Loading Dock Stairs
Fast Installation, Long-Term Durability
Reliable & Compliant Access — Prefabricated Aluminum Built for Demanding Environments
When safety, speed, and durability matter, our prefabricated aluminum loading dock stairs deliver. Built to meet or exceed OSHA standards, these stairs offer dependable access for loading docks, warehouses, and industrial facilities—without the delays of traditional construction or custom fabrication.
Each unit arrives ready to assemble with no welding, special tools, or permits required. Lightweight yet sturdy, the all-aluminum build stands up to outdoor conditions, heavy foot traffic, and daily wear—while eliminating the need for ongoing maintenance. Most installs are completed in just a few hours, minimizing disruption and keeping projects on track.
- Compliance Built-In — Pre-engineered to align with OSHA requirements.
- Installs Fast — Bolt-together design assembles quickly using common tools—no hot work permits needed.
- Durable & Low Maintenance — All-aluminum construction resists corrosion and never needs painting.
- Slip-Resistant Treads — Grip strut step treads and platform decking provide superior traction, tested to be up to 180% more slip-resistant than similar materials.

Loading Dock Stair Features
Dock Steps – Prefabricated, Durable, and Quick to Install

Code Compliant – Loading dock stairs are designed according to IBC, ADA, and OSHA standards. While most loading docks only require OSHA compliance, we offer IBC/ADA options.
Easy Installation – Our Dock Steps are prefabricated, modular, and bolt together without special equipment or welding. They typically bolt together in about an hour.
Quality Manufactured in the United States
Leveling Legs – Platform legs have 8” of adjustability for uneven ground or ongoing adjustments.
100% Aluminum & Long Lasting – Our dock steps will never rust, warp, or rot. All components are low maintenance and will last much longer than wood or steel.
Slip-Resistant Decking – The dock steps are standard with an aggressive, heavy-duty 3” channel grip strut grating that provides maximum, multi-directional slip resistance. Other decking options are also available.
HPD/LEED/ESG – Because our products are modular, repurposable, and contain 32.5% to 75% recycled content, including 50% to 65% pre-consumer and up to 20% post-consumer recycled scrap, they can help contribute to several LEED v4.1 credits and other green building rating systems.

Excellent customer service, a plus in today's competitive marketplace. I received excellent customer service… a plus in today's competitive marketplace. Transloading sites must have some sort of containment; this is compact, lightweight, and easy to store for quick access when needed.

By Pete W. from Miller Bros. Construction, Inc.

I order from SafeRack because I always know they will exceed my expectations. With SafeRack, I look forward to placing orders with them because I know everything will be handled from when I order the product until I unload it off the delivery truck. I also know that if there is a problem, it will be handled quickly and professionally and they will stay in contact with me throughout the entire order and check up periodically to make sure everything is going OK. The product was delivered ahead of schedule as are most of the orders I place with SafeRack. The ease of installation is the best feature of the gangway. The construction, ease of use, and high visibility color scheme all make this a well rounded product.
