Curved-Wall Tunnel Ladders

Custom Access for Tunnel Service Work

The SafeSmart Tunnel Service Access Ladder System is designed for access, installation, inspection, and maintenance work within road and rail tunnels. Unlike standard straight ladders, this custom system can be shaped around curved tunnel walls, installed services, and restricted work areas.

Each configuration is developed around the tunnel environment and intended work activity. Locating pins can engage with designated tunnel mounting points, while hook-supported configurations can locate over service pipes or other approved structural features. This gives crews a practical access solution that can be placed, relocated, and reused as work progresses through the tunnel.
