Platforms

Lightweight platforms, walkways and ramps complete with handrails, ladders and stairs built and installed to your exact requirements and to British Standards (BS5359) by our own skilled craftsmen. A complete CAD / design and build service for our platforms, walkways and ramps is available complimented by a project management service if required for larger projects. We are a small company but specialise in complicated fabrications and installations sometimes under the most extreme conditions. We are frequently used by other companies who are unable or unwilling to carry out such projects.

The pictures below are a few examples of our work. No project is too small. Detailed information for certain projects can be found in Case Studies.

Design

We are able to supply 2D and 3D drawings accompanied by structural calculations where required using    the latest CAD technology.  
 
This large platform was built and installed around an acid filtration plant for a Cumbrian company. The platform has an access ladder, safety gate, gratings and handrails all round. All components are corrosion resistant fibreglass and all fixings are stainless steel.   This very large stairway was built and installed for Caterpillar at their North East manufacturing plant. The platform was built on the ground in three managable sections and then hoisted into position with a crane. At the top of the stairway there is a 120 metre long roof walkway.
 
This stairway and platform was built for Metrolink in Manchester to gain access for train maintenance. Handrails, ladders and stairs can be built in either Yellow or Grey. A cage was also built at the top of the stairs for added safety.   This platform was installed around a set of tanks. The platform is one in a series of platforms built to enable access to the tanks. This type of platform can be installed at any height to suit your individual requirements.
  Ramps can be built and installed to just about any size. Ramps are built to British Standards and conform to current building regulations. Ramps are an ideal solution for wheelchair access for factories, schools, home and office. This particular ramp is still under construction in our workshop and was eventually installed at a power station in the south of England.
     
  This is a set of 4 small access stairs / platforms. The platforms are on wheels to enable them to be moved around at will. The wheels are all lockable.
Access platform for maintenence on cargo ship. This picture is taken from deep within the cargo hold. The access platform was built in our workshop in easily managable sections. The access platform was then rebuilt inside the hold.
