Simple Solutions for Complex Access

Safety Fabrications are specialists in the design and fabrication of vertical access ladders; often referred to as Cat ladders. Our access safety ladders are manufactured in both mild steel and aluminium in accordance with BS EN 4211:2005 & A1:2008 and are specifically designed to comply with Health & Safety requirements.

Ascent companionway ladders are designed to suit angles between 60–75 degrees, companionway ladders are deemed easier to ascend than fixed access ladders. We manufacture our companionway ladders in both mild steel galvanised and aluminium in accordance with BS EN 4211:2005 & A1:2008.

Ascent step units provide simple access solutions to complex access issues. We manufacture a range of step units in both mild steel and aluminium to clear obstructions such as pipework, ducting, parapet walls, gutters, cable trays and changes in roof level. The issues we overcome may be complex but our aim has been to create a simple “flat pack” step unit solution.

The Ascent aluminium walkway system is a BS EN 516 compliant open grillage walkway system designed to create a safe walking surface & protection for standing seam , metal profile & flat / single ply membrane roofs. The Ascent walkway can be both levelled & stepped as the roof slope demands.  

The Ascent fall protection covers are designed to afford collective fall protection to workers on / adjacent to fragile surfaces. The Ascent Fall Protection Covers are tested in accordance with ACR(M)001:2004 Test for fragility of Large Element Roofing Assemblies and can be used to protect both fragile roof lights or to protect fragile roof surfaces such as Asbestos roofs.

We specialise in the manufacture of structural anchor posts or fall protection posts as they are commonly called for use with cable based fall protection systems confirming to EN 795 Class C, rail based fall protection systems to EN 795 Class D and abseil access points to BS 7985:2002.
