ErectaStep Rooftop Stairs, Platforms & Crossovers
Safe, Modular Access for Rooftop Equipment and Maintenance
Safe rooftop access is essential for maintaining commercial roofing systems, mechanical equipment, and building infrastructure. Greenwood Industries provides ErectaStep modular access systems designed to create secure pathways, stairs, and work platforms for rooftop service areas. These prefabricated aluminum systems improve safety, simplify compliance with OSHA access standards, and reduce the risks associated with climbing over piping, ductwork, and rooftop equipment.
ErectaStep solutions are engineered for fast installation and adaptable configurations, making them ideal for both new construction and retrofit applications. Greenwood Industries evaluates rooftop conditions and installs access systems that improve safe movement across the roof while protecting roof membranes and surrounding equipment.

FAQS
Common Questions
THE ANSWER
Facilities should consider modular access systems when rooftop equipment is difficult or unsafe to reach. This is common when workers must climb over piping, navigate mechanical systems, or access elevated service platforms without proper stairs or walkways.
THE ANSWER
ErectaStep systems are designed for complex rooftops with pipes, ducts, mechanical units, or elevation changes. Crossovers, stairs, and platforms can be configured to provide safe access around these obstacles.
THE ANSWER
Yes. The modular design makes ErectaStep ideal for retrofit applications. Systems can be configured and installed on existing rooftops without major structural changes.
THE ANSWER
Designated walkways and crossovers reduce uncontrolled foot traffic across the roof surface. This helps prevent membrane damage, punctures, and wear that often occur when maintenance personnel travel across unprotected areas.
