GRP Grating Platforms. Generally used to bridge over low-lying services like pipework, electrical cables etc. Can also be used as a podium to elevate to a higher work area.

GRP Step Over Platform

Our GRP Step Over Platform provides a safe, durable solution for navigating low-lying obstacles such as pipework, electrical cables and floor-mounted services. Constructed from high-strength GRP grating combined with pultruded GRP I-Beams, this platform offers exceptional stability and long-term resistance to corrosion, chemicals and weathering.

Designed for industrial environments, maintenance teams and plant rooms, the platform creates a secure step-up/step-over point that helps operatives access higher areas safely. The integrated anti-slip nosing on both sides ensures excellent traction underfoot, even in wet or oily conditions, supporting safer movement across the work area.

The platform measures approximately 238mm in overall height with 200mm clearance underneath, making it ideal for bridging over service lines. Please note that due to the 60mm lip on each side of the GRP C-channel, the usable span may be reduced by approximately 120mm, particularly when bridging items that sit flush with the ground.

Each unit is built to withstand pedestrian point loads of up to 150kg, offering reliable performance for regular industrial use.

Colours may vary depending on available stock, and bespoke colour options are not offered for this product. Delivery is typically 3–4 days.

Step over platform questions answered

What is a step over platform used for?

It gives a safe crossing point over pipework, cables, ducting and other low-level services, so people are not stepping over or onto them. It can also be used as a small podium to reach a higher work area.

How high is the platform?

It is approximately 238mm high overall with around 200mm of clearance underneath. If you need more clearance, see our step over platforms from 210mm to 300mm.

What load can it take?

Each unit is built for pedestrian point loads of up to 150kg.

Why is the usable span smaller than the stated span?

The GRP C-channel legs have a 60mm lip on each side, so if the item you are bridging sits flat on the ground the usable span is reduced by roughly 120mm. Allow for this when choosing a size.
