Big Red Offset Access Cage
When Wolff Onsite were on the lookout for a steel fabricator to produce the UK’s (and Europe’s!) first offset access cage, they came to Assesmont Group Ltd to produce the goods.
A key requirement of any operational construction site is a facility for the safe and speedy transfer of personnel and product to/from areas of the site that may be difficult to reach by other means. Assesmont designed the access cage from scratch, and calculated all counterweight, balancing and lifting requirements. The 4-people carrier unit consists of an extension with sides rising above waist height with a handrail. The harness points are located between the cage and the extension.

Cage Features
- Pockets located at the base of the unit for easy transportation using a forklift
- This product can be customised to meet your specific needs regarding size and lifting capacity
- Features additional lifting points on the side for easier installation of tie brackets to cores below the slipform
- The opening hatch at one end allows easy access for bolting brackets to cores, without the need to work outside
- Consisting of two additional rails at the bottom of the unit to tether tools at working height
- The unit has four bump stops at the end to prevent marking any walls while working
