Industrial Cat Ladder FAQ

What is an industrial cat ladder?
An industrial cat ladder is a permanently fixed steel ladder for safe access to plant roofs, tanks, silos and platforms. We build them to your exact height in Q235B hot-dip galvanized steel, SS304 or SS316.
Which standards apply to cat ladder construction?
Industrial cat ladders are built to OSHA 1910.23/28, BS 4211 and EN ISO 14122-4. Every order ships with a DoC, an MTC 3.1 material certificate and a structural calculation sheet.
Can external cat ladders be built to my drawing?
Yes — external cat ladders are fabricated to order with safety cage, landing platform and standoff brackets sized to your drawing. Send a drawing or photo and we confirm fit and pricing within 24 hours.
Do you export industrial cat ladders worldwide?
Yes — we have supplied cat ladders to 50+ countries, made in-house since 2004, with factory-direct pricing and 15-25 day production. Quote within 24 hours.
How long does an industrial cat ladder take to manufacture?
We quote within 24 hours and production runs 15–25 working days from approved drawing. Ladders ship EXW, FOB or CIF, and caged builds arrive with hoops fitted from 3 m fall height so plant-side erection stays on schedule. Trial assembly is done where specified.
Can I order one ladder as a trial?
Yes — trial orders start from 1 unit, which suits single-tank maintenance upgrades. Multi-site programs are quoted as container mixes per load plan, mixing caged ladders, platforms, gates and spares across your sites in consolidated shipments. Every ladder is still fabricated to your drawing, whatever the order size.
What installation support comes with industrial ladders?
Anchor plans and installation drawings are included, and bolt-together sections mean no welding on site — important on live plant. Assemblies are trial-assembled where specified, and standoff brackets at 150, 200 or 250 mm position the rungs clear of insulation and cladding.
What rung and stile sections do industrial ladders use?
Stiles sit at 375–420 mm centres with serrated 20 mm Ø rungs at 250–300 mm centres — comfortable in boots and gloves on plant sites. Every rung carries a 1.5 kN design load, and builds run in Q235B HDG, SS304 or SS316.
How are industrial ladders fixed to tanks and silos?
Wall standoff brackets at 150, 200 or 250 mm bolt the stiles clear of tank and silo shells, keeping rungs clear of the vessel surface. Brackets are grade-matched to the ladder — Q235B HDG, SS304 or SS316 — and the fixing layout is confirmed on the installation drawing.
