Maintenance steps and assembly platforms

Mobile or stationary access systems for maintenance work on lorries, buses, trailers and other commercial vehicles.

All-round railing and slide-out panels on the platform ensure users can work safely.

Does working at great heights necessarily mean high risk? Not when you are using ZARGES roof access platforms. The cleverly designed safety features on the roof access platforms give users the peace of mind to concentrate fully on their core tasks. The platforms can be perfectly adapted to each vehicle, thus allowing maintenance and repair work to be carried out on a vehicle's roof with speed and efficiency.

Your benefits:

  • Safe to use thanks to all-round railings and slide-out panels for bridging the gap between the vehicle and platform
  • Adjustable height
  • Stable and easy to manoeuvre thanks to heavy-duty three-wheel  castors

  • The platform can be fitted with either a staircase or a fixed ladder.

Roof access stands for regular servicing and maintenance

ZARGES stationary roof access stands are used by large maintenance companies, public transport operators and workshops for servicing and maintaining buses, lorries and trucks. These long access stands allow users to easily access the entire length of a vehicle. Users no longer have to climb up and down frequently to reposition their access equipment, thus reducing the amount of time it takes to complete any repair, servicing or maintenance work.

Your benefits:

  • A wide range of accessories, expansion options and modules, such as electrical installations, compressed air supply, cranes mounted on the ceiling or raised on stands, sensors and control systems
  • Fixed or adjustable height
  • Can be suspended from the ceiling or raised on stands

Highly mobile with adjustable height: the ZARGES tanker ladder provides a safe and easy way of accessing tankers and tank trailers. It allows users to safely operate, inspect, clean and maintain a tank. In addition, the height of the tanker ladder can be easily adjusted while its easy-running castors make moving it completely effortless. Double-sided handrails and a large safety cage further enhance safety.

Your benefits:

  • 30 mm deep rungs
  • Easy height adjustment
  • Secure handgrip and footing
  • Height can be adjusted from 2,770 to 4,100 mm

De-icing platform for lorries, trailers and buses

Drivers are responsible for ensuring the safety of their vehicles as well as minimising risk to other road users. Lorries and buses must always be free of ice slabs, snow and dirt before they are driven off.

ZARGES de-icing platform is the optimal access equipment for removing ice and dirt quickly from lorries, trailers and buses.

Your benefits:

  • Long modular platform
  • Open-grid steel surface with R12 slip-resistance
