Day-to-day operating brief
What Glazier (High Rise) work looks like in practice
A high-rise glazier installs or replaces façade glass using specialist access and lifting in exposed conditions. The contract should combine glazing competence with rope, cradle or platform authorisation, wind limits, rescue and secure handling above public areas.
Responsibilities reflected in the contract
Verify unit, opening, access and lifting information before high-level work.
Use rope, cradle or platform systems only within current authorisation.
Inspect glass, lifting accessories, tools and weather conditions before movement.
Maintain public exclusions and secure tools and materials against falling.
Install, pack, fix and seal approved units to controlled details.
Record access, lift, unit, seal, inspection and defect information.
A realistic working scenario
A replacement unit is ready to lift when gusts exceed the planned limit and the façade cradle reports a fault. The glazier suspends the operation, secures the unit and waits for access and lifting clearance.
