Platforms, Ramps, Rails, Guards and Rooftop Support Steelwork
These examples show the type of practical fabricated metalwork we can support for industrial sites, commercial buildings, contractors and engineering teams.

Roof access platforms for maintenance teams.
Roof access platforms are used where engineers need a safer route to rooftop plant, service runs or equipment. They help create a controlled walkway where standard access products do not suit the layout.
Wards can manufacture practical steel platforms around the required height, span, clearance and surrounding obstacles.
Platforms for avoiding ducting and cables.
Where ducting or cable routes cross a roof, a step-over or access bridge can provide a cleaner route without disturbing existing services.
This type of work is useful for HVAC contractors, facilities teams and mechanical services companies working around live building systems.


Access platforms for pipes, cables and service runs.
Industrial roofs often contain pipework and service routes that cannot be moved. A made-to-fit steel platform can bridge those obstacles and preserve usable access.
Important details include the span, height, fixing method, clearance, surrounding walkway and how often the area is accessed.
Raised access over roof obstacles.
Some access problems cannot be solved with standard components. Custom steelwork allows the platform or walkway to be shaped around the real conditions on the roof.
This is especially useful for commercial buildings, factories and plant-heavy sites where multiple services compete for space.


Steel access bridge between two roof areas.
When two roof areas sit apart or at different levels, a bridge platform can create a practical route for inspection, maintenance and plant servicing.
Wards can support steel access bridge requirements where the layout, clearance and walking route need to be considered together.
Platforms with posts for mounting HVAC equipment.
HVAC projects often need support steelwork to raise, position or mount equipment safely. Platforms with posts can help place plant in the right location while allowing for service routes and fixing requirements.
We support contractors with rooftop plant support, mounting frames and associated brackets.


Support bars for raising HVAC equipment.
Support bars can raise HVAC equipment over roof obstacles, improve clearance and help create a more practical service layout.
The details matter: height, spacing, feet, load path, contact points and the surrounding working area all affect the finished item.
Crash barrier guards for warehouses.
Crash barrier guards protect vulnerable areas inside warehouses, factories and industrial units. They are often used around racking, pedestrian routes, corners, doors and equipment.
For workplace safety guidance, see the HSE workplace transport guidance.


Rails for stairs, ramps and obstacles.
Guard rails are used where a site needs practical edge protection, guidance or separation around stairs, ramps, raised areas and walkways.
Rails can be made around the route, fixing points, opening sizes and the working environment.
Disability access ramp and practical access steelwork.
Access ramps create safer movement between different levels for people, equipment or site operations. Custom ramp work is useful where standard products do not suit the layout.
Ramps can be combined with rails, platforms and practical edge protection.


Trailer remodels, modifications and special builds.
Some jobs involve adapting or remodelling an existing item so it works for a new purpose. This is where practical workshop experience is especially valuable.
Wards can support one-off project work, alterations, frames, remodels and custom steelwork where an off-the-shelf item is not suitable.
Steel, Stainless Steel and Aluminium Metal Fabrication
Wards supports workshop manufacture using practical industrial materials such as mild steel, stainless steel, aluminium, plate, box section, tube, angle, mesh, tread plate and sheet metal depending on the job.
Our work can suit single items, replacement parts, repeat manufactured assemblies and project-specific steelwork for commercial and industrial environments.
