Manufacturing Platform Access Steps

Scope 

We designed and built a set of platform access steps on wheels with handles in 2 different sizes to meet our customer’s specific needs for safety, mobility, and ease of use. Frames constructed from steel with aluminium chequer plate steps, and powder coated in yellow and white to the customer’s request.

These are useful in many industries such as automotive, aerospace, energy, rail, warehousing etc where easy access is required for maintenance or manufacture.
Access steps can be custom designed for your exact requirements and can include such features as locking wheels, access gates, extended platform areas, options to tether / lock onto another structure to prevent movement whilst in use.

Key Benefits of platform access steps:

1. Improved Accessibility: The steps provide a safe and stable way for operators or maintenance personnel to access elevated areas, equipment, or platforms.

2. Mobility: By incorporating wheels, the steps can be easily moved and repositioned as needed, making them ideal for dynamic work environments or where access is required in multiple locations.

3. Enhanced Safety: The handles offer additional support and balance for users while ascending or descending, reducing the risk of slips, trips, and falls.

4. Custom Fit: The steps were tailored to match the customer’s specific height and space requirements, ensuring seamless integration into their operations.

5. Efficiency: Quick and easy access helps reduce downtime and improves overall workflow, especially in settings where frequent access is necessary.
