Crossover Walkway Systems

THE LIGHTWEIGHT, HIGH-STRENGTH MODULAR ACCESS SYSTEM WITH LIMITLESS CONFIGURATIONS.

AdaptaStep bridges the gap between cumbersome, time-consuming multi-component systems and rigid, one-size-fits-all solutions that fail to meet your specific requirements. This innovative crossover walkway system is engineered for flexibility, allowing you to create customized access solutions that align perfectly with your project’s needs.

AdaptaStep features minimal pre-engineered components, making it easy to assemble and configure into endless shapes and sizes. Whether you need to cross over pipes, conveyors, or ducting, navigate around machinery, or connect multiple levels, AdaptaStep adapts seamlessly to any environment. Its modular design ensures that you can tailor the system to fit the unique challenges of your site, providing safe and efficient access wherever you need it.

Lightweight yet durable, AdaptaStep excels in tight or restricted spaces where other solutions may fall short. The system is designed for quick and simple installation, requiring no specialized tools or heavy machinery—an ideal, cost-effective choice for overcoming access challenges without sacrificing safety or performance. Perfect for a wide range of industries, AdaptaStep delivers a fast, reliable, and scalable solution for projects of any scale.

MINIMAL TOOLS REQUIRED

AdaptaStep is designed for quick and efficient installation on site—with no welding, cranes, or specialty tools required. All components are connected using durable bolted joints, allowing crews to assemble the system with standard tools and minimal labor.

The handrails are secured to the side rails using a proprietary ‘tee-slot’ system, which eliminates the need for time-consuming alignment with predrilled holes. The included tee bolts slide directly into the extrusion channel, allowing for easy positioning and adjustment. A simple twist with a common power driver locks each handrail into place—no measuring, drilling, or complex hardware needed.

This smart connection system makes installation faster, safer, and more accurate, even in challenging site conditions—saving both time and labor costs.

Built for Endless Expansion

AdaptaStep is built for total modularity—designed to adapt to any length, height, or layout without custom fabrication. The system uses high-strength aluminum extrusions that nest together in 4-inch increments, enabling precise, tool-light expansion in any direction.

Each platform can be joined in-line to create uninterrupted walkways or catwalks, with single-span runs reaching up to 20 feet. The nested connection system ensures seamless alignment and structural integrity, even over long distances or uneven surfaces.

Whether you’re crossing rooftops, connecting structures, or building out a custom access path, AdaptaStep expands with your needs—delivering strength, flexibility, and ease of configuration on any site.

Precision Over Pre-Made

AdaptaStep is not a one-size-fits-all solution—it’s engineered to adapt to the unique demands of each jobsite. With a fully modular design and precise 4-inch adjustability, every system is configured to match site-specific requirements, terrain, and clearances.

No two setups are identical. Whether spanning complex rooftops, uneven ground, or irregular layouts, AdaptaStep conforms to your environment with accuracy and confidence. Our team works closely with clients to ensure every solution fits right the first time—without compromise.

This site-specific flexibility ensures safety, efficiency, and long-term performance across industries and applications nationwide.
