Description
The Heavy-Duty Solution for High-Level Access
When your racking goes high, you need equipment that feels rock-solid underfoot. The Steptek Economy Range is designed specifically for higher warehouse aisles, offering platform heights up to 3.25m (working height approx. 4.75m). Despite the “Economy” name, there is no compromise on build quality; every unit is manufactured in Britain from fully welded tubular steel, boasting a rugged 150kg Safe Working Load.
- Proven Manufacture: British Made
- Tread Width: 560mm
- Platform Size (W x D) mm: 560 x 400
- Safe Working Load: 150kg
- Treads: Anti-Slip or Punched Steel
Smart “Anti-Ascent” Lever Braking
Unlike smaller steps that rely on springs, this high-reach range utilizes a positive Lever Braking System with a crucial safety feature: the Anti-Ascent Bar.
-
To Move: You pull the yellow lever bar. This engages the castors and simultaneously locks a barrier across the steps. This physically prevents anyone from trying to climb the steps while they are mobile—a major accident prevention feature.
-
To Climb: You release the lever. The castors retract, the steel feet lock onto the floor, and the bar moves fully through the tread to clear your path. You simply cannot climb an unsafe, rolling ladder.
Built for Comfort at Height
Working at 4 meters in the air requires confidence. That is why this range features extra-wide 560mm treads and a deep 560mm x 400mm top platform. This broad footprint reduces vertigo and fatigue, allowing operators to use both hands for picking stock safely. The unit is finished in a professional light grey epoxy with a high-visibility yellow operating bar for clear identification in dim lighting.
Tread Options for Your Environment
Tailor the steps to your specific facility with two distinct tread surfaces:
-
Anti-Slip: A high-grip surface ideal for general warehousing.
-
Punched Steel: An open-grid design that prevents dirt, dust, or moisture from accumulating—perfect for dusty environments or areas with sprinkler systems.
Easy Mobility
Moving a large 13-tread tower is surprisingly easy thanks to the upgraded wheel set. The rear of the unit rides on large 200mm solid rubber wheels, which handle rough concrete floors or expansion joints far better than small castors, while the front uses 75mm non-marking swivel castors for precise steering into narrow aisles.
Why Buy From HSE Store?
-
Safety Lock: The anti-ascent bar is a “must-have” feature for health and safety managers controlling high-level work.
-
Massive Reach: One of the few ranges that goes all the way up to 13 treads for top-tier racking access.
-
Free Delivery: We ship these large, welded structures for free on orders over £50 (saving you significant freight costs).
-
Floor Protection: Fitted with grey non-marking feet and wheels to protect your warehouse floor surfacing.

FAQ's
Question |
Technical Answer |
|---|---|
| What colours are your Steptek warehouse steps available in? | Standard Steptek steps come in the colours shown in our product options. We also offer custom powder-coating for bulk orders. Contact us for a RAL colour quote. |
| Are spare parts available? | Yes. We supply a full range of replacement treads, platforms, wheels, and rubber feet to extend the life of your steps. Visit our spare parts section or call our team for help. Spare parts available here. |
| Does the platform count as a tread? | Yes. When ordering, remember that the top platform is included in the tread count (e.g., a 4-tread step has 3 treads plus the platform). |
| Can these be used outdoors? | We strongly advise against using standard Steptek units outside. For wet or outdoor environments, you require galvanised warehouse steps to prevent rust and ensure safety. Contact us for a quote on galvanised models. |
| What safety standards do these meet? | Our BSI Steptek range is manufactured to meet EN131-7 standards for mobile leaning ladders and steps. They feature high handrails and kickboards to ensure full compliance with UK Health & Safety regulations. |
| What is the maximum weight capacity? | Most of our standard mobile warehouse steps have a Safe Working Load (SWL) of 150kg. This accommodates a single user plus tools or stock items. Always check the specific product data sheet for heavy-duty variants. |
| Do they arrive assembled? | All of our Steptek units are delivered fully welded and ready for immediate use. Larger warehouse steps, usually 10 tread and above, will be supplied in 2 parts for on site assembly, this is for transportation reasons. |
| How does the braking or safety system work? | Our mobile steps use either a side hand lock lever and anti ascent bar or weight-activated retractable castors. Both systems ensure that once the user applies weight or engages the lock, the rubber feet grip the floor securely to prevent movement. |
| Are they safe for mezzanine floors? | Yes. Steptek steps are designed with non-marking rubber feet and high-quality castors, making them suitable for standard warehouse concrete, mezzanine flooring, and commercial surfaces without causing damage. |
| Can I get bulk order discounts? | We offer tiered pricing for volume orders (2+ units). Please check the bulk pricing on our product page, this is automatically applied in the cart and checkout section clearly. |
