ErectaStep Crossover Stairs and Step Systems

SafeRack’s crossover stairs and step systems from ErectaStep give your team a safe, permanent way to cross over pipes, conveyors, and production lines without slowing down operations. This prefabricated crossover step system bolts together quickly, with no welding or hot work permit required. Our system can improve safety, speed up operations, and provide a flexible solution for your facility. 

Why Crossover Stairs Matter

In many workspaces, people will take shortcuts through potentially hazardous areas to save time, or are forced to go around obstacles, increasing the time it takes to get from point A to B. This adds everyday risk for slips, trips, and falls. 

Slips, trips, and falls are one of the most common workplace accidents. In 2023, these incidents accounted for 885 deaths, or 15% of work-related fatalities. For business owners, slips and falls result in 99 million production days lost and $70 billion in medical costs across all industries every year. 

ErectaStep’s crossover step system can be essential in avoiding these tragedies. The flexible design can be used to provide new secure pathways that save your business time and money. Our systems can be utilized in a variety of workplaces. A few common hazards that it can help reduce the risk of include:

  • Pipes and process lines
  • Conveyors and packaging lines
  • Rooftop crossovers
  • Utility or electrical zones
  • Low barriers and walls

Key Features of the ErectaStep Crossover Step System

ErectaSteps’s crossover step system provides a specialized, flexible approach that can be used to match any workplace. A few benefits they provide include:

  • Modular Pre-fabricated design. ErectaStep’s crossover step system has five standardized components that can create crossovers, raised walkways, and equipment access platforms.
  • OSHA‑compliant out of the box. SafeRack’s approach meets or exceeds the standards for walkways laid out in OSHA 1910.25 and other stairway-related regulations.  
  • Fast, tool-free assembly. Our crossover stairs ship in parts that are easy to assemble with basic tools, avoiding the need for welding, canes, or hot work permits.
  • Lightweight, corrosion‑resistant aluminum. Durable, low‑maintenance, and easier to move or reconfigure than heavy welded steel.
  • Reconfigurable. When processes move, you can reuse towers, platforms, and stair components to create new crossover stairs.
