Mobile Safety Steps - Budget 4 Step Ladder

Our budget range of mobile steps is still just as heavy duty as our standard ladder range. The structure is identical, we have simply removed a few features to lower the cost. The small front wheels and lever brake have been replaced with simple “wheel barrow” style handles to move the steps around. The kick plate around the top platform has also been removed.

This range of budget mobile steps is ideal for sporadic and occasional use, eg accessing archive files, periodic plant inspection, or changing light bulbs! If intended for regular use in a warehouse, your staff won’t appreciate the repeated lifting to move them, especially on the bigger mobile steps!

The mobile ladder is fitted with our industrial hi-grip step as standard and safety operating sticker. We can offer the ladder in a wider step width of 850mm, or any custom size as required.

Mobile steps are painted as standard, or can be galvanized.

Standard White Nylon Wheels

As standard, our mobile safety steps are fitted with 200mm dia white nylon wheels at the back and 100mm polyurethane wheels housed in swivel castors at the front.

These wheels are hard wearing and robust to give a long life, with each rated to 150kg.

Optional Rubber Wheels

As an optional extra, we can fit rubber tyred wheels. These are the same size and of a similar load rating to the nylon wheels. Rubber has the advantage of being quieter when being rolled and slightly easier to push. They cannot though easily be skidded sideways.

Optional Extras

Warehouse Step Gates

A safety gate can be mounted at the base of the mobile steps to deter unauthorised use. The gate rotates through 270 degrees and fastens when open against the side of the mobile ladder.

Safety Steps Standard Paint Finish

As standard, our mobile safety steps come painted, using a one coat primer/finish - Zinfos 700CT. This gives good adhesion to the steel with the primer for a long and robust life, and smart finished appearance with a 70% gloss level.

Safety Steps Galvanized Finish

As an optional extra, we are able to offer a galvanized mobile step finish. The galvanized mobile step is dip coated as a fully welded structure so retains its inherent strength and has no nuts & bolts which can loosen over time.

The galvanized zinc coating fully covers the mobile ladder protecting it from the detriments of the outside environment, especially important in external and coastal environments. It is equally useful in food preparation or scientific clean areas where it can be pressure washed regularly and there is no risk of paint flakes.

Standard Punched Steel Step Treads

As standard, our mobile safety steps are fitted with "punched and raised holes" step treads. These treads are highly slip resistant and also shed water off very efficiently.

The step treads are formed from 2mm mild steel and have 9 mm dia punched and 5 mm dia drainage holes in a square pattern. The 9mm holes are "raised" in such a way that the sharp edge of the hole is exposed which grips the sole of a shoe offering high levels of slip resistance. The step treads pass a 15mm ball bearing test - a standard test for steps and grid flooring. The punched and drainage holes give the profile an unsurpassed high strength to weight ratio.

These treads have been tested for slip resistance by the testing company Lucideon in their UKAS accredited testing laboratory. The "Pendulum Test" was originally developed for road surfaces but has grown to include all manner of surfaces such as supermarket floors or swimming pools.

Our step treads were rated as follows:
Dry test: 66 value - Extremely low
Wet test: 50 value - Low

Optional Aggressive Tread

This step is more akin to a bear trap! The Aggressive step tread can be identified by oval, serrated holes that provide the top flange of the planks with a very high load capacity, and rolled side flanges that further reinforce the planks and gratings.

This step tread is used where requirements of slip resistance and drainage are high - often in marine environments, industries with oil and water, building sites, etc. Please note, this is an optional extra and also adds an extra week or so to the build time.

Other Treads available

As the mobile steps manufacturer, we can build the steps with whatever treads suit your requirement. This is not of course the cheapest solution. We offer a competitively priced range of standard mobile steps but acknowledge that sometimes price is not the critical factor, but rather design is.

Rubber Treads

Whilst we can make steps with rubber mats stuck on, we no longer offer them as a standard option. They offer no real benefit over the punched steel treads and over time, the glue will invariable fail... a corner lifts... gets caught... gets ripped off.
