Strength and Versatility
You might be surprised to learn that aluminum can be as strong as steel, but that’s the case with REDD Team stairs and ramps. How can that be the case? The secret is the special 6000 series alloys we use. These alloys make our aluminum strong, while maintaining its lightweight characteristics. Aluminum is 30 percent lighter than steel, and much less expensive.
REDD Team accessibility system components are also renowned for their versatility. Say you need stairs and ramps for a portable classroom or a temporary building. You may one day need to move your stairs or ramps at a later date. It’s extremely easy to do that with our products – much easier than if they were made of wooden, steel or concrete.
Other Reasons Aluminum Should Be Your Material of Choice
Strength and versatility are obviously important. Those qualities alone are enough to make aluminum the superior option when compared to any other material, such as steel, wood or concrete, commonly used to make stairs and ramps. But there are several other reasons why aluminum is simply better. Here are just a few.
- Safety – Steel ramps and stairs come with handrails, of course. Would you want to touch a steel handrail on a 100-degree day? Unless you have special gloves, the answer is, “No.” But you’ll never have to worry about that with aluminum. The reason is aluminum offers superior thermal conductivity. No matter how hot it may get outside, or even how cold the temperatures may get, you’ll always be able to safely touch aluminum.
- Flexibility – All of our accessibility system components use flexible joints and footings. You don’t have to anchor our stairs and ramps to the ground in order for them to work. Why should you care? Because when the ground shifts, aluminum can shift as well. Steel joints can’t – and that leaves them vulnerable to failing.
- Slip resistance – Both steel and wood can get very slippery when they become wet. That’s not a problem with aluminum, because it does an excellent job of resisting moisture. You can rest assured that anyone using your stairs and ramps will always be safe and secure.
