Frequently asked questions
What is a scaffold ladder gate?
A scaffold ladder gate, or ladder access gate, is a crucial safety feature designed to secure the entry points to scaffolding structures and to prevent falls. These gates are spring-loaded to ensure they close automatically, providing a continuous barrier against fall risks. They are an essential component for maintaining safety standards in construction, renovation and industrial projects.
How is a ladder trap door used?
A ladder trap door is integrated into the scaffolding platform to provide safe and secure access through the scaffolding. It operates vertically, offering a sturdy and reliable solution to access different levels of a scaffold structure safely. Our ladder trap doors are designed for ease of use and to minimise potential trip hazards, ensuring a safer work environment.
Can scaffold ladder gates and ladder trap doors be used outdoors?
Absolutely. Both our scaffold ladder access gates and ladder trap doors are constructed from materials that withstand harsh weather conditions, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. Their durability and resistance to elements like high winds, rain and snow make them an ideal choice for any construction or renovation project.
How do you maintain scaffold ladder gates and ladder trap doors?
Maintaining these safety features involves regular inspections to ensure they function correctly and remain in good condition. Check for any signs of wear and tear, ensure that gates and doors close securely, and that all moving parts are intact. Occasional lubrication and cleaning of moving parts can extend their lifespan and maintain their functionality.
