Access Platforms and Gantries

Access Platforms and Gantries


Access platforms and gantries are custom-engineered height safety solutions designed to provide safe and efficient access to equipment and maintenance areas in commercial and industrial settings.


At Safetylyne, we specialise in delivering bespoke, end-to-end solutions - from design and engineering to manufacture - tailored to the specific needs of each project.


Our lightweight yet durable platforms and gantries are built to adapt to complex project requirements, ensuring compliance, reliability, and optimal functionality for a wide range of applications.

Gantry Access Platforms System

Working at heights requires specialised solutions to ensure safety, compliance, and operational efficiency. Whether it’s for maintenance, construction, or transportation, gantry platforms, access platforms, and other height safety solutions are essential to protect workers and optimise workflows.


Gantry Platforms and Access Platforms

Gantry platforms and access platforms are elevated structures designed to provide safe access to hard-to-reach areas. They vary in design, mobility, and material to suit specific tasks, from industrial maintenance to transportation logistics.


Key features include:

+ Stable and secure structures for safe work at heights.

+ Compliance with Australian standards for ladders and platforms.

+ Options for fixed, portable, or suspended systems.

+ Durable construction, often with non-slip surfaces, guardrails and stairs for safe access essential for work at heights.

+ Safetylyne's platforms can be installed on uneven surfaces to provide safe and compliant even working surface for easy access solution.

Types of Gantry Platforms Access Systems


Fixed Gantry Platforms

A permanent solution for repetitive tasks or areas requiring constant access. These platforms are ideal for:

  • Industrial equipment maintenance
  • Conveyor or plant system inspections
  • Warehouses with elevated access needs

Features:

Maintenance Access Platforms

Specifically designed for routine servicing and inspections, these platforms offer stability and safety for tasks like HVAC maintenance and solar panel servicing.

Advantages:

  • Lightweight aluminium maintenance platforms for easy portability
  • Durable, corrosion-resistant materials for long-term use
  • Custom sizing to fit tight spaces or specific equipment

Suspended Gantries

Designed for tasks like facade maintenance, suspended gantries are lightweight and easy to maneuver.

Applications:

Benefits:

  • Non-slip surfaces and guardrails for safety
  • Flexibility to reach different heights and angles
  • Suitable for corrosive and humid environments



Tanker and Truck Access Platforms

Specialised platforms designed for safe access to large vehicles such as trucks, tankers and mining machinery.

Benefits:

  • Enhanced safety for loading, unloading, and maintenance tasks
  • Stability for high-risk environments
  • Custom-engineered designs to accommodate different vehicle sizes


Stair Access Platforms

Combining stairs and platforms, stair access platforms are perfect for ergonomic and secure movement between levels.

Applications:

  • Industrial facilities with multi-level operations
  • Construction sites requiring elevated access
  • Warehouses and logistics centers


Bridge Deck Platforms

Bridge deck platforms are versatile solutions designed for both indoor and outdoor applications. Engineered for stability and safety, they are especially useful in environments with uneven ground or challenging site conditions.

Applications:

  • Construction sites requiring elevated access across varying terrain
  • Maintenance of bridges, overpasses, and other infrastructure
  • Industrial facilities with large or uneven workspaces

Benefits:

  • Suitable for indoor and outdoor use, with durable materials that withstand harsh weather conditions
  • Customisable designs to accommodate uneven ground and site-specific requirements
  • Enhanced safety features, including guardrails and non-slip surfaces, for secure operations for maintenance access, crossover access, work at heights, mining sites access, pipelines crossover, etc

Key Features to Look For When Selecting a Platform or Gantry


+ Compliance. Ensure the platform meets Australian standards for ladders and platforms.

+ Material. Opt for aluminium platforms for durability and corrosion resistance.

+ Safety Features.  Look for non-slip surfaces, guardrails, and fall protection systems, like guardrails and appropriate edge protection systems.

+ Custom Design. Choose platforms tailored to your site-specific requirements tu suit custom requirements of your project for the best operations efficiency.

Australian Standards for Platforms and Gantries


Ensuring Safety and Compliance

Platforms and gantries in Australia must comply with strict safety regulations to ensure the well-being of workers and the durability of the structures. Key standards include AS/NZS 1657,  which governs the design, construction, and installation of fixed platforms, walkways, stairways, and ladders, ensuring they provide safe access and prevent falls.


Additionally, AS/NZS 4994.1 covers temporary edge protection systems, critical for gantries and elevated work areas. These standards mandate features like guardrails, non-slip surfaces, and appropriate load ratings, ensuring platforms and gantries are fit for purpose in industrial, construction, and maintenance environments. Compliance with these standards is not only a legal requirement but also a vital component of workplace safety and operational efficiency.
