Driven by stringent safety regulations, and escalating replacement costs, building owners are adding permanent maintenance platforms around this heavy, complex machinery. Performing repairs and service is safer, and far more efficient, when personnel don’t have to worry about shaky footing! As you can see by the images below, this fabricated metal infrastructure takes many shapes. A 4-foot stairway often leads from roof to platform. Sometimes a fixed vertical ladder is used. The platforms themselves might be a horseshoe or an “L,” depending on the HVAC design. The skilled custom metal fabricators at 3Up Metal Works have built platforms to accommodate a dizzying array of HVAC configurations. Catwalks are often installed to get from one space to another, sometimes snaking through narrow spots.
