Provide safe access to high level items
Reliable access to high-level items is made easy with folding steps, perfect for various tasks such as reaching high cupboards and shelves in offices or assisting with minor paintwork and wallpaper hanging for trade jobs. Thoughtful design ensures users can effectively approach necessary heights while maintaining both stability and ease of movement.
Constructed from lightweight aluminium, these folding steps with wheels are effortlessly portable, allowing for easy repositioning as required. Available with either 2, 3, or 4 treads, each step features serrated aluminium steps measuring 360mm x 205mm, providing enhanced grip during use. Unlike most industrial platform steps, the sloped angle design accommodates those who may struggle otherwise, ensuring a comfortable range of movement whilst ascending.
Designed for maximum functionality, the folding steps can support a weight capacity of up to 260kg and come certified to BS EN14183 standards for added peace of mind. Additionally, two models (185108 and 185109) include a convenient built-in tool tray, which enables easy access to essential tools and components while working at height.
How to use?
To ensure effective use of the folding steps, follow these guidelines:
Unfold the handrail frame and lock it into place to secure its stability.
Pull apart the legs to create the supportive “A” design necessary for safe use.
To move the steps, tilt the entire frame by grasping the handrail, allowing the rear wheels on the swing-back frame to carry the weight as you glide them into position.
Once finished, these steps can be easily folded away and stored compactly, saving space in the workplace.
Ideal Applications
These folding steps are designed for a variety of practical applications, including:
Offices needing access to high shelves or cupboards.
Trade jobs requiring support for minor repairs such as painting or wallpaper hanging.
Warehouses looking for safe access to stock stored at height.
Workshops that benefit from a handy tool tray for easy access to necessary materials.
