Access Equipment

When using access equipment, it's important to check that the surface supports the load. Workers can be in danger if a surface doesn't support them or their access equipment and when working from heights, extra protection such as safety harnesses should be considered.

Industrial Access Equipment

Access equipment is used in many different industries, but most commonly in construction where safe access to heights and remote areas is necessary. One of the main purposes of access equipment is to keep workers safe from serious injury. Falls from height are the key cause of fatal accidents in the workplace.

An equipment platform is a freestanding structure, often used for additional storage or to provide access points to equipment or systems. These differ from mezzanines since they are not considered a permanent part of the building, such as a balcony in a theater.
