Stairs | RoofStair Series
Freestanding, counterweighted ladder systems designed to provide safe, compliant access over rooftop elevation changes
Our Modular Stairs for Rooftop Access are designed for fast installation, durability, and adaptability, making them an ideal solution for safe, efficient rooftop navigation on commercial and industrial buildings. Constructed from high-quality, lightweight aluminum and steel, these systems help reduce labour costs and project downtime, while supporting Canadian fall protection regulations.
Compared to traditional welded stair systems, our modular rooftop stairs dramatically simplify installation and are ideal for both temporary and permanent applications.
Key Features
Each rooftop stair system is pre-engineered to meet or exceed CCOHS, ANSI, and provincial OH&S requirements, and includes:
Corrosion-resistant steel and aluminum construction
Non-slip stair treads to ensure safe footing in wet or icy conditions
Sturdy handrails for reliable support and fall prevention
Counterweighted, non-penetrating baseplates that protect roof membranes and eliminate the need for drilling
For metal roofs or sites requiring a more permanent solution, we offer clamp-on and fixed-base installation options to suit various rooftop types.
Configurable for Any Project
Standard Stair Width: 36 inches – optimized for worker movement and material handling
Modular Design: Easily customized for different rooftop layouts, height requirements, and elevations
Temporary or Permanent Use: Flexible for short-term jobs or long-term rooftop access solutions
