QAB Systems Lifting Bracket for 358 Prison Mesh
Product Description
QAB Systems Lifting Bracket for 358 Prison Mesh
358 Prison Mesh, also known as 358 Security Mesh, is recognised worldwide as one of the most secure perimeter fencing systems available. Its welded steel construction offers exceptional strength and resistance to cutting with standard hand tools, while the small mesh apertures make it extremely difficult to climb.
This high-security fencing solution is commonly installed around prisons, airports, military facilities, nuclear sites, data centres, and other locations where maximum perimeter protection is essential.
Designed for High-Security Fencing Projects
One of the key advantages of 358 Prison Mesh is its flexibility. Multiple panels can be stacked to create fencing systems exceeding 6 metres in height, providing an imposing visual deterrent as well as outstanding security.
However, installing and maintaining fencing of this height presents its own challenges. Large mesh panels can be difficult to manoeuvre safely, making specialist lifting equipment essential for efficient installation.
Improving Safety When Working at Height
Working at height remains one of the leading causes of workplace injuries and fatalities. Even falls from relatively low heights can result in serious or life-changing injuries, particularly if a worker lands on their head or neck. Beyond the personal impact, workplace accidents can also lead to costly project delays, financial losses, and reputational damage for businesses.
The QAB System was developed to replace improvised, unrated lifting solutions with professionally engineered equipment that helps installers work safely and in line with current regulations.
Lightweight and easy to transport, the system requires no ground surveys or specialist access equipment, making it a practical alternative to traditional lifting methods.
Compliant Lifting Equipment
The QAB Systems Lifting Bracket is a fully compliant lifting accessory manufactured to BS EN795B standards and features a Safe Working Load (SWL) of 500kg.
Designed specifically for security fencing installation, it allows installers to safely lift heavy 358 Prison Mesh panels into position with greater control and accuracy. When used as a pair, the brackets can also be used to tension fence panels securely to posts during installation.
The bracket is fully compliant with LOLER (Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations), helping contractors meet health and safety requirements while improving productivity on site.
Reduce Installation Time and Panel Damage
Using the QAB Lifting Bracket makes installing heavy mesh fencing quicker, safer, and more efficient. The interlocking two-piece design enables installers to position fence panels accurately while reducing the risk of manual handling injuries and accidental product damage.
The system also supports safe working at height when used as part of the wider QAB bracket range, helping create a safer working environment throughout the installation process.
Easy to Identify on Site
To simplify identification during installation, each QAB bracket is anodised in a different colour. The Lifting Bracket features a bright red finish, allowing it to be quickly distinguished from other accessories within the range.
