Quality Red Warehouse Step Range - BS Certified (3 - 16 Tread)

🏗️ The Pinnacle of Industrial Access: Steptek Quality Red Range Mobile Steps

When only the best will do for your facility, the Steptek Quality Red Range stands alone as the most premium warehouse step solution we offer at HSE Store. These steps are the result of decades of British manufacturing refinement, designed specifically for high-intensity environments where equipment is used around the clock. By investing in the Red Range, you are choosing a product that solves the common industrial headache of rapid equipment wear and tear. Built from a significantly heavier gauge of steel than standard models, these steps offer a level of structural rigidity and "zero-flex" stability that provides your operators with absolute confidence at any height.

💎 Premium Engineering & Customisable Tread Safety

What truly sets the Red Range apart is its uncompromising build quality and the sheer variety of configurations available. These units feature a fully welded, heavy-duty steel construction that arrives at your site ready for immediate, lifelong service. To ensure these steps solve your specific environmental challenges, we offer four distinct, high-performance tread options:

• Ribbed Rubber: The classic choice for clean, dry environments like pharmaceutical or high-end retail stockrooms.

• Anti-Slip Grit: Provides maximum traction in environments where moisture or slick surfaces are a concern.

• Punched Steel: An incredibly durable, low-maintenance option for heavy industrial workshops.

• Aluminium: Ideal for areas where cleanliness is paramount or where a lightweight yet robust foot surface is preferred.

🛡️ Uncompromising Safety: Fully BS EN 131-7 Certified

At HSE Store, we believe premium quality must be backed by premium safety standards. The entire Red Range is fully certified to BS EN 131-7, the rigorous British and European benchmark for mobile platform ladders. This certification ensures the steps have undergone punishing tests for lateral stability, load-bearing integrity, and component durability. In an era of strict health and safety oversight, providing your team with BSI Kitemarked equipment doesn't just reduce the risk of accidents—it demonstrates your commitment to the highest possible safety standards, ensuring full compliance with Health and Safety Executive (HSE) guidelines.

⚙️ Advanced Safety Control & Effortless Mobility

Safety is built into the very mechanics of the Red Range. These steps utilise a sophisticated manual side-handlock brake system combined with a high-visibility anti-ascent bar. This system forces a "safety-first" workflow: a user cannot physically climb the steps until the handlock is engaged, which simultaneously retracts the wheels and moves the barrier out of the way. This creates a rock-solid, stationary workstation that is impossible to move while in use. When the task is done, the high-quality swivel castors and large rear wheels allow the unit to be repositioned with minimal effort, even in the busiest of warehouse aisles.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

• What makes the Red Range more "premium" than other warehouse steps?
  The Red Range uses a heavier steel specification and superior welding techniques, resulting in a more robust frame. It also offers the widest range of tread options and a more sophisticated braking and anti-ascent mechanism, making it the most durable and safe option for 24/7 industrial use.

• Which tread option is best for my business?
  For general warehouse work, Anti-Slip is our top recommendation for safety. If you work in a heavy-duty engineering plant with oil or metal swarf, Punched Steel is incredibly resilient. For office or retail environments, Ribbed Rubber or Aluminium offer a cleaner, professional finish.

• Does the EN 131-7 certification cover all sizes in the range?
  Yes, the entire range is engineered to meet the BS EN 131-7 standard, ensuring that whether you buy a 3-step or a 15-step model, you are receiving a product that meets strict industrial safety laws.

• How does the anti-ascent bar work?
  The bar is linked to the side handlock. When the steps are on their wheels (mobile), the bar blocks access to the first step. Once you pull the lever to lock the steps to the floor, the bar moves, allowing the user to climb safely.

• Are these steps delivered flat-packed?
  Absolutely not. To maintain the structural integrity required for a premium product, all Red Range steps are delivered fully welded and assembled. This eliminates the risk of human error during assembly and ensures the steps remain rigid for years.

• Can I get these in colours other than red?
  While the "Red Range" is the name of this premium line, they are available in a variety of high-visibility colours to suit your branding or to help with zone-coding (e.g., Blue, Yellow, Green, or Orange). Simply contact us for a quote in different colours!
