We also offer variable height platform systems, articulating handrails, multi-deck platforms, and more.

These platforms are designed to offer mobility and versatility, enabling technicians to navigate around large vehicles with ease. Equipped with sturdy construction and a range of safety features, mobile access platforms ensure stability and security during maintenance tasks. With adjustable height capabilities and extendable platforms, they accommodate various vehicle sizes and shapes.
Truck access platforms are specifically designed from durable and robust materials like high-strength aluminum so that they can be positioned alongside trucks for the manual loading and unloading of the deck.

Under OSHA’s requirements, all workers must have some form of fall protection while on the beds of the trucks. OSHA requires fall protection for employees who work at elevation, defined as 4 feet per the OSHA 1910 standard for general industry and 6 feet per OSHA 1926 construction standards.
OSHA 29 CFR 1910.23(c): Every open-sided floor or platform four feet above an adjacent floor or ground level shall be guarded by a standard railing on all open sides except where there is entrance to a ramp, stairway or fixed ladder.
