Frequently Asked Questions
How do the counterweights keep the rooftop stair system stable?

The system uses engineered counterweighted bases that balance the structure and prevent tipping or shifting. Combined with non-slip pads and wide contact points, they provide exceptional stability without fasteners or roof penetration.

Is this system compatible with all types of flat rooftops?

Yes. The non-penetrating design is suitable for most flat commercial and industrial roof types, including membrane, built-up, and coated systems. Neoprene pads protect the surface and help distribute weight evenly.

Are these systems OSHA and IBC compliant?

Absolutely. All configurations are pre-engineered to meet or exceed OSHA and IBC codes, including tread dimensions, platform width, and handrail requirements.

Can the system be reconfigured or relocated after installation?

Yes. The modular design makes it easy to adjust, expand, or relocate sections as your facility needs change—without requiring new roof penetrations or structural changes.

I received a call to anticipate delivery; great communication!!! David Daniel was an excellent rep. He checked in with me periodically on the status of the project. He was extremely patient with our process. He was never pushy. He responded quickly to our requests to furnish additional information or clarify any questions we had. Service has been excellent. Also, delivery was quicker than anticipated, well within the 3 week time frame. I received a call to anticipate delivery; the truck driver didn't just show up. We could plan for the off-loading in a timely manner. Great communication!!! Last, installation was NOT complicated… ready to use in a few hours after foundation is completed.
