A stair tower is a tall surface that can cover multiple levels in your workplace. You can install one of these towers on the side of a building and use it as a safe emergency exit. But your tower must be designed to ensure accessibility while covering your entire property. REDD Team can help you design and build new American-made aluminum stair towers for your property.
How Will Your Tower Be Arranged?
You’ll require a few things in your stair tower:
- A plan for how high the tower will be
- Where the landings for your tower will be, particularly for each floor on a property
- The distance between each landing helps you see how you should design each stairwell
- The anchors and posts necessary for keeping the tower in its place, including anything that might affix themselves to the building itself
- Proper guardrails, especially when people get up higher on the tower
REDD Team can help you see how to get one of these aluminum stair towers ready for your space.
How Are the Landings Arranged?
Your stairs will also require two sets of landings for each floor. One landing at the door will lead to one floor, with another landing at the halfway point. The halfway landing will support how the stairs will go in different directions between each floor, allowing the stair tower to remain compact while covering each opening.
Whatever you do with your landings, there should be enough clearance at the bottom and top of each stairwell. The clearance is necessary to allow a person to reach a door or switch directions on the stairs safely.
Aluminum Keeps the Tower Stable
You’ll also see your tower will remain safe through any condition, as the aluminum material for the tower will maintain its shape in more conditions and not risk damage. Aluminum can also handle as much weight as heavier and bulkier steel materials.
We can also work with many additional features for your tower:
- Aluminum posts on the corners can keep the design in one place.
- Reinforcement bars can also add further weight support.
- Anchors can work on the bottom to keep the posts in their place. These anchors can be fastened to the ground and even supported with cement to keep them from slipping.
What About Single-Story Towers?
You can also get a new aluminum stair tower ready if you only need steps going from the ground to a single higher story. We can design a tower layout that helps people reach your higher floor. We’ll determine if you need a landing in the middle, or you can request a compact design that requires a landing for when the steps switch direction.
You’ll require aluminum stair towers for situations where you need stairs that can reach many floors on your property.
