Frequently Asked Questions

What is façade access asset management?

Facade access asset management is a complete lifecycle approach that keeps building maintenance units (BMUs), davits, monorails, and other access systems safe, compliant, and operational. It includes design, installation, inspections, ongoing maintenance, repairs, and system upgrades. This helps property owners and facility managers safeguard their investment and avoid unnecessary downtime.

Why is asset management important for building maintenance units and facade access systems?

Proactive asset management extends the lifespan of facade access equipment, minimizes unexpected failures, and maintains compliance with safety standards such as EN 1808 and OSHA regulations. Regular oversight improves reliable performance, improves safety, and delivers cost-efficient outcomes for building owners and contractors.

What types of suspended access equipment are included in your asset management programs?

Our programs cover a full range of facade access systems, including building maintenance units (BMUs), monorail systems, gantries, powered platforms, and davit systems. We also manage fall arrest systems and tiebacks and lifelines. We manage and maintain equipment supplied by Tractel, Manntech, and CoxGomyl, keeping every system safe, compliant, and reliable.

Do you provide inspections and preventive maintenance for BMUs and existing facade access systems?

Yes. Facade Access Solutions provides inspections, safety, and compliance services, preventive maintenance, and repairs for existing systems, whether installed by us or other manufacturers. Each service is performed by certified technicians and follows local safety standards for continuous compliance and safety assurance.

How can asset management services reduce downtime and risk?

Regular inspections and planned maintenance help detect potential issues early, preventing breakdowns and safety risks. This proactive process reduces emergency repair costs, minimizes equipment downtime, and provides seamless access for building operations. It also supports asset lifecycle optimization by identifying when refurbishment or retrofit services may be more cost-effective than ongoing repairs.
