StepSafe

StepSafe is a temporary, self-levelling, site stairway system that provides a quick and safe method of access/ egress to excavations, chambers and tanks or for negotiating slopes and embankments. The system operates in conjunction with Groundforce’s Premier LadderSafe platform and the specific function of the unit is to provide a controlled access to and from the work place, at a fixed point, when conventional ladders are impractical.  

The StepSafe system comprises four main components: Premier LadderSafe Platform, Platform Extension and self levelling steps with hand rails. These will accommodate a range of vertical heights due to the self-levelling articulation of the unit. A forward facing stair mounting is also available; designed for use without a platform extension.

  • Angle of inclination from 25 to 50 degrees

  • Combines with LadderSafe platform system

Applications
