External Steel Staircases & Access Platforms
Bespoke External Access Solutions for GRP Enclosures, Kiosks & Plant Equipment
We design and manufacture external steel staircases and access platforms to provide safe, compliant access to elevated enclosures, kiosks, and rooftop equipment.
All systems are fully bespoke, developed around your site layout, access requirements, and equipment configuration. Designed for durability in exposed environments, our staircases and platforms can be supplied hot-dip galvanised or C5 paint coated for long-term corrosion resistance.

Designed for External Access
Our staircases and platforms are specifically designed for external applications, ensuring safe and practical access in all conditions.
Typical applications include:
-
Raised equipment and service platforms
Each system is designed to suit the exact access point, height, and surrounding environment.
Fully Bespoke Design
Every staircase and platform is engineered to match your project requirements.
This includes:
-
Platform size and configuration
-
Staircase angle, width, and orientation
-
Landing arrangements and multi-level access
-
Integration with existing structures or new enclosures
We ensure the design works seamlessly with the overall layout, eliminating clashes and simplifying installation.
Compliance & Safety
Safety is a key part of every design. All staircases and platforms are manufactured to meet relevant access and safety standards.
Features can include:
-
Anti-slip treads or grating
-
Handrails and guardrails
-
Kick plates (toe boards)
-
Suitable step geometry for safe access
This ensures reliable and compliant access for maintenance and operational use.
Corrosion Protection Options
All external steelwork is supplied with appropriate protection for the installation environment.
Hot-Dip Galvanised Steel
Provides durable, long-term protection for exposed outdoor conditions.
C5 Paint System
Suitable for aggressive or coastal environments where enhanced corrosion resistance is required.
We can advise on the most suitable finish based on project location and specification.
Integrated with Enclosures & Bases
Our staircases and platforms are designed to integrate with:
By coordinating these elements as part of a single solution, we reduce interface risk and ensure a consistent, well-aligned installation.
Efficient Installation
All systems are prefabricated and delivered ready for installation, helping to reduce time on site.
Benefits include:
-
Faster installation programmes
-
Reduced on-site fabrication
-
Improved accuracy and fit
-
Options for modular or split delivery
This approach supports efficient project delivery, even on constrained or complex sites.
