Horisont Stairway

Assembly

Erection of stairways on a beam

Erection is performed in the same way as described under heading “Erection 

of stairway”, with the exception of the procedure described in point 1. In-

stead, connect the crane sling just above the middle of the stairway, around 

the beam’s upper section inside the handrails.

Moving stairways and moving stairways attached to beam

Moving stairways and moving stairways attached to a beam can under normal 

conditions be performed with a crane or similar. With regard to coupling a 

lifting sling, refer to heading Erection of stairways and Erection of stairways 

on a beam.

Lowering stairways and lowering stairways attached to beam

Lowering is performed as erection in reverse, with the following additions.

• After lowering, the stairway should be collapsed completely, mainly to take 

less space when transporting and storing.

-- NOTE! ---

Release locking device before collapsing stairs

• During storage, the stairway should be collapsed and the handrail removed.

• During storage, the stairway should not lie directly on the ground as this can 

cause rusting.

• To save space, the beam sections can be collapsed before storage or trans

-

port.
