TB Davies Ladders & Professional Access Equipment

TB Davies is one of Britain's long-established names in professional ladders, steps and work-at-height equipment. Established in 1945, the company has developed a broad portfolio of access solutions for construction, industry, utilities, warehousing, facilities management, maintenance and commercial workplaces. HSE Store supplies a comprehensive selection of TB Davies ladders and access equipment, including combination ladders, step ladders, swingback ladders, extension ladders, telescopic ladders, roof ladders, warehouse steps, podiums, scaffold towers, access platforms and specialist fibreglass equipment. The range is designed for professional users who require dependable access equipment for different working heights, environments and applications. From compact step ladders and telescopic systems through to large industrial towers and specialist platforms, TB Davies provides a wide choice of equipment for working at height.

Why Choose TB Davies?

TB Davies combines long-standing experience in work-at-height equipment with modern product development and engineering. The company states that it remains a family business and has continued to develop access solutions intended to make professional work at height safer, more practical and more efficient. Its product portfolio covers both everyday trade equipment and more specialised industrial access systems, allowing users to choose products according to the task rather than relying on one type of ladder or platform for every application. TB Davies also has a strong focus on industry standards, professional access and training. The company is an ISO 9001 registered business, a member of the Ladder Association and PASMA, and operates as an accredited PASMA training centre.

TB Davies Combination Ladders

TB Davies combination ladders provide versatile access by allowing one ladder system to be configured for different working positions and applications. The range supplied by HSE Store includes the STILO Combination Ladder and GENIA Professional Combination Ladder, providing options for professional users who need flexibility between different access arrangements. Combination ladders can be used in different configurations depending on the individual model, including supported step and extension arrangements and, on suitable products, configurations intended for use around stairways or other changing access requirements. This makes combination ladders particularly useful for tradespeople, maintenance teams and contractors who regularly move between different tasks and working environments.

TB Davies Professional Step Ladders

TB Davies step ladders provide stable, straightforward access for everyday professional work at height. HSE Store supplies several professional configurations, including the HDUTY-P Aluminium Professional Step Ladder, MAXI Professional Step Ladder and HDUTY-S Aluminium Professional Swingback. Different designs provide different combinations of platform size, tread configuration, working height, weight and portability. This allows users to select a ladder suited to the way it will actually be used rather than simply choosing the tallest available model. Platform-style step ladders can be particularly useful where a more substantial standing area is beneficial for the task, while swingback designs provide a practical option for general trade and maintenance applications.

TB Davies Extension Ladders

TB Davies extension ladders provide increased reach for applications where a conventional stepladder does not provide sufficient height. The TASKMASTER Professional Extension Ladder is part of the HSE Store range and is available in multiple configurations. Extension ladder systems are particularly useful for exterior maintenance, construction, building services and other professional applications where access to greater heights is required. When selecting an extension ladder, users should consider the required working height, ladder length, number of sections, available set-up space and the surface on which the ladder will be positioned.

TB Davies Telescopic Ladders

TB Davies telescopic ladders provide adjustable access in a compact format, making them particularly useful where transport and storage space are limited. HSE Store supplies the XTEND+CLIMB ProSeries S2.0 and the larger XTEND+CLIMB Super ProSeries S2.0, including the 4.4m configuration. These products provide adjustable height while collapsing into a more compact form for transportation and storage. Telescopic ladders can be useful for mobile trades, maintenance teams, service engineers and contractors who need equipment that can be transported between locations without the bulk of a conventional long extension ladder.

TB Davies Fibreglass & GRP Ladders

TB Davies fibreglass ladders provide a non-conductive alternative to aluminium for suitable electrical and specialist applications. The HSE Store range includes the INSUL8-C Fibreglass GRP Combination Ladder together with INSUL8 fibreglass work platforms. These products are designed for environments where fibreglass construction is preferred or required for the intended application. Fibreglass and GRP products should always be selected according to the precise electrical and workplace requirements of the task. The individual product specification should be checked before use.

TB Davies Roof Ladders

TB Davies roof ladders provide specialist access for roofing and pitched-roof applications. The ROOFER Aluminium Professional Roof Ladder is part of the HSE Store collection and provides a dedicated solution for professional roofing work where a conventional ladder configuration may not be appropriate. Roof ladders should only be selected and used in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions and appropriate working-at-height procedures.

TB Davies Warehouse Steps

TB Davies warehouse steps are designed for professional access around shelving, storage, stock and warehouse operations. HSE Store supplies the Heavy Duty Professional Warehouse Steps, available across a range of tread configurations, together with Heavy Duty Trade Mobile Steps. The current professional warehouse range extends from lower-level access through to significantly higher platform configurations. The Heavy Duty Professional Warehouse Steps provide a substantial working platform and are designed for demanding warehouse and industrial environments. The Heavy Duty Trade Mobile Steps also provide a broad range of tread and platform heights for different storage and maintenance applications. For warehouse-specific access requirements, users should consider platform height, tread count, available aisle space, working load and the frequency with which the equipment will be repositioned.

TB Davies Podium Steps

TB Davies podium steps provide a stable standing platform for tasks where a secure working position is more appropriate than a conventional step ladder. The HSE Store collection includes the TELE-POD Aluminium Industrial Telescopic Podium Step, a specialist podium system designed to provide adjustable access across different working heights. Podium-style equipment can be particularly useful for maintenance, installation, inspection, stock handling and other applications where the user may need to remain at an elevated position for longer periods.

TB Davies Scaffold Towers

TB Davies scaffold towers provide mobile elevated work areas for construction, maintenance, installation and other professional applications. The HSE Store range includes the THREE-T Aluminium Industrial Scaffold Tower, UNO Aluminium Industrial Tower, STAIR-TOWER Aluminium Industrial Staircase Tower, X-TOWER Aluminium Industrial Telescopic Tower and SPEEDY Aluminium Trade Tower. TB Davies' wider tower portfolio also includes AGR and other industrial configurations. The company describes its current scaffold tower range as covering applications from industrial through to light trade, with 3T/AGR set-up methods and specialist towers designed for staircases. TB Davies is also a PASMA-accredited training centre, providing training associated with the safe use of mobile access towers.

TB Davies Work Platforms

TB Davies work platforms provide stable standing areas for professional low-level work at height where a platform can offer advantages over a conventional ladder. The HSE Store range includes the UP-DOWN Aluminium Industrial Hop-Up Platform, DPS-STEP Aluminium Trade Single-Sided Access Platform, DPD-STEP Aluminium Trade Double-Sided Access Platform, INSUL8-MWP Fibreglass Work Platform and INSUL8-MWP-SQ Square Fibreglass Work Platform. These products provide different approaches to access, from compact hop-up platforms through to larger double-sided systems and non-conductive fibreglass work platforms. TB Davies itself notes that work platforms and podiums can be preferable for longer-duration low-level tasks because they can provide additional standing area and safety features compared with conventional step ladders.

TB Davies Specialist Access Platforms

The TB Davies range extends into specialist industrial access equipment designed around particular applications. The BRIDGE-DECK Aluminium Industrial Bridging Platform provides a specialist bridging solution, while the STABLE-STEP Aluminium Industrial Work Step is designed as a compact industrial access product. The MECA-MODUL system also provides a modular approach to creating access and circulation platforms for industrial environments. These products are particularly relevant where a conventional ladder or standard step does not provide the required access arrangement.

TB Davies Industrial & Specialist Ladders

TB Davies' wider ladder portfolio includes specialist products for applications where conventional trade ladders are not sufficient. Its current specialist ladder range includes products such as the VERTI Steel Pole Ladder, EXCAVATION Aluminium Industrial Ladder, SLAB ACCESS Aluminium Industrial Ladder and Truck Access Aluminium Industrial Ladder. These specialist products demonstrate the breadth of TB Davies' approach to professional access equipment, with designs developed around specific working environments rather than treating every task as a standard ladder application.

TB Davies Mobile Access Equipment

Mobile access equipment provides a practical solution where access equipment needs to be repositioned around a workplace. TB Davies offers mobile solutions across several parts of its portfolio, including warehouse steps, scaffold towers, podiums and work platforms. Depending on the product, mobility can be provided through wheels, castors, telescopic adjustment or other positioning systems. The appropriate arrangement depends on whether the equipment is intended for frequent movement, occasional repositioning or fixed use once positioned.

Professional Access Equipment for Industry

TB Davies products are used across a broad range of professional environments where reliable work-at-height equipment is required. Construction – combination ladders, extension ladders, towers, podiums and specialist platforms. Warehousing – warehouse steps, mobile access equipment and platforms for stock and racking. Facilities management – portable ladders, telescopic ladders, platforms and specialist access equipment. Industrial maintenance – heavy-duty ladders, platforms, towers and specialist access systems. Utilities and infrastructure – professional ladders and specialist access equipment designed around specific working environments. Electrical work – suitable fibreglass and GRP access equipment where non-conductive construction is required. Roofing – dedicated roof ladder systems for appropriate roofing applications.

TB Davies Safety, Standards & Professional Use

TB Davies places significant emphasis on professional work-at-height requirements and compliance with relevant standards. Its own current range includes products designed and tested to applicable standards, while individual models carry their own specifications and certifications. For example, the TB Davies Heavy Duty Trade Mobile Steps supplied by HSE Store are identified with BS EN 131-7 certification and BSI Kitemark information on the individual product page. Certification should always be checked at individual product level rather than assuming that every TB Davies product has the same standard or certification.

Choosing the Right TB Davies Access Equipment

The correct TB Davies product depends on the task, working height, environment and duration of the work. For short-duration low-level work, a step ladder, work step or compact platform may provide the most practical solution. For higher access, an extension or telescopic ladder may be more appropriate. Where users need a larger standing area or prolonged access, a podium or work platform may provide a better working position. Warehouse and industrial environments can require additional considerations such as mobility, platform dimensions, aisle width, load requirements and working height. Scaffold towers provide another option where a larger elevated work area is required. Always check the individual product's dimensions, safe working load, working height, materials, configuration, applicable standard and manufacturer's instructions before selecting or using access equipment.
