Our Guide to Mobile Safety Steps

Choosing the correct mobile steps option to suit your requirements

This can be a complicated task and it is necessary to take several points into consideration including:

• Working height: This isn’t the height of the platform but based on the measurement between waist and shoulders when the user is stood upright on the platform. The working height is provided on each option but may slightly differ from your own. Be sure to ensure that the steps meet your requirements.
• Working Platform: Most of our Commercial and Industrial ranges come with a 400mm deep platform. We may be able to extend this if contacted or offer additional options to suit your requirements.
• Checking Doorways and height restrictions: Can you access the designated working areas when taking the height of the steps into consideration? Doorways, low ceilings, lights, and beams may provide an obstacle.
• Weight Capacity: Are the steps suitable to support both the weight of the user and any materials they may be handling.
• Storage: Do you have sufficient space to store the steps? A more compact option such as the narrow aisle steps may be easier to store. We do not recommend storing your product(s) outside or in freezing temperatures, as although they are water resistant, they are not waterproof. You should always store your product in a clean and dry environment out of the way to prevent damage and subsequently rust.

If you have any other questions or require any guidance, then please get in touch with us and we’ll be happy to help advise you of the best options available.
