Reach new heights with engineered stair systems

Do your employees have to walk across hazardous rooftops or factory floors with obstructions that can result in a trip and fall? Do they need to reach working heights that are difficult to access or have unique requirements? Are you concerned that a fall from even a short distance could result in an injury that is harmful to the worker and your company’s productivity?

Although two businesses may produce identical products or services, no two facilities are identical. When a stair or walkway built for one company or an off-the-shelf model may not be suitable for you, turn to FlexDecks for an engineered stair system.

From the main floor to the rooftop, FlexDecks engineered stair systems feature anti-slip treads that are self-draining and non-bounce for added safety and stability. They can be fitted with OSHA-compliant guardrails for steps, platforms, and walkways, fitted with total lock casters for station-to-station mobility, and designed at various heights, widths, and lengths to suit your project’s requirements.

If you need a stair or walkway system that does not already exist, FlexDecks will design and build it.

Modular

FlexDecks engineered stair systems are built from pipe-fitted components with steps and platform treads in standard, OSHA-specified sizes. This modular design enables us to engineer stairs—from the simple to the complex—that integrate seamlessly into your workspace. They install quickly without welding or drilling and can be reconfigured if your work-at-height access specifications need to change.

Robust

Constructed of anodized aluminum or galvanized steel for long-lasting strength and corrosion resistance, FlexDecks stair systems are load-tested to guarantee stability and safety during use. They will provide years of trouble-free service even under harsh conditions, such as outdoors or in demanding environments. Powder coating is available for added protection.

Anti-Slip

Every FlexDecks engineered stair system features anti-slip, anti-bounce treads for its steps and platform decks that are self-draining to provide a sure-footed working surface. Treads are offered in aluminum or nylon for strength and corrosion resistance. OSHA-compliant guardrails offer added slip-and-fall protection.

Designed to Your Requirements

Our engineered stair systems can be designed to suit any requirement where off-the-shelf fabricated products are not practical and ladders or towers are inappropriate.

The engineered designs use modular components that allow the stairs to be delivered and assembled quickly and easily with minimal site disruption.

Other Types of Steps & Stairs

Fixed Step

Fixed steps from FlexDecks feature OSHA-compliant, anti-slip treads designed for walking-working surfaces in commercial, institutional, and industrial facilities. They can be used in applications as diverse as the ambulatory stair section of a wheelchair access ramp or a modular rooftop walkway system.

Stepover

Rooftop hazards can include obstacles like piping, conduits, cables, slippery or uneven surfaces, and a change in level. FlexDecks fixed mini-stepovers are a safe way to overcome these obstructions. Easy to assemble and position, they are suitable for all roof types and ground-based or indoor use.

Crossover

Trying to climb over or crawl under these obstacles is dangerous to your people and can damage building services equipment. Crossover platforms from FlexDecks provide a bridge for workers to traverse the rooftop or other areas in your facility safely and more efficiently.

Frequently Asked Questions

Custom stairs are the ideal solution when modular and off-the-shelf options cannot accommodate unique spaces, specific height requirements, or integration with specialized machinery. They are precisely engineered to overcome complex access challenges that standard stair configurations cannot address.

We undertake a comprehensive process that includes advanced 3D modeling, detailed on-site evaluations, and close collaboration with you. Our engineering team carefully designs stairs that accurately align with your specific spatial dimensions, equipment interfaces, and safety requirements, ensuring a seamless and optimal fit.

Our custom stairs are primarily constructed from high-strength 6061 aluminum, chosen for its superior durability and corrosion resistance. The walking surfaces feature 5052 aluminum treads that are anti-slip, self-draining, and engineered for minimal deflection, ensuring reliable grip and long-term performance.

A quick visual inspection before each use is recommended. A detailed monthly inspection focusing on all connections and custom features is advisable, and a qualified professional should perform a comprehensive annual review to ensure ongoing safety and structural integrity.

The most critical safety features for custom stairs are consistent, non-slip treads and continuous handrails on both sides, particularly around turns or landings. Furthermore, the design must seamlessly integrate with your existing space to eliminate potential hazards and comply with all applicable safety codes.

Yes! We specialize in crafting stairs for constrained or unconventional spaces. Our expertise includes navigating around obstacles or matching specific contours to provide safe, efficient access where standard stairs are not viable.

Custom stairs are built for precision, enhanced safety, and superior efficiency. They provide a perfect fit for your specific environment, avoid the inherent compromises of retrofitting standard units, and incorporate tailored safety features, making them a more ergonomic and ultimately cost-effective long-term solution.

We offer end-to-end support. Our services encompass initial consulting, detailed design, professional installation by our trained teams, and ongoing inspections and repairs to ensure your custom stairs remain safe, compliant, and continuously ready for use.
