Specialist Shot Blasting for Access Infrastructure

About This Service

Our fixed ladder and step-over platform shot blasting service provides comprehensive surface preparation for industrial access systems. We remove rust, old paint, and corrosion from fixed ladders, caged ladder systems, step-over platforms, and access infrastructure, preparing them for protective coatings or galvanizing. Whether you're maintaining existing access systems or preparing new installations, our precision techniques ensure optimal corrosion protection and compliance with working at height regulations.

Our Process

1

Safety Assessment

We inspect the access system to assess condition, identify structural concerns, and determine appropriate blast media and preparation requirements.

2

Component Preparation

Ladder sections, platforms, and safety cages are prepared for blasting. Critical connection points and safety features are protected as required.

3

Shot Blasting

Using appropriate blast media and pressure settings, we systematically clean all access system surfaces including rungs, side rails, platforms, and safety cages.

4

Quality Verification

We conduct thorough inspections to ensure all surfaces meet the required cleanliness and profile specifications for coating application.

5

Coating & Installation

Cleaned components are prepared for protective coating or galvanizing, with timing coordinated for installation and compliance with safety regulations.

Applications

Fixed vertical ladders
Caged ladder systems
Step-over platforms
Industrial access ladders
Roof access systems
Tank access ladders
Building access infrastructure
Offshore platform ladders

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, we provide mobile shot blasting services at your location. For ladders requiring galvanizing, we ensure complete coverage and cleanliness. We can work with ladders in situ or coordinate if sections need removal for access.

We typically recommend hot-dip galvanizing for maximum corrosion protection and durability, especially for outdoor or harsh environment applications. For indoor systems, powder coating or high-performance paint systems may be appropriate. We can advise on the most suitable system for your specific requirements.
