Ladders & Access Systems
Purpose-built and custom-fitted roof access solutions including external ladder systems, internal roof access ladders or stairs and roof hatches
External Ladder Systems
A well-designed fixed external ladder system is cost-efficient, quick to install, and provides a robust, compliant way to access your roof.
- Modular prefab components: built strong, highly compatible, fast to install
- Configurable design: from single-section vertical to multi-section with rest platforms
- Fall protection integrations: ladder cages, vertical static lines or guardrails
Internal Roof Access Ladders
Provide weatherproof roof access (via hatch) from inside the building — ideal for frequent use and restricted spaces.
- Minimal footprint: fold-down or fixed vertical ladders (less space than stairs)
- Managed access: internal ladders restrict use and controls roof access
- Safety features: fall protection (cages, static lines, handrails) part of design
Roof Access Stairs
Where space allows, roof access stairs (leading to a roof hatch or door) provide a safer, more ergonomic and user-friendly access option.
- Ergonomics: wider treads, gentle gradients and handrails make access safer and easier
- User friendly: less physically demanding than ladders, which supports users of varying abilities
- Customisable: configure stairs to space, use U-shaped/switchback layouts for tight footprints
Roof Access Hatches
Roof access hatches provide a weatherproof and secure entry point to the roof, ensuring safe passage for authorised personnel.
- Weatherproof: flashing, insulation and durable materials prevent leaks, heat loss
- Secure access: lockable roof hatches ensure roof entry controlled/restricted
- Compatible: add internal ladders/stairs plus external guardrails for complete system
Temporary Ladder Fixtures
The installation of temporary ladder fixtures (ladder docks or support brackets) will secure your temporary ladder whenever it’s in use.
- Stability – mitigate ladder work risks with a secure ladder
- Flexibility – suitable fixtures available for walls, parapets and gutters
- Upgradeable – install ladder dock with handrails for added safety
