The indalex platform ladders are commonly used to access roofs outside commercial buildings and other permanent structures. This is a fairly basic ladder, although there are several things to keep in mind with a stationary steel ladder. The first is preventing unwanted users from reaching the ladder. There are security doors and locking panel options for them to access the stairs.
Another option for this style of ladder is a safety cage. It is mounted on a fixed steel ladder to add security to the user. This prevents the climber from falling down the ladder. Another option is the top walk-through, it provides a handle on the top on each side of the ladder to help the user stay steady while descending the ladder at the top. Another thing to keep in mind when choosing a stair height is that OSHA requires one step off platform to exceed 20 feet or for every 20 feet of climb height. You can order this step off platform at the same time you order fixed steel stairs.
There are many indalex ladders that fall into the category of specialized ladders to accomplish a specific task. One of these stairs is also known as hook top ladder or drop-down ladder. These ladders are made of hooks at the top and look similar to stationary steel ladders. This is the type of ladder when you need to climb a wall or a tank. This enables the user to hook the top and access the work area easily.
