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.

What Customers Are Saying

★★★★★

Always a positive experience. Price is good. Outstanding delivery time. If it wasn't in stock for immediate delivery, I would have gone to another supplier. SafeRack had the item ready to go. My salesman John Nance is very efficient and responds almost immediately. This product improves safety for my staff, cutting down their time moving around the yard. This product is weather protected, with no maintenance, plus saves cost on designing, engineering and building in-house. Always a positive experience. Price is good.
