an extremely high standard. 


A clear route to Success!


Dangle, from mob to demob, took control of the entire coating work-scope, from liaising with Hempel A/S, preforming Lock out - Tag outs and blade pinning to documenting all the required stages of quality management. From the moment you get in touch, we go above and beyond to manage every stage of the process, to ensure every project is delivered in a timely manner and in line with your bespoke project requirements. 


Safety and feedback is what drives us to Reach the Unreachable!
