Three Counties Showground
REQUIREMENT::
The showground had a split-level floor between exhibition halls, meaning visitors were required to use a single ramp to move between areas.
This created a restriction in pedestrian flow, with several exhibition stands positioned away from the main visitor route and potentially receiving reduced footfall.
To improve accessibility and visitor movement, the event team required an additional access point. The challenge was finding a safe, compliant step solution that could be supplied and installed only days before the event.
THE SOLUTON:
Rapid Ramp supplied the SiteStep System, which was delivered directly to site and assembled within minutes using non-specialist labour.
The modular design provided an immediate “out of the box” solution, creating additional access between the floor levels without the delays or complexity of a traditional temporary structure.
WHY SITESTEP?
Slip-Tested Access
- SiteStep provides a tested walking surface with verified PTV slip resistance.
- Unlike many temporary step solutions, slip performance is independently verified.
Structurally Verified Solution
- The system provides a professionally designed access solution.
- The Safety Manager highlighted that even temporary event structures require confidence that the step system is suitable and structurally supported.
Rapid Installation
- Assembled within minutes.
- No specialist installation team or complex construction required.
Complete Temporary Access Package
- Delivered quickly as a ready-to-use access solution.
- Suitable for managing large height differences safely without building a bespoke temporary structure.
HAVE A SIMILAR REQUIREMENT?
Estimates can be returned within 24hrs if there is clear information given, including project address, drawings, photos and contact details.
The steps were quick and easy to assemble. Our Safety Manager commented that they provided a much safer alternative to the timber steps typically used for event requirements. This is a tried and tested solution that I would recommend as a cost and time efficient option for other events.
