Safety cage ladders are designed to get to buildings, plants, machineries and wherever there
is the necessity to safely reach a fixed structure. FACAL safety cage ladder is studied as a kit to fit all possible use situations that one can afford. The system complies with the European norm
FEATURES
Cage ladder includes 2 main elements: ladders and cages. There are then all the fastening
elements.
Ladder: it’s in aluminium manufactured with 25 X 65 stiles, anti-slip aluminium 30x30 square
rungs. Ladders are pre-pierced to hold nylon joints at the end parts. External width 450 mm-
internal clear width 400 mm. Distance between rungs: 300 mm. Standard dimensions: 1195
mm, 1795 mm, 2095 mm, 2395 mm, 2995 mm, 3295 mm. Ladders are produced in compliance
with the European norm 131-1/2.
Safety cage: it’s made up by aluminium clamps with double ribs and vertical aluminium
sections disposed at regular intervals. The assembly of clamps with vertical sections is
done in the way that the empty surface doesn’t exceed 0.4 square meters. (ref. EN 14122-4).
The maximum distance between two consecutive clamps shouldn’t exceed 1500 mm ( ref.
EN 14122-4). Fastening on the stiles is done through brackets and 10x45 zinc-plated screws
(included).
Fastening brackets: standard fastening brackets have a length of 228 mm and keep the
ladder at a distance of 180 mm.
If the fastening surface is irregular, you should use adjustable wall brackets with a maximum
extension of 153 mm. You have to consider a maximum distance of 2 m between brackets.
Cages wall fastening and hooking systems on ladders are designed to resist to horizontal and
vertical force test expected from the European norm.
