Custom Capabilities
Custom Designed Cage Ladder – Made to Print
We manufacture to your drawing or to your spec sheet — same engineered outcome either way.
Made to Print
Send your PDF or DWG and we fabricate exactly to the drawing — rungs, hoops, straps, platform and entrance flaring.
Built to Your Specs

Design Changes, Priced Honestly
Change Cost Table: What a Design Change Costs at Each Stage
Every custom design survives contact with the site — a re-survey moves a platform, an owner adds an exit. The same change costs nothing or thousands depending only on when it lands. Here is the table we wish every buyer saw before the first drawing.
| Stage | Change You Bring | Cost to You |
|---|---|---|
| Concept sketch / first CAD | any parameter — rise, width, cage size, exits, material, standard | Free — unlimited iterations on the CAD, engineer review in 1–3 days |
| Redline review (pre-quote) | standards clashes, anchor patterns, hoop positions | Free — redlines are the point of the review, not an extra |
| Approval drawing issued | dimension corrections, exit direction, platform heights | Free — the drawing loops until you sign it; nothing is cut before release |
| Production released, before cutting | quantity, finish, packaging, freight terms | Free — requote in 24 hours on the same geometry |
| Steel cut, jig welding underway | changes to uncut accessories: hoops, gates, brackets | Material difference only — no penalty fee on affected parts |
| Welded, pre-galvanizing | add-on weldments only — geometry is locked | Difference plus a bench hour; last cheap structural window |
| After ISO 1461 galvanizing | none structurally — rework means strip and re-dip | Full rework of affected parts; we say honestly if a new unit is cheaper |
Design freedom is free while it lives on paper. The approval-drawing gate exists precisely so your changes happen on the free side of this table.
Who Should Hold the Pen?
Design It Yourself, or Design It With the Factory?
A custom-designed ladder can be drawn by your consultant, by the factory that will weld it, or cobbled from a platform's configurator. The choice decides how many revision cycles you pay for — in weeks, if not in money.
Red flags — the design process will burn weeks
- Quotes before review — a price on an unreviewed drawing is a guess wearing a number
- No approval gate — production starts from an email, and disputes have no reference document
- Revision fees on paper changes — CAD iterations are the cheapest engineering there is; charging for them signals the pricing to come
- "Design fee waived with order" — the fee existed only to pressure the order
Green lights — the design process works for you
- Engineers redline your drawing free — fabrication and standards issues found before steel, in 1–3 days
- Five inputs are enough to start — rise, clear space, load, material, destination; a DWG just speeds it up
- Sign-off gates production — the approved drawing is the contract the floor builds to
- Calcs run on your geometry — engineer-signed structural sheets match the as-built, not a template
The Five-Step Custom Path: Free CAD to Confirmed Production
Custom design work follows one path whether you arrive with a full DWG or three numbers from a site walk — and only one step should ever feel slow: the sign-off, because that is where risk is removed before steel is cut.
Input. Send a PDF or DWG, or the four numbers that matter: vertical rise, clear space, load requirement, material.
Free CAD review. Engineers redline fabrication issues and standards clashes before you commit a dollar.
Approval. The corrected drawing returns for your sign-off — Φ20 mm rungs at 280 mm pitch, 500 mm clear width, Φ700 mm cage starting at 2.2 m, exits and anchors. Nothing enters production unconfirmed.
Production. 15–25 working days through five QC stages: MTC 3.1 verification, ISO 5817 C welding, ISO 1461 galvanizing at 85–100 μm, trial assembly, archived photography.
Dispatch. Single pieces up to 14 m, export packing quoted per crate; walk-through exit kits $90–250, sea freight $280–550 per 6 m ladder, DoC and structural calcs in the crate.
The gate that protects you is step three — a drawing you have seen and approved is the contract the shop floor builds to.
Custom Design Value at a Glance
What a Factory-Designed Ladder Buys Your Project
Five features of designing with the factory that will weld it, and the outcome each lands on.
| Feature | Advantage | Your Outcome |
|---|---|---|
| Free redline review, 1–3 days | designer and welder are the same team | fabrication issues die on paper, not on site |
| Approval drawing gates cutting | one signed document controls the build | no disputes about what "correct" means |
| Unlimited CAD iterations | paper changes cost nothing | design converges without invoice anxiety |
| Calcs on your geometry | engineer-signed sheets match the as-built | reviewers approve on documents, first pass |
| Locked production dates | 15–25 working days after release | site crews scheduled against real dates |
