Track Ladders: Quick and Easy Access to Vertical Storage
Track ladders are designed to provide safe and efficient access to elevated areas in various settings. Mounted on tracks, these ladders can be easily moved along walls, making them perfect for libraries, warehouses, and retail spaces. With a smooth sliding mechanism and secure locking options, track ladders offer convenience and stability. Available in Single- and Dual-Track models and constructed of heavy-duty steel. The Single-Track model is also available in fine wood construction.
Single Track Model:
THE SINGLE TRAK™, mounted shelf ladder is designed to provide easy access to shelves in narrow aisles and cramped storage areas. These ladders have a smooth rolling upper track fixture mounted on straight track at the front shelf edge. Five-inch wheels with weight actuated brakes allow easy movement of the ladder along the entire length of the track. The rugged, all-welded steel construction features 5″D x 14″W solid steps with abrasive treads. Fine wood construction is also available.
When in use, the ladder is positioned at an 80° climbing angle. The standard bottom wheel brake prevents movement during use. An exclusive design permits storage of the ladder in a tight vertical position against the shelves when not in use and allows easy passage of people or equipment in the aisle.
To select a SINGLE TRAK™ mounted ladder, follow these steps:
- From the chart, select the proper model based on WORKING HEIGHT required for your application.
- Based on the model selected, specify the required track height from the floor to the top of the track (in 1″ increments). Stay within ranges shown.
Dual Track Model:
THE DUAL TRAK™ LADDER is designed to provide safe, convenient access to tall shelving on both sides of narrow aisles in storage areas. A 33% increase in vertical storage space is typically achieved.
The key to the Dual Track™ ladder is the overhead carriage on which the ladder is mounted. This heavy-duty carriage is mounted on dual tracks attached to shelving on both sides of the aisle. The carriage and ladder assembly rolls smoothly on these tracks along the length of the storeroom aisle. Swivel casters on the bottom of the ladder assist in this easy movement and the ladder sets firmly on upper pad legs while in use. Additionally, the brake ladder rolls from side to side across the aisle on a track mounted onto the carriage. This permits easy access to stock on each side and walk-by clearance. A handrail extends above the ladder for use while standing on the upper steps.
