Frequently Asked Questions
How are ErectaStep crossover stairs different from custom-built?

ErectaStep systems are fully prefabricated and modular, which eliminates the need for custom engineering or fabrication. The bolt-together design reduces installation time and cost, while still providing OSHA-compliant access across obstacles like pipes, conveyors, or equipment.

Can the stairs be adjusted or reconfigured after installation?

Yes. The five-component modular system allows for quick reconfiguration if your facility layout changes. Components can be reused, repositioned, or expanded without specialized labor or fabrication.

How quickly can the stairs be delivered and installed?

In most cases, customers receive their ErectaStep system and complete installation within the same week. Because the system is in stock, flat-packed, and requires no welding or hot work permits, the process is significantly faster than traditional alternatives.

Are ErectaStep crossover stairs OSHA-compliant?

Yes. All systems are pre-engineered to meet or exceed OSHA standards. This ensures a safe, compliant solution without the need for additional review or engineering input.
