Personal Escape Kits

Personal Escape Kits, and training, are available for, industrial workers, construction workers, police, fire, military personnel and executives that travel. The kits are designed for individuals to exit safely, simply and very quickly from dangerous situations at height. Military, police and fire personnel use them to leave buildings when normal or original exits are unavailable. Personnel in boom trucks or aerial platforms use them to descend when their vehicle malfunctions. Travellers may use them to leave a hotel room from their window or balcony if necessary. There are many uses for the devices.

Training:

It is recommended that training in their use be undertaken before buying the kits. One manufacturer requires it before a purchase can be made. The kits are not difficult to operate, and most of the descent control devices will stop the rappel automatically, if the user lets go. This is an intentional design feature which makes the units very safe to employ. It also makes exiting simpler and safer. Training is available from Rescue Consulting Canada for all kits sold by RCC.
