Nextep FRP Ladders - Installation
Field assembly must include the following procedures.
- Ladders are laid out on a flat surface, bracket side down to avoid scratching the stiles.
- Sections are placed in sequence according to the supplied plan.
- All bracket fasteners to be loosened off, as brackets are tightened prior to transport and will need considerable movement for assembly to be achieved. A rubber mallet (not steel) should be used on the ends of stiles and not the rungs to aid in the assembly process.
- All fixing bolts to be suitably tightened once assembly of individual sections is completed.
- Assembled ladders should be turned sideways for carrying and lifting, to avoid bending at the joining bracket areas.

The installation area must be assessed for best positioning of the ladder onto flat wall surfaces. The ladder has a four bolt-fixing configuration on the top bracket. Coloured reflectors on the rungs follow International Safety Codes for Red/LHS and Green/RHS.
Fasteners should be 316 Stainless steel Chemical bolts (12mm X 80mm) or 316 Stainless steel Sleeve anchor type bolts sealed with a chemical resistant epoxy. This will ensure similar life expectancies from both ladder and fixing anchors.
