An easy to install custom work platform for HVAC

HVAC systems require regular inspections and servicing. An HVAC work platform is essential because repairs and routine maintenance generate constant rooftop traffic for your team and HVAC contractors. If your HVAC unit is located on the roof, you must also consider OSHA-compliant fall protection and other critical safety elements.

Rooftop Work Can Be Dangerous – But It Doesn’t Have to Be

This installation photo demonstrates why an elevated work platform is necessary for safe access to the inner elements of rooftop HVAC units. Multiple roof levels and elevation changes required an ErectaStep stair system, a spacious work platform, and comprehensive fall protection.

This Company Needed Rooftop Safety That Included Fall Protection

This modular, bolt-together solution delivers these key benefits for your company and HVAC contractors:

  • Safe access between roof levels
  • Unobstructed crossover from one roof section to a work platform
  • Spacious work platform for workers and heavy equipment
  • Industry-leading fall protection, including guardrails, handrails, and non-slip surfaces

Whenever anyone needs rooftop access, OSHA-approved fall protection must be in place. OSHA consistently identifies falls as the leading cause of workplace injury and lost time. Access to rooftop HVAC units should never rely on a fixed, “one size fits all” system. Improvised solutions cannot provide the all-weather, OSHA-compliant protection that ErectaStep systems deliver.

The Benefits for Your Company Are Substantial

ErectaStep’s modular components provide unmatched strength, durability, weather resistance, and fall protection:

  • Every component is engineered and manufactured in the USA.
  • Industrial-grade metal construction ensures strength and OSHA compliance right out of the box.
  • Platforms and stairs feature a stamped-in, non-slip surface – no tape or sandpaper that wears out.
  • Handrails and guardrails are tall, safety yellow, and powder-coated for long-lasting durability and visibility.

The solution shown in this photo was designed using ErectaStep’s configurator tool. You can create a customized stair and platform system in minutes, tailored to your facility’s unique requirements. All necessary components are in stock and ready to ship, so you can install your solution as soon as tomorrow.

Is It Easy to Install? Yes!

Most ErectaStep systems can be installed by a small crew in just a few hours, with minimal disruption to your workflow. No special tools, welding, or cranes are required, and all components are lightweight enough to move with a hand truck. ErectaStep delivers robust, instant solutions for work areas that require safe, OSHA-compliant access.
