Building owners and engineers throughout the APAC Region trust our facade inspection expertise to protect their people and property. Our experienced technicians conduct thorough visual inspections, load testing, and detailed assessments of Building Maintenance Units (BMUs), davit systems, and other critical components. From new construction to retrofit projects, every system is reviewed for full code compliance and height safety.
As trusted facade access consultants, Facade Access Solutions provides inspection and advisory services that help building owners and facility managers operate safely while remaining fully compliant with applicable local and regional regulations.
Our BMU inspection programs follow leading regional standards to help BMUs operate safely and efficiently. By working with a competent person and certified inspection providers, building owners reduce risk, maintain regulatory compliance, and create a secure environment for work at height.
Our routine inspections align with applicable local safety codes and project timelines, reducing the risk of costly delays and minimizing disruption to building operations.
Annual, periodic facade inspection and visual review routines are critical for responsible building maintenance. Routine inspections confirm that facade access systems and access equipment continue to perform safely and effectively across the full perimeter of the building. For building owners, these inspections offer benefits beyond simple compliance. They help prevent unexpected repairs, protect critical assets, and provide a reliable record of code adherence for height safety equipment.
With accurate inspection data, facility managers can plan building maintenance confidently and maintain safe, continuous operations. This supports safer facade maintenance, fewer disruptions, and long-term system reliability. For a related overview, see our guide on suspended scaffolding safety.
Load testing is a safety critical step that confirms facade access systems and fall protection equipment can operate safely under real working conditions. Our inspection, safety and compliance services include load testing and performance verification for BMUs, davits, suspended access equipment, and related BMU systems to help meet applicable local and international regulatory standards.
Building owners often face the challenge of balancing compliance requirements, budget constraints, and operational continuity. A failed BMU inspection or overlooked regulation can interrupt maintenance and increase liability. This is where our experience makes a difference.
As APAC facade access consultants, we go beyond compliance to identify potential facade issues before they affect building operations. Our team understands how access systems integrate with roofs, mechanical structures, and building facades. This allows us to detect issues early, document observations, and recommend practical, cost-effective access solutions for permanent access.
Wherever you operate, Facade Access Solutions supports building owners, property managers, and contractors with dependable BMU inspection services that keep projects and people safe. Read our guide on BMU refurbishment vs. full replacement for related decision making guidance.
Every inspection matters. Keep your facade access systems compliant, safe, and reliable across projects of any size.
A Building Maintenance Unit inspection involves a comprehensive evaluation of mechanical and electrical components, including the hoist, motors, control systems, and safety brakes. Our technicians verify the Safe working load (SWL) and confirm that the facade access equipment operates according to the original manufacturer specifications and applicable local compliance requirements. Facade Access Solutions conducts these assessments to help your systems meet relevant safety and regulatory requirements for height safety certification.
To help meet applicable local and international safety standards and compliance deadlines, facade access systems should undergo a height safety inspection at least once a year. Depending on usage and environmental factors, additional periodic facade inspection and checks of your height safety system may be necessary. Consistent monitoring helps prevent equipment failure, supports safe access across the full perimeter, and is a critical step in the height safety recertification process. For regional frameworks, see our codes, regulations and standards page.
Yes. We specialize in evaluating aging building maintenance equipment and can provide a height safety consultation to determine if your current setup requires a facade access retrofit. We help building owners modernize their permanent access systems to help them remain safe and compliant with current APAC regional standards.
Following the evaluation of your facade access solutions, we provide a detailed report documenting the condition of your height safety anchor points, static line, and rope access system. This documentation serves as a formal record of regulatory compliance, detailing any necessary repairs or maintenance required to uphold your height safety system integrity.
