Who It’s For

  • Maintenance & Facilities teams needing fast, compliant access without a civil crew
  • EPCs and project managers speccing landings for modular ErectaStep stairs and towers
  • Rooftop and remote-site installs where digging isn’t practical or permitted
  • Safety leaders upgrading temporary or non-compliant stair setups to OSHA standards

Why Choose the ErectaStep Form Kit

  • Faster than site-built forms. No lumber, no custom carpentry, no rework.
  • Lower total cost. Skip excavation, dig permits, and shop-fabricated pads.
  • Rooftop-ready. Non-penetrating design protects membranes and warranties.
  • Engineered to match. Purpose-built for ErectaStep’s modular stair system — no shimming, no adapters.
  • Backed by a RAM. Your Regional Area Manager helps you spec the right kit, quantity, and configuration for the job.

How It Works (3 steps)

  • Unbox and assemble the form kit on your prepared surface — in under 10 minutes with 3 hand tools: an impact driver, a rubber mallet, and pliers.
  • Pour concrete into the form using the included anchor bolt layout.
  • Bolt on your ErectaStep stair or tower once the pad cures. Landing height is pre-matched to the 9″ tread rise.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the ErectaStep Concrete Form Kit?

It’s a prefabricated, bolt-together form for pouring stair landing pads and tower foundations. Each kit ships flat with everything needed — including anchor bolts — so a crew can assemble the form, pour concrete, and be ready for stair installation the same day.

How long does it take to assemble?

Under 10 minutes with basic hand tools. The kit unboxes ready to place, level, and pour.

Do I need a permit or excavation?

No digging is required. Because the kit is surface-mounted and non-penetrating, most sites avoid dig permits entirely. Always confirm requirements with your local Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ).

Can I install the concrete form kits on a rooftop?

Yes. The zero-penetration design is rooftop-safe. Pair it with the optional rooftop tray (sold separately) to protect the roof membrane and warranty.

Is the Concrete Form Kit OSHA-compliant?

Yes. When installed per instructions, the pad meets OSHA structural stability requirements for stair landings. It’s engineered to support a 50 psf live load, 20 psf snow load, and wind up to 115 mph.

What stair heights and configurations does it support?

The finish height matches ErectaStep’s standard 9″ tread rise, and the kit is stable up to a 6-step ErectaStep configuration. For taller towers or custom builds, your Regional Area Manager (RAM) can confirm the right foundation solution.

How long before I can install the stairs after pouring?

Follow your concrete mix’s cure specification — typically 24–72 hours for foot traffic and 7 days for full design load. Your ready-mix supplier can confirm exact cure times for your climate and mix.

How fast can I get it? Is it in stock?

Yes. The Concrete Form Kit is manufactured in the United States, flat-packed, and stocked for immediate shipment. Most orders ship within 1–2 business days.

We'll definitely use SafeRack on the next skid. Greg Crawford was responsive. Always got him on the first call. Always got back to me when he said he would. I recommend this product. It is by far the best quality product we've used in all of the grounding units we've used on all our truck-loading skids. Nothing but positive feedback. We're extremely pleased and we'll definitely use SafeRack on the next skid.

I would recommend this product. Phyllis Sikes was right on. I would recommend this product because it prevents overfilling rail cars. The product was delivered within 3 weeks as stated on the order acknowledgement. We were able to resume loading railcars at our facility.

SafeRack was probably the most willing and happy to help with any issues or questions I had. Fixing some ergonomic issues within our pipeline station, accessing certain valves and a few piping crossovers. The product has not been delivered yet but I assume it will arrive very soon.
