Build industrial stairway and platform solutions with IPS modular aluminum framing. IPS structural framing, fasteners, panels, doors, hardware, and accessories can be configured to meet application requirements with a durable, high-performance solution. IPS also supports engineered kits, machining, and complete assemblies to help move projects from concept to completion.
Design Industrial Access to Suit Your Exact Requirements
Create industrial stairs and work platforms to suit the space available, the working height required, and the access needs of the application. Because IPS uses a modular framing approach, solutions are easier to adapt, expand, and reconfigure as requirements change.

Industrial Stairs and Platforms Based on the IPS Modular Framing System
IPS modular framing can be used to build industrial access structures as standalone constructions or as part of a larger machine-support or work-area solution. IPS offers structural profiles, panels, wire mesh, door hardware, brackets, fasteners, feet, and related accessories that support complete assemblies rather than isolated components.
Industrial Stairs and Machine Access Steps
Different applications call for different access solutions. IPS modular framing makes it possible to create industrial stairs and machine access steps sized to the available footprint and access requirement while maintaining the flexibility to modify the structure later if needed.
Work and Industrial Platforms
IPS framing can support work platforms, service platforms, and elevated access areas using compatible structural profiles and modular components. IPS materials are already used for machine bases and frames, workstations and tables, enclosures and guarding, and material handling systems, making the system well suited for broader access-platform applications.
Guard Rails, Panels, Doors, and Related Components
IPS offers panel and infill options including polycarbonate, HPL, expanded PVC, PVC-coated wire mesh, and aluminum composite, along with panel mounting, doors, rollers, hinges, latches, and related hardware. That allows an IPS access solution to extend beyond framing alone.
Benefits of IPS Modular Access Solutions
Use IPS modular framing to create industrial access solutions that are easier to adapt, easier to source in the format you need, and easier to integrate with compatible IPS components.
Flexible by Design
Broad Component Compatibility
Multiple Delivery Options
IPS modular framing supports modification and expansion as requirements change.
Profiles, panels, doors, fasteners, and accessories can be combined across a wide range of IPS structural applications.
Choose bundles, kits, or complete assemblies depending on your labor capacity, timeline, and installation needs.
