The Climb-It® range from GPC Industries covers the full spread of industrial access equipment — from mobile safety steps to aluminium work towers — all UK-manufactured and built for daily warehouse and factory use rather than occasional DIY.
What's in the Climb-It range
Mobile safety steps — certified to EN 131 Professional, from compact warehouse essentials steps up to 15-tread warehouse steps with a handlock mechanism that engages or disengages the front castors, so the steps are mobile when you push them and static when you climb. Weight-reactive versions ground themselves automatically on spring-loaded castors as soon as body weight is applied, and safety-lock models raise and lower all four wheels with one action.
Platform steps — large platform folding steps and folding telescopic steps with 510 x 560mm non-slip aluminium platforms, kick boards and spring-gated enclosures; extra-large platform versions add extendable, adjustable stabilisers for difficult working conditions.
Work platforms — tubular steel single and twin inline platforms with 800 x 800mm chequer-plate decks and adjustable feet for uneven floors, plus Easy Slope work platforms for longer jobs at a fixed height.
Aluminium towers — Flexi, Extenda, Ultra and UniPro towers with 1550 x 600mm platforms, tool-free assembly and heights up to 8.1m; Extenda towers are certified to BS EN 1004.
Choosing from the range
Match the equipment to the working height and frequency: steps for picking and short tasks, platforms for repeated work at one height, towers for maintenance and installation work. All work-at-height equipment should be inspected regularly under PUWER and the Work at Height Regulations 2005.

Frequently asked questions
What is the Climb-It range?
Climb-It® is GPC Industries' UK-manufactured range of industrial access equipment — mobile safety steps, platform steps, work platforms and aluminium towers — built for daily warehouse and factory use rather than occasional DIY.
What products are included in the Climb-It range?
Mobile safety steps (including weight-reactive and safety-lock versions), large platform folding steps and folding telescopic steps, tubular steel work platforms with chequer-plate decks, Easy Slope work platforms, and Flexi, Extenda, Ultra and UniPro aluminium towers.
How tall are Climb-It aluminium towers?
The Flexi, Extenda, Ultra and UniPro towers reach platform heights up to 8.1m, with 1550 x 600mm platforms and tool-free assembly.
Are Climb-It towers certified to a recognised standard?
The Climb-It Extenda towers are certified to BS EN 1004, the European standard for mobile access and working towers.
What is a weight-reactive safety step?
A weight-reactive safety step grounds itself automatically on spring-loaded castors as soon as body weight is applied, so the unit cannot be pushed or rolled while someone is standing on it. Safety-lock versions instead raise or lower all four wheels with one action.
What is the difference between Climb-It mobile safety steps and platform steps?
Mobile safety steps are certified to EN 131 Professional and designed for picking and short tasks, with a handlock mechanism that engages or disengages the front castors. Platform steps — large platform folding and folding telescopic versions — add a bigger non-slip aluminium platform, kick boards and spring-gated enclosures for longer jobs at one height.
How do I choose between steps, a work platform and a tower?
Match the equipment to the task: steps for picking and short tasks, platforms for repeated work at one height, and towers for maintenance and installation work that needs a larger, more stable working area.
Do Climb-It products need regular inspection?
Yes. As work equipment used at height, Climb-It steps, platforms and towers fall under both PUWER and the Work at Height Regulations 2005, which require equipment to be maintained and inspected at suitable intervals — see our PUWER and Work at Height Regulations guides for what that inspection should cover.
Our ladder and steps inspection checklist explains the pre-use and formal checks for access steps and towers.
