Fixed Ladders & Accessories

Durable, OSHA-Compliant Fixed Ladder Solutions

A-Mezz Industrial Structures offers a full range of fixed ladders designed for safety, strength, and long-term performance. Our OSHA-compliant permanent access ladders are ideal for accessing rooftops, mezzanines, silos, bridges, and more. Whether you need a steel fixed ladder, aluminum ladder, or fiberglass FRP ladder, we provide custom solutions that meet ANSI and OSHA safety standards.

Build for Strength and Safety

Each steel fixed ladder is manufactured from heavy-duty materials and finished with a durable powder coat in 11 color options, including safety yellow, gray, black, beige, and brown. We also offer mill finish aluminum, hot-dip galvanized, fiberglass, and stainless steel ladders for superior corrosion resistance.

 

Build for Strength and Safety

We can tailor your fixed ladder configuration with a variety of accessories and upgrades to accommodate site-specific conditions:

 

• Extended standoff brackets for clearing roof gutters, conduit, or flashing.
• Step-across platforms and parapet crossover rails for high parapets or wide gutters.
• Lockable security rung doors and cage doors to prevent unauthorized ladder access.
• Loose standoff brackets for flexible wall mounting or non-standard surfaces.
• Modular ladder sections (7' or shorter) for tight or difficult installation areas.
• Bolt-on floor mounting brackets to increase ladder stability and load support.
• Oversized side rails for enhanced strength in heavy-duty industrial applications.

• Assembly: Our fixed ladders are heavy duty. Most sizes are one-piece welded construction. Modular option are available for easy transport and assembly.
• Side members: ¼" x 2" x 2" steel angle.

Fixed Ladder with Walk Through Handrails (Series FLW)

Our FW series ladders have a 42" walk through handrail as required by OSHA standards. This ladder would be appropriate for accessing roof tops from the exterior of the building, to access mezzanines and other elevated platforms, docks and can also be used as wall crossover ladders. As with the FLS ladders, the FLW fixed ladders are an uncaged option so they can only be used on climbs of 24' or less without a fall protection system. 

• Same specs as Fixed Ladder (FLS) above with additional handrail feature
• Use: all climbs not terminating at a hatch or manhole opening, and not exiting to the side. 
• Walk Through Handrails: 42" above landing surface. Extends 15-1/4" from ladder rungs.  Made of 1" diameter tubing spaced 24" apart to meet OSHA 1910.23 requirements. 
• Optional "self-supported" rails and step across platforms. 

Fixed Ladder with Safety Cages (Series FLSC)

Our FLSC series fixed ladders are the same as the FLS ladders, only these ladders have a cage installed. They are available for climbs of 11' up to 30'. The ladder cage is also available with a side exit at the top to either the right or left side.

• Same specs as (FLS) fixed ladder with additional safety cage feature
• Usage: Climbing 11' to 30' to a roof hatch, floor hatch, manhole or for ladders requiring a side exit
• Ladder cage is flared at the bottom for easy entry. 
• Side step ladder cage design: Left or right side step exit cage design available at no additional cost.

Fixed Ladder with Walk-Through Handrails & Safety Cages (Series FLWC)

Our FLWC series of fixed ladders have the same 42" walk-through handrail as the FLW ladders, as well as a cage that runs to 42" above the top rung. These access ladders can be used for heights of 8' up to 30' - 24'+ requires a personal fall arrest system to meet OSHA and ANSI standards. They are welded in one piece 10 to 14 rung models and spliced into two or more sections on 15 rung to 30 rung ladders.

• Same specs as Fixed Ladder with additional walk through handrails & safety cage features
• Cage begins 6' 9" from bottom rung

Welded Steel Cage (C)

Our steel fixed ladder cages are designed for use either with our ladders in a bolt on setup or with other existing ladders with a weld on configuration. All you need to know is the existing ladder's height, width and side member construction and we will match the proper cage to it. The welded steel cage is available for ladders with both the walk through handrail and those without.

Although cages are not required by OSHA standards anymore as they have changed to require cable and track systems utilizing harnesses, ladder cages have always been and will still be available as a safety need. Cable systems require the ladder climber to have a harness in order to utilize the safety benefit whereas cages are always in place. Having a cage on your ladder protects the climber regardless to whether or not they brought the additional equipment needed to safely use the other fall protection systems on ladders. 

The prior OSHA standard required cages on all ladders only after the ladder climb was taller than 20', but most of our caged ladders installed incorporated cages at lower heights, so even though the OSHA standards do not require them anymore, we will continue to offer this safety option. 

• Use: To attach to existing fixed ladders up to 20" wide - customized options available. 
• Assembly: Heavy-duty one piece welded. Modular spliced cage sections are also available.
• Standard Lengths: varies from 7'6" to 27'6"
• Custom Length: Cage should begin 7'-8' above floor and extend 42" above landing surface (except when used with hatches)
• Cage Design: Flared at the bottom for easy entry. Designed for OSHA standards
• Welded steel cages are available as a weld on unit, or as a bolt on design to attach to your existing fixed roof ladder (FLS or FLW models)
