Fixed Ladders & Openings
Fixed ladders and the openings they serve are everywhere in industrial buildings — and many no longer meet current fall-protection rules. SkyHigh brings them up to code.
- Tall fixed ladders relying on cages that no longer satisfy OSHA.
- Ladder openings at landings and roof level left unguarded.
- Worn or non-compliant ladders needing replacement.
We retrofit vertical fall-arrest systems to existing ladders or fabricate new compliant ladders, and guard every opening with a guardrail surround and self-closing gate.
We help plan the phased upgrade from cages to compliant fall-arrest on the schedule that suits the facility.
