Eliminate costly engineering and time-consuming fabrication

With our proprietary configurator, we can build your unique stair or work platform configurations in minutes. By adding the project measurements, we can create pre-engineered shop drawings at no additional cost. You’ll also be able to visualize your project with realistic rendering in real time.

You can be confident your design meets all OSHA requirements without the time and expense of an engineer.

Customizable & reconfigurable

Have a challenging project? – While our modular design can be configured for the most challenging installation, we can also create and fabricate custom components to integrate with our standardized components to meet ANY project requirements.

Repurpose with ease – Because our system is modular, simply unbolt and re-install in a new location. This also means you can easily replace parts without replacing the entire unit.

Modular, customizable, and can be reconfigured with ease

Custom colors and finishes

Custom colors and finishes are available to suit your requirements. Our standard stairs, towers, and platforms are mill finish and our handrails come with durable, powder-coated surfaces, which is much tougher, thicker, and longer-lasting than traditional liquid paint or primers. Zero off-gassing or foul chemical odors, too.

Custom colors available. Safety yellow and mill finish standard.

Installations

Remarkably sturdy and will never rust

While our products are made with aluminum, don’t let that fool you into thinking our product is not durable and stable. Our heavy-duty grade aluminum is as sturdy as traditional steel stairs.

The entire line of ErectaStep products will never rust, warp, or rot. Components are low maintenance and will last much longer than wood or steel.

Quality Manufactured in the United States

Made with industrial grade aluminum

ErectaStep’s modular components bolt together to create infinite configurations, thus eliminating custom fabrication and reducing costs and installation time. Our weather-resistant aluminum products ensure the industry’s longest service life, and can help contribute to various LEED v4.1 credits.

The product added improved safety to my operation, does not take up much room and makes the operators line of sight a lot better.
