Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is a handy hook used for?
A: The Handy Hook gives your team a practical way to grip and reposition Ground Guards mats without bending or lifting awkwardly. It is particularly useful when laying large areas of ground protection or when mats need to be repositioned during a project.

Q: How does the handy hook work?
A: The hook grips the edge or handle of a Ground Guards mat, allowing one person to drag, lift, or guide the mat into position from a standing posture. This reduces the strain associated with repeated mat handling across large sites.

Q: What other products work with the handy hook?
A: The Handy Hook is part of the Altrad Generation Ground Guards accessory system, which also includes Single Joiners, Double Joiners, and Ground Anchors. Together these accessories support the full installation and management of a ground protection layout.

Q: How many handy hooks do I need on site?
A: One Handy Hook per operative handling mats is the typical approach. For large layouts where multiple team members are working at the same time, providing each person with a hook keeps the installation moving at pace.

Q: Are handy hooks available for hire?
A: Yes. Handy Hooks are available for hire and purchase from Altrad Generation branches across the UK and Ireland. Contact your nearest branch for availability and pricing.
