Zero Tolerance for
Ladder Incidents.
PowerCor, Ergon Energy, and Energex are among Australia's leading power utilities that use Lock Jaw Ladder Grip to protect their field crews working at height every day. When you're near live electrical infrastructure, ladder stability is critical.
WHS Act 2011 & Electricity Safety Act — Electrical utility work is subject to the highest working-at-height obligations under Australian WHS legislation. Lock Jaw Ladder Grip provides a documented, verifiable ladder stabilisation control for every PowerCor, Ergon, and Energex field deployment.
Powering Safer Crews.
Every Deployment.
PowerCor (Victoria), Ergon Energy (Queensland), and Energex (South-East Queensland) are among Australia's power distributors that have adopted Lock Jaw Ladder Grip as part of their field crew safety programs. A VP of Safety has publicly credited Lock Jaw with saving thousands in workers' compensation claims.
Meter & Service Access
Ergon Energy and Energex field technicians access residential and commercial meters, switchboards, and service entries across Queensland daily. Lock Jaw keeps every placement secure with both hands free for the work.
Low-Voltage Line Maintenance
PowerCor field crews accessing LV lines on building facades and eaves near live conductors require absolutely stable ladder placement. Lock Jaw clamps in 5 seconds and eliminates lateral movement.
Substation & Building Access
Accessing switchrooms, transformer enclosures, and substation structures. Lock Jaw provides the stability required for safe working near HV equipment on external ladder access points.
Storm & Outage Restoration
During Queensland storm outage restoration, Energex and Ergon crews work under pressure to restore supply. Lock Jaw keeps safety standards high even under time pressure.
Why Australian Power Utilities
Choose Lock Jaw
Reduces WorkCover Claims
PowerCor, Ergon, and Energex face significant regulatory and financial exposure from ladder incidents. Lock Jaw directly reduces this risk on every field deployment.
High-Grade Nylon Construction
Non-metallic clamp body — critical for use near live electrical infrastructure. High-grade glass-filled nylon is tough, UV-resistant, and electrically safe.
Solo Technician Safe
Many power company field callouts are one-person deployments. Lock Jaw removes the primary hazard of an unsecured ladder with no second person.
Saves Thousands in Claims
A VP of Safety confirmed on LinkedIn that Lock Jaw Ladder Grip saved thousands in workers' compensation claims and was a game changer for their organisation.
Fleet Standardisation
Simple enough to standardise across an entire field fleet. Every technician uses it the same way — consistent safety outcomes across PowerCor, Ergon, and Energex teams.

Lock Jaw fits directly into your Safe Work Method Statement as a practical, verifiable control for ladder hazards under WHS Regulation 306.
WHS Compliance for Power Companies
Australian electrical utility work is subject to the WHS Act 2011, WHS Regulations, and jurisdiction-specific Electricity Safety Acts. Ladder safety under WHS Regulation 306 applies in full.
