Confined Space Equipment Hire
Working in enclosed or restricted environments requires the best safety gear and exacting procedures. At Mark One Hire, our confined space equipment hire service gives you access to reliable, professional tools that keep your team safe while complying with regulations. Whether you’re entering tanks, manholes, silos, or underground utility chambers, our range includes gas detectors, tripods, air movers, rescue kits, entry kits, lighting, and more.
We know that confined space work is high risk, so equipment must be dependable. That’s why every item in our inventory is regularly tested, calibrated, and maintained. We also offer specialist confined space training for spaces such as pits, sewers, trenches, flues and chambers – where there is a low to medium risk of serious injury – through Mark One Training centres.
What Is Confined Space Equipment?
Confined space equipment is designed for use in environments where there’s limited access, poor ventilation, or a danger of hazardous atmospheres. These spaces might include basements, pits, tanks, sewers, utility ducts, or silos. Before any entry, you must monitor for toxic gases or lack of oxygen, maintain breathable air, and ensure safe entry and rescue capability.
Our hire range includes confined space entry equipment such as winches and tripods, harness systems, retrieval devices, and escape kits. We also supply tripod hire units and various types of gas detector to monitor oxygen, flammable gases, and toxic chemicals. Lighting and rescue systems complete the setup so you can always work safely and with the confidence that you have the correct tools.
Why Use Confined Space Equipment Hire?
When you need gas detectors for a single task, winches for one job, or full entry kits for a project, our hiring gives you flexibility. You only pay for what you need, when you need it. For companies needing one-off or periodic confined space work, hire is often the more practical, responsible choice.
Renting your confined space gear is often the safest and most cost-effective approach. We handle the strict maintenance requirements, calibration, storage, and inspection — all of which carry liability. With Mark One Hire, you get gear that is verified and ready, with full calibration and safety checks performed to industry standards. You also get gear that is up to date with regulations.
What Tools Can I Hire?
From gas detector and tripod hire to rescue kits and stretchers, you can hire everything you need from Mark One.
- Tripods and Winches: Our confined space entry equipment provides a stable anchor point for confined space access and rescue. Tripods can be used with manual or powered winches to lower or lift personnel and equipment safely.
- Gas Detectors (Single and Multi-Gas Monitors): Detect hazardous atmospheres including low oxygen levels, flammable gases, and toxic substances such as carbon monoxide and hydrogen sulphide. All detectors are fully calibrated before hire.
- Harnesses and Retrieval Systems: Full-body harnesses and fall arrest blocks ensure safe descent and emergency retrieval. Ideal for manhole entry or vertical access situations.
- Escape Sets and Emergency Breathing Apparatus: Short-term air supply systems used for emergency evacuation from contaminated or low-oxygen environments. Supplied with storage bags or cases for rapid deployment.
- Explosion-Proof Lighting: Intrinsically safe lighting units designed for use in hazardous atmospheres, providing clear visibility without risk of ignition.
- Ventilation Fans and Air Movers: Used to circulate fresh air into the confined space or extract harmful fumes, improving air quality and reducing risk during extended works.
- Rescue Kits and Stretchers: Equipment for planned or emergency retrieval of injured workers. Includes rescue stretchers and compatible lifting slings designed for use with tripods.
All equipment is supplied clean, tested, and compliant with confined space regulations. If you’re unsure which items are suitable for your site or task, we can advise you based on your entry type, location, and hazard risk.
