Height Adjustable Access Platform with Extendable Overhang: Safe Access Where You Need It Most
Working safely at height is one of the biggest challenges across mining, manufacturing and heavy industrial sites. Whether technicians are carrying out routine inspections, equipment servicing or shutdown maintenance, having safe, stable access is essential.
Ricbuilt Heavy Industries has developed a Height Adjustable Access Platform with an Extendable Overhang to provide operators with greater flexibility, improved safety and easier access to difficult working areas.
Designed for Real Industrial Applications
Many maintenance tasks require workers to reach over machinery, conveyors, tanks or fixed equipment. Traditional platforms often require multiple setups or awkward positioning, increasing downtime and creating unnecessary safety risks.
Ricbuilt's adjustable platform is specifically designed to overcome these challenges.
With a working height adjustable from 4.1 metres to 5.8 metres, operators can quickly position themselves at the correct height using a manual hydraulic pump system, eliminating the need for external power while keeping operation simple and reliable.
Extend Further Without Compromising Safety
One of the platform's standout features is its extendable overhang, which adjusts from 1.7 metres to 3.1 metres.
This allows maintenance personnel to safely work over equipment or obstacles without needing to reposition the entire platform, improving efficiency while maintaining a stable working environment.
Whether servicing plant equipment, conducting inspections or performing preventative maintenance, the extended reach helps reduce unnecessary movement and saves valuable time.
Built to Handle Harsh Australian Conditions
Like every Ricbuilt product, this platform is engineered with durability in mind.
Constructed from heavy-duty materials, it is designed to withstand the demanding environments found in mining, industrial processing facilities, workshops and manufacturing plants.
Key features include:
Adjustable working height from 4.1m to 5.8m
Extendable overhang from 1.7m to 3.1m
Manual pump hydraulic lift system
Heavy-duty, low-maintenance construction
Full safety handrails
Non-slip decking for improved operator safety
Locking castors and forklift pockets for easy transportation around site
Designed to comply with relevant Australian safety standards
Improving Safety and Productivity
The right access equipment doesn't just improve safety—it also improves productivity.
By providing secure access to elevated work areas and reducing the need for temporary solutions or repeated repositioning, operators can complete maintenance tasks more efficiently while reducing the risks associated with working at height.
This makes the platform an ideal solution for:
Mining operations
Processing plants
Manufacturing facilities
Workshops
Shutdown maintenance
Equipment inspections
Preventative maintenance programs
