A constant challenge when access is required to heavy plants, aircraft, and other large vehicles is getting access to all required areas. Often, a variety of platforms is required to achieve all the access that is required. In addition, due to the irregular shapes of the equipment involved, a cantilevered platform is often required to reach over obstructions and right into the service areas.

For example, when accessing an aircraft for maintenance, users may need to reach over the fuselage or wings to reach certain hatches, antennas, and other areas.

What ReachDeck does is give you an all-in-one solution to cover more requirements and access points than any other solution available.

The platform is height adjustable through a range of heights via either a manual winch or hydraulic adjustment (both options are available). This adjustment is simple, and a fail-safe locking mechanism ensures that the platform is extremely solid and stable regardless of which height it’s set at.

Wide, safe stair treads provide access to the top platform. These are ridged, non-slip materials and provide perfect access for men, materials, and tools to the top platform.

These treads self-level as the stair is adjusted in height.

The top platform itself is cantilevered to reach out right over any potential obstacle to the work area.

It’s constructed from raised and swaged perforated plates for superior traction in all conditions. Additionally, an oil drip & drain tray can be added underneath the platform. This ensures that grease, oil, and any other moisture can drain away from the work surface.

Other common extras include.

• Fall restraint points on the top platform
• Power and air inlets and outlets
• Telescopic guardrails to eliminate any gaps in the work surface
• Tool or laptop trays
• Towable chassis

The platform itself is mobile on heavy-duty, lockable wheels. A levelling bubble enables users to check that the platform is stable and ready for use.

Usage Scenarios

• Aircraft Maintenance: Ideal for mechanics who need secure access over aircraft wings and fuselage to service hatches, antennas, and other components.
• Heavy Plant Servicing: Provides versatile, adjustable access to different levels on large machinery, enabling maintenance and repair tasks with efficiency.
• Large Vehicle Operations: Assists in reaching critical points on an array of large vehicles, from construction equipment to transportation fleets.
• Custom Work Environments: Thanks to its full customisation potential, ReachDeck can be tailored for unique access needs in any industry requiring precision and adaptability.
