Why Aluminium for Cat Ladders

Aluminium Cat Ladder Material Comparison

The right material for an aluminium cat ladder is the one that survives your environment longest. We compare the three options we fabricate in-house — so you pick on corrosion, weight and cost, not guesswork. A material mismatch near coastal or chemical exposure turns a capital asset into a maintenance line item.

Aluminium is the corrosion-resistant specialist of the range — ideal where salt air, chemicals or wash-down cycles attack painted steel.

Aluminium Cat Ladder FAQ

Why choose an aluminium cat ladder over galvanised steel?
Aluminium cat ladders weigh around 40% less than HDG steel, need no hot-dip zinc bath and stay maintenance-free in coastal, chemical, food and pharma environments. We machine 6061-T6 and 6063-T5 alloy with SS304/SS316 fasteners, and every rung carries a 1.5 kN design load, verified in the structural calculation sheet.
Is an aluminium cat ladder OSHA and EN ISO 14122 compliant?
Yes — aluminium cat ladders are built to OSHA 1910.28 / 1910.23, EN ISO 14122-4 and BS 4211 with 225–230 mm rung spacing, fixing centres at 1500 mm or less and a 1.5 kN rung load. Every order ships with a DoC, MTC 3.1 material certificate and engineer-signed structural calculations.
Can you supply a 6 m aluminium cat ladder with a safety cage?
Yes. We ship single runs up to 25 m with rest platforms above that, in knock-down or assembled sections. A 6 m aluminium cat ladder with safety cage and hinged gate is quoted per configuration, factory-direct ex-works — far below US catalog prices for the equivalent unit.
How long does production take, and do you ship internationally?
Production runs 15–25 working days from approved drawing. We ship EXW, FOB or CIF to 50+ countries, packed as loose container parts or full assemblies. Quotes are itemized and returned within 24 hours.
Can you build non-standard climb heights?
Custom heights are engineered to your drawing — single runs to 25 m with rest platforms above, bolt-together sections for taller climbs. The drawing review is free within the 24-hour quote, so the height you need is confirmed before production starts.
What installation support comes with an aluminium order?
Anchor plans and installation drawings are included with every order; sections bolt together on site, and ladders are trial-assembled at the factory where specified. At around 40% lighter than HDG steel, aluminium also speeds rooftop handling on weight-limited structures and retrofits.
Will an aluminium cat ladder corrode in coastal or chemical atmospheres?
No — aluminium is the corrosion-resistant specialist of our range. Anodised 6061-T6 with SS304 or SS316 fasteners stays maintenance-free in coastal, chemical, food and pharma environments, with no repainting cycle to budget. The alloy grade is matched to your site atmosphere in the free drawing review.
Is aluminium strong enough for the 1.5 kN rung load?
Yes. 6061-T6 is a weldable structural alloy, and every rung is rated to a 1.5 kN design load verified in the engineer-signed structural calculation sheet. Rung spacing holds to 225–230 mm centres, and alloy, temper and load data are traceable on the MTC 3.1 certificate.
