Fixed Ladder Security Options
The Kattsafe fixed ladder system is a sturdy, reliable ladder system suitable for various workplaces. We design our ladder systems to provide a safe option for maneuvering around a job site that permanently attaches to the building. Our ladder systems are also customizable so you can find the perfect safety and security equipment for your operation.
Enhancing your current ladder system can help you get the most out of your investment. Our accessories will protect your ladders when not in use, giving you control over who has access to elevated areas. Please find out how to customize your fixed ladder system with our gear and further protect your workers by exploring our solutions.
Kattsafe Fixed Ladder Accessories
There are various accessories available that complement the ladder systems. These accessories are crafted with the same attention to detail as our entire product line.
We offer three security options for the fixed ladder systems:
Ladder cage lockable gate: This security feature is for use with RL40 Series fixed ladders. Each order includes hinges and a lug kit for easy in-house installation and maintenance. When the ladder is not in use, this lockable gate secures the fixed ladder access door. It consists of sturdy, lightweight aluminum material to last longer.
Ladder access door: The LD426 pairs with all standard fixed ladders. The aluminum door locks in place to prevent access when no one is using the ladder. For non-caged ladders, the access door attaches to the existing ladder frame. You can lock the door for safety reasons and maintain proper ladder usage and procedures. This door includes a handle kit and fixings and is for use with RL30 Series fixed ladders.
Hinged ladder security door: This fixed ladder access door attaches directly to the ladder to prevent unauthorized access. With this Kattsafe security option, you can leave the door open when in use and lock it after, restricting access. This door works perfectly with the ladder fall arrest system.
Each of Kattsafe's fixed ladder security options comes ready to install with your existing ladder system.
The Importance of Ladder Security
Fall protection extends beyond harnesses and attachments. Fall protection practices also ensure that workers can only access elevated areas at certain times. Although fixed ladders integrate with the building and reduce the risks of mobile ladders, they still require security. Security features for fixed ladders prevent outsiders from accessing a potentially dangerous area. Doors can also decrease the risk of injury from ladder misuse.
The primary reasons for ladder security are:
Cost: Workplace injuries can be costly and hinder the project's progress. Ladder security ensures only authorized personnel access certain parts of your building, like rooftops, which protects your roof from human traffic damage, prevents injuries and saves you on repair costs. Investing in a fixed ladder access door or gate can boost your bottom line in the long run.
Safety: Ladders can be dangerous, especially if the user lacks proper training. Ladder doors and lockable gates increase security by preventing inexperienced individuals from using the ladder.
Privacy: If outsiders can access your work site, they can climb ladders and potentially interfere with the construction or renovation process. Having a lockable door in place ensures that certified individuals are the only people with access to the area.
Durability: Lockable gates for fixed ladders increase the ladders' durability by preventing misuse that can damage their components.
Ladder doors, gates and cages can keep your ladder free of obstructions and prevent injury. Find the right accessories to match your Kattsafe fixed ladder and enhance your safety measures. We customize our fixed ladder security options to meet your needs and preferences. You can get an access door or any other solution in the right size to ensure maximum security for your fixed ladders.
