Ascent Aluminium Walkway

Eurosafe designs, supplies, and installs the Ascent aluminium grillage system which is:

• Incredibly high static quality

• Easy and quick to assemble

• Highly stable

These functional advantages allow us to produce walkway systems from simple 600mm wide flat panels fitted directly to the roof sheet to unique levelled hinged systems incorporating tapers and level changes to cope with the complexity of the roof's geometry.

Eurosafe will provide a full design service for this product supplying our client with a full set of drawings or 3D models detailing our proposal, and engineering calculations to substantiate its suitability for use. The panels can be made in a wide range of widths, depths and profiles as well as various finishes to ensure that we give you the product that exactly meets your requirements.

The aluminium roof access walkway and handrail have been designed as a lightweight roof access system for general cleaning and maintenance purposes. The system is designed to B.S. 6399: part 1: 1996. Aluminium walkways provide a high quality aesthetically pleasing finish which is often difficult to achieve with other materials, whilst the panel retains a high residual value and is fully recyclable. To enhance the appearance of the walkway panels further, they can be either anodised or paint powder coat finished.

The aluminium walkway system is made up of lightweight panels which are approximately one-third of the weight of steel panels of similar form and are virtually maintenance-free. It offers the benefits of a modular system that can be altered to suit each specific requirement, with a non-slip serrated surface and the ability to be installed with or without handrails to both sides or to one side only. The system can be levelled to 10° and can be fitted to numerous roof types, although it is especially suited to standing seam-type roofs.

The grillage system can be designed to incorporate steps and ladders to provide a full access system where required.
