Aluminum Access Deck With Ladder 28 Inch Wide

Engineered to international standards for safety, speed and durability on every job site.

Overview

The Aluminum Access Deck With Ladder 28 Inch Wide — also called a 28" aluminum access deck or aluminum access platform with ladder — is a wide scaffold deck with a built-in access ladder built into an aluminum frame. At about 710 mm across it gives crews a broad, stable working platform plus an integral climbing means, making it ideal for platforms that need frequent up-and-down access without rigging a separate ladder.

Key Features

  • 28" (710 mm) wide access deck with built-in ladder
  • Aluminum frame keeps the deck lighter than all-steel equivalents
  • Plywood top gives a flat, grippy working platform
  • Built-in ladder removes the need for separate access equipment
  • Hooked or drop-in ends seat on scaffold transoms and frames
  • Lengths 7 ft, 8 ft and 10 ft (ACDL6-ACDL10)
  • Compliant with EN 12810 / EN 12811, ANSI, AS/NZS 1576 and OSHA

A 28 inch aluminum access deck with ladder pairs an aluminum frame, a plywood walking surface and a built-in ladder in one unit. The wide 710 mm deck leaves room for boots, tools and materials, while the integrated ladder lets workers climb onto the platform from the inside or outside without rigging a separate access ladder. The aluminum frame keeps the weight manageable, and the plywood top gives a flat, grippy surface underfoot. The ACDL6 through ACDL10 range covers 7 ft, 8 ft and 10 ft lengths to match common bay sizes. ACE SCAFFOLD supplies these decks under ISO 9001 quality, compliant with EN 12810 / EN 12811, ANSI, AS/NZS 1576 and OSHA, with FOB Shanghai delivery.

A 28 inch (710 mm) aluminum access deck with ladder combines platform and access in one deck. The aluminum frame carries the load, the plywood top provides sure footing, and the built-in ladder removes the need for a separate access ladder on low to mid-height platforms.

Wide Deck With Built-in Ladder

The deck is about 710 mm across — wider than 12", 19" and 24" planks — and includes an integral ladder. The extra width gives crews more room to work, and the ladder is always in the right place for climbing up or down.

Aluminum Frame with Plywood Top

The extruded aluminum frame keeps the unit light and rigid, while the plywood top gives a stable, non-slip walking surface. The combination is durable enough for site use and easier to handle than all-steel equivalents.

Lengths for Common Bays

The ACDL family covers 7 ft, 8 ft and 10 ft lengths (ACDL6, ACDL8, ACDL10), matching common bay sizes used on frame and modular systems.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q
What is an aluminium access deck with ladder?
It is a wide scaffold deck made from an aluminum frame with a plywood top and a built-in ladder. The ladder is integrated into the deck, so workers can climb onto the platform without a separate access ladder.
Q
What does 28 inch width mean for this access deck?
"28 inch" is the nominal width of the deck top surface, about 710 mm. This extra-wide platform gives crews more room for boots, tools and materials than standard 12", 19" or 24" boards.
Q
What material is the access deck made of?
The deck has an extruded aluminum frame with end hooks or locating lugs and a plywood top. The aluminum frame resists corrosion and carries the load; the plywood provides the walking surface.
Q
What lengths are available?
The ACDL6, ACDL8 and ACDL10 models cover 7 ft (2.13 m), 8 ft (2.44 m) and 10 ft (3.05 m) lengths, matching common scaffold bay sizes.
Q
How much does the access deck weigh?
The aluminum frame keeps weights manageable: 27.5 kgs for the 7 ft ACDL6, 29.2 kgs for the 8 ft ACDL8, and 34.4 kgs for the 10 ft ACDL10.
Q
Why choose an access deck with a built-in ladder?
A built-in ladder removes the need to rig, move and secure a separate ladder for platform access. The ladder is always in the correct position, saving setup time and reducing trip hazards around the bay.
Q
What are the benefits over a plain wooden plank?
The aluminum frame gives a rigid, uniform support structure that carries higher loads and resists warping, splitting and moisture better than a solid timber plank of similar size. The integrated ladder also adds access convenience.
Q
Will the aluminum frame rust?
No. Aluminum naturally forms a protective oxide layer, so the frame resists corrosion without paint or coating. This makes the deck suitable for coastal, wet and indoor fit-out work where steel frames would rust.
Q
How does the deck attach to the scaffold?
The aluminum frame has hooked or drop-in ends that seat directly onto scaffold transoms or frame members. The hooks prevent lift-off and sideways slip, and the drop-in installation means no extra clamps or fixings are needed.
Q
Is the plywood top replaceable?
Yes. The plywood top is fixed to the aluminum frame and can be replaced when worn or damaged, keeping the aluminum frame in service and lowering long-term cost.
Q
Can the deck be used on frame and modular systems?
Yes. The hooked or drop-in ends fit common frame and modular scaffold transoms, and the 7 ft, 8 ft and 10 ft lengths match standard bay sizes.
Q
What standards do these access decks meet?
ACE SCAFFOLD manufactures these decks under ISO 9001 quality management, compliant with EN 12810 / EN 12811, ANSI, AS/NZS 1576 and OSHA requirements, with FOB Shanghai delivery and OEM/ODM support.
