Spiral, helicoidal stairs and platforms for chimneys

Steel stairs for industrial chimneys are robust structures that provide access to different levels of a chimney. Thanks to modern solutions and the expertise of our engineers, TLC steel chimney stairs ensure safety during use. They are made from the highest quality materials and undergo appropriate corrosion protection. As an international manufacturer, we guarantee professional advice and compliance with the industrial standards of each country.

Usage

Industrial chimneys are designed for the discharge of exhaust gases, smoke, and production gases. They are used in almost all sectors of the processing industry, including:

  • The mining industry
  • The processing industry
  • The fuel and energy sector
  • The metallurgical industry
  • The food industry
  • The agricultural sector

Thanks to the possibility of designing stairs according to customer specifications, TLC steel stairs can be easily adapted to any type of steel chimney. Communication on free-standing industrial chimneys is crucial for their functionality.

Types of chimney stairs

Spiral stairs for chimneys – these stairs have a curved design and are often referred to as fan stairs. They serve as an access route around industrial chimneys and are designed to provide free access at various heights. The spiral staircase allows for the inspection and maintenance of the chimney.

Thanks to the possibility of designing stairs according to customer specifications, we offer different types of stairs for steel chimneys:

  • Chimney stairs for waste incineration plants
  • Chimney stairs for industrial chimneys
  • Chimney stairs for thermal power plant chimneys
  • Chimney stairs for power plant chimneys
  • Chimney stairs for petrochemical installations
  • Chimney stairs for the food and confectionery industry (lime kilns)
  • Chimney stairs for paper mills
  • Chimney stairs for coal mines
  • Chimney stairs for iron and non-ferrous metal plants

Platforms and technical ladders for chimneys

Chimney platforms – these platforms are designed to provide safe and stable working areas at various heights around industrial chimneys. They serve as essential access points for inspection, maintenance, and repair tasks, ensuring safety and functionality. Chimney platforms are typically installed at key points along the chimney’s height, offering reliable support for workers and equipment.

Thanks to the ability to customize designs according to customer specifications, we offer different types of platforms for steel chimneys.

Technical ladders for chimneys – steel structures equipped with a safety cage and permanently attached to the building. For added safety, these ladders feature non-slip steps according to TLC standards.

FAQ

Stairs and access platforms for chimneys provide safe access to different levels of the chimney for inspections, maintenance and repair work. Working platforms create stable working areas at selected heights of the structure. Depending on the height and operating conditions, the lower sections of the structure may be made of carbon steel, while the upper zones, which are more exposed to weather conditions and aggressive environments, may be made of stainless steel to ensure higher corrosion resistance and longer service life.

Yes. The structures are designed in accordance with the client’s specification and can be adapted to the chimney type, its geometry and the technical requirements of the facility.

Yes. Stairs and platforms for chimneys are made of high-quality materials and protected with appropriate corrosion protection systems, which allows them to be used in demanding industrial environments. The standard protection is hot-dip galvanizing in accordance with EN ISO 1461, ensuring durable protection of steel components against corrosion. We also meet DASt 022 requirements where required. TLC also uses stainless steel and aluminium. After production, stainless steel is pickled across the full project scope to improve the quality of the final product delivered to the client.

Yes. TLC declares compliance with the industrial requirements applicable in the country of use. The structures are designed for safe operation at height.

TLC offers spiral stairs for chimneys, helicoidal stairs, working platforms and technical ladders for chimneys. These solutions provide access to different levels of the structure and can be adapted to the specific nature of the installation.
