When our client came to us with a unique access challenge, we knew that a one-size-fits-all solution wouldn’t cut it. They needed a way to efficiently connect their ground level to an upper roof while also providing access between two rooftop levels. Enter SafeSmart Access, where custom solutions and precise fitment are our specialty. The Challenge The customer’s requirements were clear: Safe and efficient access between roof levels. A compact footprint to ensure the system didn’t intrude excessively from the building. Compliance with OSHA standards for rooftop safety, including the use of guardrails to prevent fall hazards. The Solution We delivered a tailored system that combined: Standard 45° Stairs: The AdaptaStep system provided safe, easy access from the ground to the upper roof, ensuring two means of access to meet safety standards. Custom Parallel Design: For the ground-to-upper roof connection, we designed a staircase that runs parallel to the building. This minimized the system’s footprint while still delivering the strength and stability required for frequent use. Non-Penetrative Rooftop Guardrails: To enhance rooftop safety without compromising the building’s structure, we incorporated our guardrail system, which offers robust protection without the need for intrusive installation methods. What Sets SafeSmart Apart Unlike conventional access systems, our solutions are built with customization at their core. Here’s how SafeSmart products stand out: Precision Fitment: We tailor every system to the customer’s requirements, ensuring optimal performance and satisfaction. Modular Versatility: Our systems adapt to your needs, not the other way around, offering flexibility for future adjustments or expansions. Compact Designs: By crafting a parallel stair system, we reduced the impact on the client’s usable space without sacrificing functionality or safety. A Satisfied Customer Thanks to our innovative designs, the client now enjoys: Seamless access between all roof levels. A compact, efficient system that integrates perfectly with

When it comes to construction sites, safe and efficient height access is non-negotiable. Traditional scaffolding and temporary wood stairs have long been the go-to solutions, but modern construction projects demand more streamlined, versatile, and reliable alternatives. Enter SafeSmart Access’s Z-Stack and AdjustaStairs — innovative solutions that outshine conventional options in terms of safety, speed, and efficiency. Z-Stack: Revolutionizing Vertical Access The Challenge with Scaffolding Stair Towers Scaffolding stair towers, while useful, come with significant drawbacks. They’re labor-intensive, require complex assembly, and can be costly in terms of time and manpower. Traditional systems also involve more on-site work and depend on optimal weather conditions to ensure safe installation. Why Z-Stack is SuperiorZ-Stack redefines site access with its modular design that can be pre-stacked and craned into place. This means fewer hours of on-site assembly and reduced reliance on large teams. Here’s why construction managers should choose Z-Stack: Lightweight but Strong: Built with high-strength T6, 6061 marine-grade aluminum, each module weighs just 480 lbs, making transportation and installation a breeze. Pre-Stacking Capability: The entire stair system can be pre-assembled off-site and moved into place, drastically cutting down installation time. Fast Installation: Z-Stack is pre-engineered to meet OSHA standards, ensuring both compliance and quick setup for permanent access or multi-level egress. Durable Construction: The rust-resistant aluminum structure is perfect for long-term projects or harsh outdoor conditions. Crane-Liftable: Easily adaptable to site needs, Z-Stack can be craned in as a single unit or installed module-by-module. Safety Certifications: Z-Stack meets stringent OSHA and ANSI standards, providing assurance of safety compliance and reducing the risk of workplace incidents. Cost Benefits: By minimizing on-site labor and assembly time, Z-Stack reduces project costs, translating to significant savings over traditional scaffolding solutions. In contrast, traditional stair towers made from scaffolding often require piecemeal assembly, leading to increased downtime and

At SafeSmart Access, we’re dedicated to overcoming unique industrial challenges with tailored, safety-driven solutions. For Sunoco, our team delivered a customized access solution to streamline navigation around critical infrastructure and improve site efficiency, while ensuring robust safety standards. The crossover platforms were designed to streamline access from one side of the ducting to the other, giving workers a shorter distance to walk. Sunoco is one of the largest independent fuel distribution companies in the United States.

Solution 1 ADAPTASTEP Crossover: SafeSmart designed two specialized crossovers to address Sunoco’s need for easy duct clearance. The first crossover provided seamless clearance over parallel ducts with AdaptaStep, offering Sunoco’s team a safe, efficient path through complex piping layouts, as seen below.  SOLUTION 2 ADAPTABLE Crossovers: Precise Access Over Obstacles  The second AdaptaStep crossover, paired with SafeSmart’s versatile AdjustaStairs, allowed for flexible installation around an existing metal deck and guardrail system, thanks to our adaptable support leg placement. With precise adjustments to meet Sunoco’s specific needs, this crossover ensured both safety and convenience on-site, without disturbing the existing infrastructure. SOLUTION 3 Heavy-Duty Ramp Solution: Adapting to Unforeseen Terrain Challenges For machinery access, Sunoco requested a heavy-duty drive-over ramp to cross a duct area. Prebuilt in our facility and shipped to the site, the ramp met Sunoco’s requirements for structural integrity and ease of transport. However, an unexpected slope onsite required further adjustments. SafeSmart’s Installation Team implemented on-the-spot modifications to adapt the ramp to the unique terrain, ensuring it maintained the quality and stability
