ERECTASTEP: MODULAR & ROLLING STAIRS AND ACCESS PLATFORMS.

When a food processing customer noticed that their aging wooden rooftop crossover was deteriorating and became a safety hazard for their maintenance workers, they knew a replacement was required, and custom fabrication was expensive and impractical for this rooftop application.

The Ferguson Industrial team partnered with ErectaStep to create a long-lasting, OSHA compliant solution that avoided engineering and custom fabrication. Tired of replacing weathered, rotting boards and the safety risk of their existing access system, a food-processing company was ready for a stable, permanent solution they could count on. Any other product would have required heavy equipment to install, increasing project costs by thousands.

But not with ErectaStep. With 5 modular components that require only simple hand tools to install, our solution saved the customer over $10,000 because it was perfectly suited for non-penetrating rooftop applications, eliminating the need for a crane, special tools, custom welding, or engineering.

In the end, we installed 10 non-penetrating rooftop crossovers and the facility was extremely pleased with the final product and appreciated the significant cost-savings as the result of working with Ferguson Industrial.

When the US Navy examined its liabilities at their Newport News Shipyard submarine and aircraft carrier building facility, existing work platform safety topped the list. In spite of regular, time-consuming employee training, work-related injuries were common. We recommended the ErectaStep G Series, a mobile self-leveling stair platform that virtually eliminated workplace injuries and saved the customer time and money. The ErectaStep solution required no special training to use safely and allowed the operators to work at the correct height in multiple locations using a single platform.
