Crossover Stairs and Ladders


Crossover Stairs and Ladders: Practical Access Over Obstacles

Crossover stairs and ladders are a dependable solution for creating safe, elevated access across pipes, equipment, and changes in level throughout industrial environments.

Often referred to as crossover platforms, these systems provide hands-free, stable access where routine movement is essential—improving safety, efficiency, and compliance with height access standards.

Designed for durability and ease of installation, they’re ideal for high-traffic areas in plant rooms, manufacturing sites, pipeline corridors, and more..

Industrial Crossover Stairs and Platforms


Safe access across obstacles - without compromise


Safetylyne’s industrial crossover ladders, stairs and platforms are engineered for safe, compliant, and convenient access between different levels or over obstacles on-site. Whether it's pipework, equipment, or uneven surfaces, our crossover systems help maintain workflow efficiency while meeting the highest safety standards.


Key Benefits


  • Modular and Easy to Install
    Designed as a modular system, our platforms can be rapidly deployed without the need for additional structural support. This makes them ideal for retrofit projects or time-sensitive installations.


  • Lightweight Aluminium Construction
    Manufactured from mill-finished aluminium and non-corrosive components, the platforms offer long-term durability without adding significant load to the existing structure.


  • Customisable Safety Features
    Optional cage protection, handrail loops, self-closing gates, and ladder lockout systems provide additional safety and controlled access - especially vital for areas above 3 metres in height.


  • Compliant with Australian Standards
    Fully tested to meet AS1657:2018 and AS1891.4:2000 standards, including testing by a NATA-accredited laboratory, ensuring confidence in safety and compliance.


  • Space-Efficient and Unobtrusive
    The low-profile design avoids cluttering your space while still delivering robust protection and access where needed.

Applications


Our crossover stairs, ladders and platforms are designed to solve access challenges in a wide range of industrial settings, including:


  • Pipeline Access
    Cross over pipework safely without disrupting service or compromising safety.
  • Plant Rooms Access
    Navigate complex equipment layouts with minimal obstruction and full compliance.
  • Waste Management Facilities Access
    Provide safe access across waste chutes, tanks, or sorting equipment.
  • Manufacturing Facilities
    Seamlessly move across production lines, conveyors, and machinery.
  • Warehousing and Logistics Centres
    Ensure safe passage over racking systems, conveyors, or restricted zones.
  • Chemical Processing Plants
    Avoid spills, sensitive equipment, or high-temperature zones with elevated pathways.
  • Water Treatment Facilities
    Access filtration units and control areas while avoiding wet or hazardous surfaces.
  • Food & Beverage Processing Areas Access
    Maintain strict hygiene and safety standards with non-corrosive, easy-to-clean aluminium systems.
  • Mining & Resource Sites
    Create safe walkways around equipment and across uneven terrain in high-risk environments.
  • Roof Access and Building Maintenance
    Improve accessibility across roofs or from one building section to another.


Crossover Ladder With Walkway For Roof Surface

All step bridges and bridge crossovers must comply with Australian Safety Standards, particularly AS/NZS 1657, which governs the safety of walkways, platforms, stairs, and ladders.


These regulations set requirements for safe clearances, slope, load rating, handrails, and anti-slip surfaces - ensuring every bridge crossover provides secure and compliant access across pipes, conveyors, or service areas in industrial environments.
