Cat Ladder Installation Solutions

Every factory cat ladder ships ready to bolt on — with installation guidance, fixing kits and engineer support included. You install; we make it fit first time. An improvised access route is the first thing an auditor flags — and the last thing you want explained in an incident review.

Installation Guide & Drawings

Step-by-step install guide with dimensional drawings reviewed free before production. Ladders arrive pre-drilled and trial-assembled, so hole centres and stile spacing line up on site.

Fixing Kits & Brackets

Wall standoff brackets (150–250 mm), roof hooks and SS304 bolt kits ship with every ladder. Rated to the 1.5 kN rung load with fixing centres at ≤1500 mm — no on-site drilling.

Engineer Support

Send photos or measurements and an engineer confirms the correct fitting arrangement within 24 hours — by WhatsApp or email, free of charge, before you order.

Cat Ladder Fitting, Step by Step

Cat Ladder Fitting Guide

Our bolt-up design means no welding on site. Follow the four-step fitting sequence and the full install guide included with your order.

  • 1. Confirm fixing points

    Mark bracket centres at ≤1500 mm spacing along the wall, starting 300 mm below the top landing level.

  • 2. Bolt up standoff brackets

    Use the SS304 anchor kit included. Wall standoff of 150–250 mm keeps the required hand clearance behind the rungs.

  • 3. Fix stiles and rungs

    Hang the pre-assembled section, align, and torque to the drawing. Rung spacing is 225–230 mm with 1.5 kN rung load.

  • 4. Add cage or rest platforms

    Add fall protection where your code requires it — EN ISO 14122-4/BS 4211 typically above 3 m free climb; OSHA 1910.28 above 24 ft (7.3 m). Single sections run to 25 m; taller runs get rest platforms per EN ISO 14122-4.

Cat Ladder Installation FAQ

How hard is a cat ladder to install?
Our cat ladders are bolt-up systems — stiles, rungs and brackets are pre-drilled and trial-assembled at the factory, and every order includes a step-by-step installation guide plus a free drawing review. Two installers with standard tools can typically fit a 6 m ladder with safety cage in under a day.
What does a cat ladder installation cost?
Pricing depends on climb height, material and cage configuration, so we quote itemized ex-works rates within 24 hours rather than publish averages. Factory-direct rates typically land well below US catalog equivalents for the same compliance documentation. See our cat ladder price guide for what drives cost per metre.
Do you supply installation drawings and compliance documents?
Yes — free drawing review before production, and every order ships with a Declaration of Conformity (DoC), an EN 10204 MTC 3.1 material certificate and engineer-signed structural calculation sheets, all at no extra cost.
What are the four steps of cat ladder installation?
First, mark bracket centres at ≤1500 mm spacing along the wall, starting 300 mm below the top landing level. Second, fix the SS304 anchor kit with a 150–250 mm standoff. Third, hang the pre-assembled section, align and torque to the drawing. Fourth, add fall protection where your code requires it.
Do I need to weld or drill anything on site?
No — our bolt-up design means no welding on site, and no drilling either. Stiles, rungs and brackets arrive pre-drilled and trial-assembled, so hole centres and stile spacing line up when the section hangs. The four-step sequence in the included install guide is all your crew follows.
How are climbs above 25 m installed?
Single sections run to 25 m — our factory maximum for one run — and taller climbs are split into sections with rest platforms per EN ISO 14122-4. Each section hangs, aligns and torques to the drawing in turn, and fall protection is added where your code requires it.
How long does supply take before installation can start?
The itemized quote and fixing arrangement land within 24 hours; production then runs 15–25 working days from the approved drawing. Orders ship EXW, FOB or CIF, and because installation drawings travel with the goods your crew can schedule the fitting the day the container opens.
Are spare fixing kits available after installation?
Yes — spare rungs, brackets and gates are available as running spares, so a corroded bracket or damaged gate never leaves an access route out of service. Parts are matched to your original stile spacing, with engineer confirmation within 24 hours of your photo.
