Cat Ladders / Steel Ladders
Fixed steel cat ladders with safety cages for vertical access.
Engineering Excellence in Cat Ladders / Steel Ladders
Thobal supplies and installs fixed steel cat ladders and safety cages for vertical access to rooftops, plant platforms, tanks, and equipment. Each ladder is engineered to occupational safety standards with the correct rung spacing, side-rail dimensions, and cage requirements above 3 metres of climbing height. Our ladders are fabricated from galvanised steel and supplied with engineered wall brackets and platform landings.
Why Clients Choose Thobal
- OSHA and SBC compliant rung spacing, clearances, and cages
- Galvanised and stainless steel construction
- Safety cages fitted above 3 m climbing height
- Engineered wall brackets for all substrate types
- Rest platforms provided at required intervals
- Certified fall-arrest rail integration options
Scope of Work & Deliverables
Dedicated engineering supervision and full-scope execution across every stage of cat ladders / steel ladders.
Cat ladders are fabricated from galvanised or stainless steel with precision rung spacing, safety hoops and verticals above 3 metres of climb, and rest platforms at required intervals — assessed against OSHA and SBC standards for each application.
Engineered wall brackets anchor every ladder to concrete, blockwork, or structural steel, with a certified vertical fall-arrest rail available where required — serving rooftops, plant platforms, tanks, and equipment access.
Execution follows a code-assessed sequence — climbing height and cage requirements are verified, precision fabrication is completed with correct rung spacing, and engineered wall brackets anchor each ladder to concrete, blockwork, or structural steel. Quality is assured through weld inspection, levelling, and secure bolting with anti-theft fixings, and safety governs installation at height. Deliverables include compliance checklists, material certificates, and as-built drawings confirming OSHA and SBC conformity.
