[Patent Pending/Registered Design]

Used for horizontal surface applications, most commonly at the slab edge.

The three points of support allow accurate installation on an uneven surface and ensure that the anchor load is correctly controlled. The Multi Foot can be through fitted using a variety of anchors appropriate to the base material. The geometry of the Multi Foot ensures safe operation even if the anchor has been misaligned, and the long front foot ensures the minimum edge distance is maintained.




[Patent Pending/ Registered Design]


The Multi Foot can be fitted to the structural slab before the finishing screed is laid, and it is then protected by the Cast-in Tray. The Cast-in Tray permits a screed of up to 50mm to be poured around the Multi Foot, leaving access for easy removal and even re-use of the Cast-in Tray.

Once the Multi Foot has been removed, and the Cast-in Tray pulled out of the screed, the small void can be filled.







COMBISAFE is using its award winning Safety Net Fan for the first time in Scotland, on the Glasgow Harbour developments on the River Clyde.

The GH20 luxury apartments are being built by developer Dandara.

The Safety Net Fans were chosen by Site Manager Angus McDonald for two simple reasons; ease of use and innovation. Angus


said "I'm always looking for innovative ways to make the job easier, safer and quicker. As we had to crane pre-fabricated bathroom pods into position, we needed a system that could be easily moved without hindering the site, the workers or reducing the site's safety. By using COMBISAFE's Safety Net Fans, we were not only able to do this, the sleek design created a bigger gap for the pod to be manoeurved into place."
