In industrial settings, ensuring safe access to elevated workspaces is important for the well-being of workers. Large structures such as cooling towers, pumping stations, and tanks require carefully planned installations to facilitate secure access. Let's explore some key solutions that contribute to creating safe working environments at height.

‍

Industrial Access Stairs: Safe Ascents for All Environments

Ensuring workers can reach to high platforms comfortably and securely is crucial. External access stairs, available in materials like mild steel, stainless steel, and GRP, are a versatile solution. Steelway specialises in designing and manufacturing access stairs that seamlessly integrate with existing structures, making access both easy and safe. Bespoke solutions for internal locations are also available, tailored to the unique requirements of each project.

Industrial Access Ladders: Compact and Safety-Focused

When space constraints limit the use of full staircases, access ladders become essential. Safety is paramount, and Steelway offers a range of ladders designed to fit various structures. Vertical access ladders and Ship type/Companionway ladders adhere to the latest British Standards, loadings, and CE compliance. Vertical ladders can be equipped with handholds and safety cages, while companionway ladders feature handrails on both sides.

Industrial Platforms & Walkways: Stability at Every Step

After a successful ascent, the focus shifts to platforms, landings, and walkways. These structures must be stable, secure, and well-designed to ensure the safety of workers at height. Steelway excels in designing supporting steelwork structures with accompanying calculations tailored to specific locations. Environmental and operator safety factors are thoroughly evaluated in every platform and walkway design, guaranteeing customer satisfaction.
