1 Fixed ladders Fixed ladders Fixed ladders are perfect to provide safe and permanent access to buildings, equipment or machines also at great heights, e.g.: + + Ascent for inspection and maintenance work on buildings, machines and shelf systems + + Emergency exits on buildings A modular construction system has been developed to set up customised vertical ladders quickly and easily. Even intricated multisection ladders can be assembled with a time saving up to 30%. The extensive range of accessories offers solutions for a wide range of different requirements given by on-site circumstances. i Please be advised to involve the responsible administration office in your area at the earliest point in time while you are planning the fixed ladder. Fixed ladders with back protection bracket Top exit for fixed ladders including a self-closing safety gate Shaft ladders Our shaft ladders are available in two different widths and are made of various materials depending on intended use, e.g.: + + Providing safe access to sewage treatment plants, drinking water supply plants, waste disposal sites, retention basins and other kind of pits for inspection and maintenance purposes. Our fixed ladder system includes a number of different access aids for safely step-onto and step-off the ladders. Shaft ladders have to be equipped with a holding device at its exists, e.g. holding bars or handles, to ensure a safe step-onto and step-off of the ladder. Our access aids comply with: DIN (Regarding holding devices for entering shafts) Our shaft ladders comply with: DIN EN (Regarding fixed ladders for shafts) Shaft ladder, 1.96 m long Holding bar with double handle

Planning and use + + GP1 = Group of people 1: People with experience in the use of fixed ladders (e.g. technicians) + + GP2 = Group of people 2: People with no experience in the use of fixed ladders (e.g. private individuals) The decision about the height of the single ladder sections and spacings between the rest platforms has to be made under the consideration of the group of people. Climbing height from 5 to 10 m mm 10 m for GP 1 10 m for GP 1 6 m for GP 2 6 m for GP mm to upper edge of rung mm mm mm To bottom edge of back protection bracket mm (1. rung) mm Important - the following requirements apply for: + + Ladders with a climbing height of more than 5 m have to be fitted with back protection brackets if it is structurally possible + + If the climbing height exceeds 10 m, the ladder sections have to be horizontally offset from adjacent sections. Single ladder sections should not be longer than 10 m. + + If it is not possible to offset the ladder sections because of constructural reasons, the ladder can be assembled as a single section exceeding 10 m. In this case, the rest platform has to be replaced with the hinged platform article no for lateral crossovers. + + For sidewise crossovers lower ladder section can be assembled parallel to the upper one in parts + + If the gap dimension at the top exit is more than 75 mm, the ladder has to be fitted with an exit step which has to be ordered separately + + If the ladder s upper exit area does not have any guardrails, the ladder has to be fitted with rails on both sides (see DIN EN ISO )
