The StairSpan stairwell protection system stops falls into stairwells, voids, and down stairways and serves as a stable working platform when working at heights.

This StairSpan system is user-friendly and can be set up in just a few minutes, without obstructing access between floors which enables work to continue around it.

Are you are looking for ways to comply with the The Future Homes Standard on your timber frame house build projects by reducing carbon emissions?

Take a look at the Oxford Safety Components range of access solutions for working at height, particularly the StairSpan Bridge.

Developed in partnership with a leading housebuilder the system was designed to reduce waste and carbon emission on site!

The results exceeded our expectation with impressive 174,42kg of CO₂e reduction based on 812 systems after one use per system!

And because our systems are reusable, the carbon savings continue to increase every time the system is used.

At Oxford Safety Components our primary goal is to keep people safe when working at height. But we want to shout about World Mental Health Day on Saturday 10th October and the importance of raising awareness and talking about mental health.

Life gets busy, we worry what people will think, so we keep our problems to ourselves.

Don't be afraid to talk - Pick up the phone.
Lets make the time to listen - Meet for a coffee.

No one should struggle in silence or feel alone with their thoughts.

Are you looking for ways to ensure your team stays safe while boosting productivity during the various stages of a traditional or timber frame house build?

Our secure working platforms enhance safety when working at heights, stopping falls from roofs, through ceilings, and down stairways.

They also provide easy access between floors, allowing construction workers and related trades to operate together on-site.

This helps cut down on build times, waste, and CO2 emissions, supporting the push for more sustainable solutions for home builders.

The great thing about the StairSpan Safe Access System is that it can be adapted to many different stair configurations.

So you can use it on a top winder in one property then move it to a full winder in a different property with just a few simple adjustments.

The frame can be lengthened and shortened, the legs can be independently altered to different heights, then the mat expands to fit ensuring a stable work platform and complete fall protection in stairwells, but still allows full visibility and access between floors.
