Bleacher access stair layouts are different from other traditional stair systems. Bleacher stairs require more extended widths, plus they need minimal rises. The standards for producing bleacher access stairs are extensive and often tough to manage, but our professionals at REDD Team will be ready to create bleacher stair setups that fit your site.
Your stairs must be prepared with various standards, plus they must be safe so that everyone can go up and down them without risk. We strive to create quality bleacher stairs that work for everyone.
What Is Necessary For Bleacher Stairs?
What makes bleacher access stairs different from regular ones? Bleacher stairs will directly connect to bleacher seating areas used at sporting venues. You can walk from your bleacher seat to the stairs in moments, but the stairs will still differ from what you usually find. For starters, the stairs will only have one handrail. They will also blend in with the rest of the bleachers in some situations, although they can be colored if you prefer.
There are many things that bleacher stairs will require for them to be functional and safe:
- The stairs should be wide enough to handle people going up and down the bleachers. Stairs that are at least 48 inches wide are ideal.
- The runs for each step should be at least 11 inches long. This total is enough to handle an average person’s foot.
- The rise for each step shouldn’t be too high. The rise can go from 4 to 8 inches. An additional step is necessary in cases where the rise is 8 inches or greater, while two steps should be added if the rise is 16 inches or more.
- Anti-slip markings and materials should also appear on each step. Anti-slip surfaces are necessary for bleacher steps, as some surfaces can become slippery due to rain, snow, humidity, or people spilling drinks.
- The handrail should appear in the middle of the stairs. This feature is necessary for both stairs in the middle of the bleachers and the ends.
- Openings between the steps are necessary for keeping rain and other items from building up. But the openings should still be small enough so a round 4-inch object cannot pass through the space.
We Can Help With All Bleacher Layouts
Your bleachers will require the best possible stair setups. You can reach us at Redd Team for help preparing a bleacher setup that works for you.
We can create a bleacher stair setup that fits your unique situation. We can start by reviewing your current bleacher surface and finding an arrangement that works for your stairs. Our effort includes measuring the necessary length of each step while figuring out how to prepare the steps in the right spot.
You can also request that your bleacher stairs come in different colors. Creating a distinguishable layout for these stairs is critical for helping people find them, especially when visibility is obstructed due to weather or extensive crowds.
