THE STEP-UP

The StepUp is the only pole-mounted platform on the market that enables proper work and body positioning for linemen working on steel, fiberglass, and other non-climbable poles. This patented two-tier working platform reduces fatigue, increases safety, and enhances productivity.

What is it?

Built with durability in mind, this kit offers an extra layer of defense for automated devices, reducing the risk of costly damages or disruptions.The kit features a unique design that shields padlocks, making it nearly impossible for bolt cutters or other tools to access and cut the lock. By allowing the use of existing utility padlocks, it simplifies key management and lowers overall costs. The straightforward installation process uses pre-drilled templates and included hardware, making setup quick and hassle-free.

 

 

How it Works?

  1. Lift & Secure: The StepUp is hoisted into position using a handline.
  2. Strap & Lock: A nylon ratchet strap with a D-ring locks it into place securely.
  3. Ready for Action: The platform offers a stable, slip-resistant surface for working safely and efficiently.
