Corrosion-Resistant Stair Replacement for Hazardous Wooden Stair in Cold Storage

Before After

CHALLENGES

  • Employee safety
  • Regulatory compliance
  • Unsafe roof-to-roof access
  • Failing wooden stair system

SOLUTION

Factory Supply engineered and installed a custom stair system to safely bridge the 15’–20’ roof-to-roof gap. The new non-slip, corrosion-resistant stairs replace the deteriorating wooden structure, improving employee safety while providing a long-term access solution designed to align with applicable safety regulations.

Recently, Factory Supply was contacted by Cold Storage Safety Solutions about a 15′-20′ gap from roof to roof, requiring a solution.

The client already had an existing wooden stair solution, which was deteriorating, growing fungus, and showing potential structural compromise. Additionally, the material could attract bees and cause splinters, which was another reason for replacement.

Besides these issues, the existing solution was hazardous and could cause workers to slip and fall on the stairs, making it non-compliant with OSHA standards.

Factory Supply engineered and installed a stair system fastened down with membrane attachment anchors, built from high-quality, lightweight aluminum and steel. This solution is corrosion-resistant, non-slip, and fully compliant with OSHA, CAL/WA OSHA, and ANSI standards, ensuring workplace safety and regulatory adherence.
