Safety is at the heart of every design. From ergonomic handrails that prioritise secure access to rounded tubing for improved grip, our platforms are engineered for practicality and protection. Features like curved return rails on your truck platform eliminate hard edges, creating a safe and user-friendly experience.

For larger projects, our truck loading platforms can be customised with center-mounted castors, allowing multiple platforms to join side-by-side without obstructing pathways. And when it comes to the working surface, choose between a sturdy checker plate or grid mesh—each offering a secure, reliable foundation.

Whether you require steps at a 67-degree angle or stairs at 45 degrees, we adhere strictly to Australian Standards, delivering platforms that meet your specific access and equipment needs.
