Cat Ladder
Fixed Roof Access in Malaysia
A cat ladder, also known as a monkey ladder, is a fixed vertical ladder designed to provide safe and permanent access to rooftops, maintenance platforms, tanks, and elevated service areas. Permanently installed onto a structure, it offers a stable and space-saving solution for buildings that require frequent and controlled access to height.
This fixed roof access ladder is typically made from aluminium for its strength, corrosion resistance, and suitability for indoor and outdoor use. For higher access points, a safety cage can be added to improve fall protection, making the ladder suitable for industrial and commercial environments where work-at-height safety is a priority. At Step by Step, we manufacture industrial-grade aluminium cat ladders in Malaysia, designed for durability and long-term professional use.

Aluminium Cat Ladder vs Portable Ladder
Compared to portable ladders or temporary access equipment, a fixed aluminium cat ladder is safer and more reliable for buildings that need regular access to rooftops or high areas. Because it is permanently installed, it reduces the risk of slipping, wrong placement, or unstable surfaces, and is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.
- Permanent installation for safe and consistent access
- Space-saving vertical design for limited areas
- More stable than portable ladders
