The FORTRESS OSHA Stair System provides temporary or permanent access and can be configured to fit many different applications, allowing the flexibility needed to accommodate virtually any layout or lot configuration. Available in two sizes, this durable, aluminum stair system can be used in all weather conditions and is built to take on the rigors of high-traffic use. Also available for the FORTRESS Stair is an optional, easy-to-install canopy for rain, sun, and snow protection.
Features and Benefits:
Canopy
Easy-to-install 96” canopy for overhead protection from the elements. The rust-resistant Canopy features an aluminum frame with a 22-gauge galvanized steel roof. Attaches directly to the FORTRESS Stair, which means no footings or building alterations are needed.
Safety and Durability The FORTRESS is OSHA compliant and exceeds NIOSH lifting recommendations (each major component weighs less than 50 lbs., allowing for safe, one-person installation). With welded construction and 6000 series alloy aluminum, the FORTRESS OSHA Stair System is designed to withstand the rigors of everyday use and harsh weather conditions.
Adjustability and Use Features quick adjustability and fits most applications. The platform and riser legs adjust independently allowing for easy leveling on the job site. The design also allows the stair system to be easily expanded, reconfigured, or moved.
