G-Raff Safety Stairs are specifically designed for various industries and applications that require accessing the top of a vehicle. The Safety Stair is designed for applications where the working range exceeds angles greater than 15" above or below the platform height. The Safety Stair provides a solution for various applications where access is a problem.

Safety Stairs provide safe access from the loading rack or dock to an elevated walkway during a loading/unloading process. Our Safety Stairs are designed with nonskid self-leveling grip strut treads.

Safety Stairs can be manufactured from carbon steel, aluminum, and fiberglass (or a combination of each). Benko Products, Inc. can design a Safety Stair to meet any application that your operation would require.

Maneuvering the Safety Stair is performed by hand. Simple and compact tension spring balance method makes all movements easy. A slight push or pull positions the stair for safe access to the vehicle. Each unit is equipped with a locking mechanism for storage in the vertical position.

Combine these features with several advantages listed below to make G-Raff your choice.

  • Folding tubular handrails with midrails on each side of the stair for increased operator safety and compliance with OSHA standards as we interpret them for 200 lbs. directional force.
  • Neoprene bumpers to eliminate damage to the vehicles being serviced.
  • Main axles are equipped with self-aligning permanently lubed bearings. The self-leveling tread axles on aluminum models have bronze bushings for low maintenance.
  • A variety of finishes are available: standard safety yellow enamel, hot dipped galvanized, uncoated or anodizing for aluminum models.
  • Optional side mount brackets make side mounting to your existing structure easy.
  • Optional welded stops prevent air from traveling beyond a predetermined position.
