Your Local Sydney Roof Access Hatch Installers
A roof access hatch allows easy and safe access to a building's roof through the ceiling and the outer roof. An access hatch is particularly effective on high roofs, allowing a worker to access the roof inside the ceiling. Some buildings are located in places that make ladder access to the roof difficult or dangerously risky. By accessing from the inside, the risk of falling is significantly reduced.
Falls from ladders cause many deaths every year, so eliminating long ladders is always the safest choice. (See Falls from Ladder Statistics)
We install a 'safe path' from the ceiling to the roof access hatch so workers cannot fall through the ceiling or be electrocuted by exposed wiring. They are, therefore, safe at all times, and it limits workers causing any damage to the surroundings.
When installed as part of a Safe Roof Access System, an access point will be located within one metre of the harness so the user can attach it before climbing onto the roof.
More anchor points are placed within regulated safe distances to enable access to the entire roof area.
Many roof hatches are available, including ones with a clear dome to allow light into the ceiling space and Colorbond colours to match your roof or gutters.
Our Roof Access Hatches will not leak, and feature:
- Double skin Zinc-Aluminium
- Twin gas struts for easy opening
- Insulated lid
- Lockable hasp for security.

At Sydney Anchor Points, we are committed to using only the highest-quality products from the industry's leading manufacturers. Every component of each roof safety system has been extensively researched, tested, and re-tested to ensure that it will provide the highest level of safety and confidence.
Our roof access hatches are robust, lightweight and easy to install.
To install roof access hatches, an installer must possess valid industry licenses and comply with all relevant OHS regulations and legislation. Each Sydney Anchor Points team member has undertaken extensive training to ensure they can safely and professionally install even the most complex height safety systems.
Our sleek roof access hatches blend in with the roof surface while still having an extremely durable construction. Our licensed installers use innovative flashings and installation techniques to ensure the hatch is entirely watertight and provides maximum functionality and ease of use.

How do roof access hatches improve safety? They eliminate the need for external ladders, reducing the risk of falls. Combined with height safety systems like anchor points and fall protection equipment, they ensure a secure environment for anyone working on the roof.

At Sydney Anchor Points, our products and installations meet stringent Australian safety standards, ensuring that your building remains compliant. Our anchor points are designed to provide 360-degree coverage, ensuring maximum safety with fewer anchor points. Each anchor is tested to withstand forces between 15-21 kN and is rated for use by two workers, complying with the AS/NZS1891.4 standard. This makes our systems ideal for maintaining a secure and compliant roof access environment, no matter the complexity of the roof structure.
How can I ensure my roof access system remains compliant? Regular inspections and certifications are necessary to keep your roof access system compliant with safety regulations. Sydney Anchor Points offers anchor point certification and roof safety system certifications to ensure ongoing safety and compliance.
