Situated atop Wales' highest peak, the visitor centre and café on Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon) attract around 500,000 visitors annually. The centre, perched at 1,085 metres, offers expansive views to Ireland on clear days. The building is engineered to endure harsh mountain weather while blending seamlessly with the natural landscape.
The Challenge:
The unique granite-clad rooftop required a reliable anchor post to ensure safe access for maintenance personnel.
The Solution:
The Ascent™ Fall Protection and Anchor Post was selected for its durable and innovative design. Tested by SATRA to EN 795:2012 standards for both Class A and Class C anchors, these posts comply with BS 8610:2017 requirements. They are intended for use with an anchor point featuring M12 threaded inserts and can be securely attached to a reinforced concrete roof.
Available in sizes from 200 to 800mm, the anchor posts accommodate various roof builds and come with detailed installation instructions. Manufactured in Sheffield to BS EN 1090 CE standards, Ascent™ Anchor Posts guarantee quality and safety.
