Lug Proof & Anchor Point Load Testing – Height Safety & Lifting Compliance

At Safe Lifting Australia, we provide certified proof load testing for both lifting lugs and height safety anchor points. Whether you need a lifting lug verified for heavy loads, or a roof anchor point certified for fall protection, our technicians ensure compliance with relevant Australian Standards.

Why Load Testing is Critical

Load testing confirms the structural integrity and safe working capacity of lifting and safety points before they are used. This reduces the risk of structural failure and ensures compliance for inspections, audits, and safety management systems.

All proof load tests are to Australian Standards or Standard as directed by the client and supported by our inspection, commissioning and servicing capabilities.
