Mezzanine Stair Features
As the manufacturer, we can design mezzanine stairs to your specifications… however unique. Since units are prefabricated and bolt together, there is no need for custom fabrication, welding, and time-consuming engineering. Our mezzanine stairs save you precious time and money.
Easy Installation
Our mezzanine stairs are modular and bolt together seamlessly.
Code Compliant
Our mezzanine stairs comply with IBC and OSHA regulations and can meet local building codes.
Reconfigurable
Because the system is modular, ramps, stairs and railings can be reused or reconfigured as your needs change.
Modular Design
Modular mezzanine stairs, platform landings, legs, and handrails bolt together without any on-site welding.
Custom Layouts
Our team of engineers will design a mezzanine stair configuration layout just for you. Professional engineer stamps are available.
Leveling Legs
Platform legs have 8” of adjustability for uneven ground or ongoing adjustments.
100% Aluminum – Long Lasting
The entire line of APEX products will never rust, warp, or rot. Components are low maintenance and will last much longer than wood or steel.
HPD/LEED/ESG
Because our products are modular, repurposable, and contain 32.5% to 75% recycled content, including 50% to 65% pre-consumer and up to 20% post-consumer recycled scrap, they can help contribute to several LEED v4.1 credits and other green building rating systems.
Slip-Resistant Decking
APEX stairs come standard with an aggressive, heavy-duty 3” channel grip strut grating that provides maximum, multi-directional slip resistance. Other decking options are also available.
