FAST, TEMPORARY ACCESS FOR THE STATION

Application
Public Building
Location
London
System
Fully Compliant Ramp & Step System
Service Package
Rapid Rental

REQUIREMENT:

One of the station's main entrances was temporarily blocked off due to construction works. Consequently, a short-term access route from an alternative entrance was needed for both able-bodied and disabled users.

 

The client hired our modular access systems to fulfil the brief. They were selected for several reasons:

  • Unlike single-use wood or concrete alternatives, our modular systems can be reused in different configurations in other temporary projects. 
  • They can be dismantled within a few hours with no waste that ends up in landfills.
  • With a weight capacity of 1,000 kg, they can successfully accommodate various types of passengers with additional equipment, including wheelchairs, suitcases, mobility scooters, pushchairs, and bikes.
  • They fully comply with Part M and K of the Building Regulations.

DESIGN PAHSE:

 Our in-house design team generated 3D & 2D CAD drawings of the system, which were provided to the client along with their quotation.

INSTALLATION:

Despite the tight deadline of just three days and two nights, our team efficiently installed a ramp system with four entry points and a connecting step system.

The systems fully complied with Parts M and K of the Building Regulations.

At the end of the hire period, the systems were dismantled and repurposed for other projects, preventing landfill waste - unlike single-use wood or concrete alternatives.

This project demonstrates our ability to deliver swift, effective, and eco-friendly solutions under pressure. 

 FEATURES INCLUDED:

  • Infill Handrail - This component is designed to prevent users from climbing or falling through gaps.
  • Yellow Tread - This safety feature aids individuals with impaired vision in identifying the system's edge and any changes in level.
  • Trombone Ends - These additions are placed at the ends of a Rapid Ramp to prevent clothes from snagging.
  • Mesh Platform - The self-draining mesh allows water to pass through, preventing water accumulation on the surface.
  • Continuous Handrail - This handrail system ensures that users always have a support to hold onto.
  • Standard colour: Black - The systems come in a powder-coated black finish, ensuring durability that surpasses conventional paint.
  • Rest Platform - A 5-meter rest platform for users to pause.
  • 1100mm High Rail - Handrails attaching to any level sections.

EXTRA FEATURES INCLUDED:

  • Solid Hoarding - This skirt is purposefully designed to deter unauthorised access to the underside of the ramp, making it a frequent choice for schools and other public buildings.
  • Yellow Mid-Handrail - A lower handrail system for young children and wheelchair users, offering visibility due to the reflective nature of yellow.
  • Fully Compliant Step Unit - Compliance with Building Regulations Documents M and K.
  • GRP (Glass Reinforced Plastic) -  A slip-resistant and non-corrosive surface, ideal for high footfall areas like schools and other public spaces.
