Required for timber framing above 3 metres in Wellington

WorkSafe NZ requires collective fall protection during the framing phase of new builds where workers are exposed to falls above 3 metres. Safety nets are the industry-standard solution — they protect every worker simultaneously without restricting movement. Every Erect It safety net installation comes with full AS/NZS 4994 compliance documentation.

Safety Nets Hire Wellington — Where They're Used

Safety nets provide collective fall protection across a range of construction and renovation scenarios across Greater Wellington.

Timber Frame New Builds — Wellington

Safety nets are required by WorkSafe NZ during the timber framing phase of new residential and light commercial builds in Wellington where workers are exposed to fall risks above 3 metres.

Roof Framing & Trusses

During roof truss installation, workers are regularly exposed to fall risks. Safety nets provide collective protection that harnesses alone cannot match — and they don't restrict the movement needed for truss work.

Major Renovations Wellington

Extensive Wellington renovations that remove floor or roof structures create temporary fall hazards. Safety nets provide the required protection throughout the open-structure phase.

Commercial Construction Wellington

Multi-level commercial builds across Wellington City require fall protection at every level. Safety nets are an efficient collective protection solution for open-floor commercial construction.

Apartment Block Refurbishments

Wellington's large apartment refurbishment sector creates demand for safety nets during structural alterations, floor removals, and roof replacement projects on multi-storey buildings.

Industrial & Warehouse Access

High-bay warehouse and industrial facility maintenance across Seaview, Miramar, and Petone often requires safety net systems for work at height in large open structures.

How Safety Net Hire Works in Wellington

01

Site Assessment

We assess your Wellington site or work from plans to design the right safety net system for your structure and work type.

02

Installation by Qualified Riggers

Our certified riggers install the nets to AS/NZS 4994 standards before your framing crew starts working at height.

03

Compliant for Duration of Works

Nets remain in place and are periodically inspected throughout the at-height phase of your Wellington project.

04

Removal & Sign-off

Once the at-height work is complete, we remove the system and provide sign-off documentation.

Safety Nets Hire Wellington — Why Choose Collective Protection

Unlike harnesses, which require each worker to actively clip on and limit movement, safety nets provide passive collective protection. Once installed, every worker in the area is protected — without any additional action required from them.

For timber framing and truss installation in Wellington, where workers are constantly moving, climbing, and positioning materials, nets are far more practical than individual harness systems. They also catch falling objects, protecting workers below.

All of Erect It's safety net hire installations across Wellington are carried out by qualified riggers and meet AS/NZS 4994 — the standard required by WorkSafe NZ. Every job comes with full compliance documentation accepted by all Wellington principal contractors.
