The abseiling technique has numerous benefits, rendering it the best choice for window cleaning. The list of benefits is as follows:
With the advancement of building structures, high windows in modern architectural designs can prove difficult and dangerous to access. Abseiling is a safe way to ensure that hard-to-reach building areas are safely accessed using anchor points on the roof.
Thanks to the equipment being fastened to the roof, there are no interferences for building occupants while cleaning is ongoing. In addition, the walkways and building entrances remain clear for regular activities to continue.
The abseiler can move back and forth along a building with no limitations as they clean. The job gets done much faster than if they had to employ machinery from the ground floor.
When we compare the available alternatives to abseiling, such as using a cradle (a system of high-strength cables suspended by affixed pulleys), it is evident that the former is the more affordable option. The reason why abseiling is cheaper than cradle is because it involves fewer machines and a smaller crew. Additionally, not only is cradle equipment costly to install, but it also isn’t as safe as abseiling.
