Aluminum Stairs for Schools in Santa Ana, California

REDD Team is a product brand of Hydro Extrusion North America, part of the world’s largest aluminum extrusion company. Produced in the United States at Hydro’s Delhi, Louisiana extrusion facility, REDD Team is a nationally known access products brand that offers aluminum stair and ramp solutions in standard and custom configurations.

REDD Team Access Systems

REDD Team Universal Stairs are built of fabricated aluminum and meet a wide range of codes, including ADA and IBC. They also comply with the regulations of California’s Division of the State Architect (DSA), that govern the construction of buildings in California and promote accessibility.

Universal Stairs are perfect for portable building access and ideal for long- or short-term applications. The modular nature of the Universal Stair System means it is easily reusable for a wide range of applications. The REDD Team Universal Stair offers complete ADA compliance and access when coupled with its counterpart, the Universal Wheelchair Ramp System.

REDD Team’s aluminum walkways are another excellent choice for schools and municipalities. They provide General Code Compliant access to portable classrooms and site built or modular buildings and can be covered to protect pedestrians from weather.

We manufacture our access systems from 6000 series aluminum and alloys 6061-T6, 6063-T5 or 6063-T6 for structural strength and toughness. They are equipped with smooth, continuous handrails and a slip-resistant walking surface for safe and easy access. They can be designed and manufactured in custom lengths and sizes with adjustable heights for greater versatility.

Why Choose Aluminum Instead of Masonry, Wood or Steel

Aluminum access solutions offer safety that is simply not available in systems built from other materials, such as steel, wood and masonry. Aluminum’s exceptional characteristics include:

  • Lightweight, yet strong – Steel is about 2.5 times heavier than aluminum. This means that your aluminum stairs will be easy to lift and move whenever necessary. They will also support heavy loads. A standard 215-pound stairway will support loads in excess of 1,600 pounds.
  • Aesthetically pleasing – Aluminum stairways are attractive. They have a naturally occurring protective oxide coating that makes the aluminum resistant to rust and corrosion, and can also be anodized or powder-coated in a variety of colors to blend with any environment.
  • Good thermal conductivity – In cold temperatures, aluminum gets stronger without losing quality, making it excellent for cold weather applications. The metal also conducts heat well and remains cool to the touch, even on hot days.
  • Flexibility – Aluminum stairways use floating footings and joints that are not permanently attached to the ground. This means they are capable of withstanding ground shifts in the event of an earthquake. They will also resist damage from rising water levels because their construction is more open and sections can be easily removed.
  • Low maintenance – Aluminum stairs, ramps, platforms, and walkways are durable, non-corrosive and non-combustible. Unlike steel and wood, they do not need to be refinished, repainted or treated, and maintenance costs are very low.
