Skip access can be a recurring challenge on active work sites where materials must be disposed of frequently and safely. This mobile access step has been engineered to streamline the process by aligning directly with standard skip heights. Built to withstand heavy site use, it enables safe repeat access for users transferring waste manually into high-sided skips.
Its large platform is surrounded by a full wrap safety guard to prevent falls, and the tread depth ensures each step offers stable footing, even in wet or muddy conditions. Thanks to its swivel castors and lever-lock system, the skip ladder can be repositioned as required but remains secure when in use.
Platform width and length are both 1200mm, making it suitable for skips with wide access points or side tipping operations. The overall structure reaches a height of 2500mm, with an inclined access length of 2420mm. With a load-bearing capacity of 600kg, it handles heavy-duty use in waste transfer, demolition clearance, and material offloading applications.

1200mm | 1200mm | 2420mm | 1500mm | 2500mm | 600KG |
