Working Safely at Heights with NEN 2484 Inspections from Van Dulst

Ladders, stairs, scaffolding, and other portable climbing equipment are used intensively every day. That is precisely why it is important that this equipment remains safe, stable, and fit for use. Van Dulst Techniek conducts NEN 2484 inspections for portable climbing equipment and helps organizations maintain control over safety, maintenance, and administration.

During a NEN 2484 inspection, our specialists check for damage, wear, deformation, stability, connections, and anti-slip features, among other things. This makes it clear which equipment is safe to use and where repairs or replacement are needed.

More than just inspections

An inspection does not always immediately mean that a ladder or staircase must be rejected and replaced. In many cases, minor defects can be repaired. That is why, during the inspection, we immediately assess whether repair is possible, for example, by replacing feet, caps, spreader guards, or other components.

This extends the service life of usable climbing equipment and prevents unnecessary replacement. At the same time, you keep the workplace safe and organized.

Clear record-keeping and certification

After the inspection is complete, you will receive a well-organized record of all inspected work equipment. This includes inspection reports, inspection statuses, any repair items, and the corresponding certificates.

Approved equipment is affixed with an inspection sticker. Rejected climbing equipment is clearly marked so that it is immediately apparent which items may no longer be used.

Always stay informed via the digital inspection portal

In addition to standard reporting, Van Dulst also offers a digital inspection portal. Through this online environment, you always have access to inspection reports, certificates, and the current status of ladders, stairs, scaffolding, and other work equipment.

With unique identifiers and QR codes, documents can be easily retrieved on the job site. This eliminates the need to search through individual files, emails, or paper reports, and ensures you always have up-to-date inspection records at your fingertips.
