Great product for our application. The only reason we have ever have to replace our steps is due to them getting crushed under our lift platforms!

FAQs

Quick answers to common questions!

Who is Safety Step?

Safety Step is a manufacturer of high-quality, heavy-duty step stools designed for industrial, medical, transportation, recreational vehicle (RV), commercial, and household applications. Safety Step has been manufacturing step stools since 1995, with facilities in Roanoke, Virginia, and Youngstown, Ohio.

What makes Safety Step stools different from ordinary step stools?

Safety Step stools are specifically engineered for stability, durability, and safety. All models feature anti-tip leg designs, non-slip surfaces, durable materials, and construction designed for demanding environments. Safety Step also performs laboratory testing and quality-control inspections on its products.

Are Safety Step stools suitable for industrial use?

Yes, when choosing an industrial step stool, it is important to look beyond the height and platform size. An industrial step stool should be designed for stability, structural strength, repeated use, and the environment where it will be used.

Safety Step designs its industrial step stools to surpass applicable ANSI load ratings. The company also laboratory tests its designs for conditions including weight loading, compression, and fatigue.

Safety features such as an anti-tip leg design, non-slip platform surface, durable construction, and properly engineered load capacity can be especially important in industrial environments where employees may use a step repeatedly throughout the day.
