Your building’s generator is essential to your property, especially if you have sensitive materials that require consistent power. You’ll require regular access to your generator for everything from maintenance to repair to general analysis. But the generator is also a sensitive material that requires extreme care, plus it might be tough to access some parts of that unit. REDD Team can help you create new generator access stairs that work for your space.
What Do You Get Access To?
Based on how most generators are designed, the features on your generator that you’ll require access to will be a few feet off of the ground. These points include control panels and fuses for your generator and any vents or filters necessary for keeping it working. REDD Team can get new stairs that provide simple access to all these points.
Our steps are suitable for generators in both indoor and outdoor environments. Since we use aluminum materials in our steps, these steps will not warp or wear. Every stair setup is unique, and you’ll need help finding a solution that works well for your space, so make sure you see how our team can serve your needs when getting your stairs ready.
How Are the Stairs Designed?
The design for your REDD Team stairs will vary by generator layout, but expect the stairs to have anywhere from four to six steps. The steps will lead to a platform at the top that is wide and long enough to cover the entire access area. A square or rectangular shape is necessary for providing a good design.
The stairs will also feature barriers on the sides of the steps and platform. The barriers should be high enough to protect the workers, plus they should offer open spaces for accessing whatever parts of a generator require help.
You can also get your stairs painted in various colors to make them easier to spot. Yellow is an ideal color for how it’s easier for most people to process, but anything distinguishable from the rest of the generator’s body will help.
A Safe Surface Is Necessary
The surface should also be safe for people to climb up and down, as the stairs will be exposed to various weather issues and temperature extremes. A grooved surface on the bottom helps keep one’s feet steady, while smooth handrails and barriers can help people keep a safe grip without risking slipping.
The surfaces should also be a few inches from the main generator body. The distance is necessary to keep any shocks or vibrations from the generator from getting in the way of whatever someone manages. Our workers can check on your generator and see how we can position your steps to keep them from interfering with anything in a spot.
