What are the benefits of a Fixed Roof Access Ladder?

Roof access ladders provide continual access up and down the side of your buildings. Not only does this allow for safe transport around the outside of the building, but it also provides points of higher access.

Let’s take a look at some of these benefits in more detail:

Safety

From easy escapes from dangerous internal situations to something solid to hold onto, roof access ladders provide a great deal of safety to your building. Stainless steel handrail installations provide increased safety thus better fall protection.

Access
