Alternating Tread Stairs

Precision’s Aluminum Alternating Tread Stair is an alternative to a traditional ships stair.  These stairs allow the user to descend face-forward giving a clear view of the floor below.  Precision Ladders’ aluminum Alternating Tread Stairs were designed with tubular siderails to provide
