Why Choose Aluminum for a Safety Roof Top Platform and Walkway Access System? From challenging offshore environments to intricate roof top safety platform and walkway projects, aluminum emerges as the most adaptable, efficient, and secure choice for access construction. Lightweight An aluminum safety platform and walkway structure weighs 40-50% less than a comparable steel design, resulting in significant savings on supporting structures, materials, and assembly costs. The weight reduction also makes installing aluminum safety platforms and walkways simpler, more flexible, and easier to handle, fabricate, lift, and install. Assembly time is reduced from weeks (steel) to months without the need for welding, painting, or blasting. Low Maintenance Properly designed aluminum safety access systems are virtually maintenance-free due to their non-corrosive nature. This means that an aluminum safety access system can often outlast the structure it is placed on, leading to drastically reduced maintenance costs - especially for elevated structures where maintenance can be costly and dangerous. Cost Effective Aluminum alloy safety platforms and walkways are highly cost-effective compared to steel constructions, with lower initial purchase costs in some instances. When factoring in maintenance, inspection, and other ancillary savings, the overall life cycle cost of using aluminum is significantly less than other materials. Safety Aluminum alloy safety platforms and walkways have fast thermal dissipation, allowing heat to be channeled away from hot spots, ensuring worker safety.
