Safe reliable and robust access to the top of tank trucks, rail cars and ISO tank containers from a platform/loading rack is of paramount importance for safe and productive loading, unloading, venting and inspecting operations.
WOODFIELD FOLDING STAIRS are manual or powered operation for lowering in to position to access the top of a tank from the 'out of the way' stored position. Once the safe working task is completed the Folding Stairs is simply raised back to the stored position
