Designed and manufactured exclusively by Hi-Rise, RoofJockey™ is a portable, lightweight needle system designed to provide safe access for industrial abseiling teams working at height.
Constructed from high-strength aircraft-grade aluminium, it provides a rope access attachment point on buildings without pre-existing anchor points. With an outreach that extends over parapets and balustrades, it prevents damage to either the building or the technician’s ropes.
It can also be used as a materials lifting device, which is particularly useful when replacing glass windows, as RoofJockey™ can lift them into position along the exterior face of a building.
