Steel Stairs and Fire Escapes Northern Ireland

Every commercial building needs safe and reliable access. Therefore, we design and manufacture steel stairs and fire escapes for businesses across Northern Ireland. Whether you need an emergency exit for an office or access stairs for a factory or warehouse, we can deliver a solution. Because we build everything in house, we can fit any layout and requirement.

Industrial Access Stairs

Name: BMC Engineering Solutions NI Ltd
Price range: $$$

Factories, warehouses, and commercial units often need safe access to mezzanines, plant rooms, or service areas.

For this reason, we build heavy duty industrial stairs designed for constant use. Unlike light internal stairs, these systems are built for strength and durability.

We also use non slip tread options such as Durbar checker plate or open mesh flooring. As a result, you improve grip and reduce the risk of slips and trips in the workplace.

Durable Finishes for Outdoor Use

Most fire escapes are installed externally, so protection against weather is essential. We recommend hot dip galvanising for all steel stairs and fire escapes, as it coats the steel in zinc to prevent rust and corrosion.

In addition, a powder coated finish can be applied to match your building, providing both durability and a consistent appearance.

Safety, Compliance and Practical Design

Safety and compliance are central to every commercial staircase we build. Each system is designed for public use, workplace safety, and high traffic environments.

As a CE certified manufacturer, we follow strict processes to ensure quality and safe installation.

We consider:

Load bearing requirements and structural performance
Safe step geometry, spacing, and anti slip considerations
Secure handrails and fully compliant balustrade systems
Robust fixing methods suitable for commercial and industrial use

In addition, we assess how each staircase will perform under real operating conditions. This includes offices, retail units, industrial facilities, and public access buildings where durability and safety are critical.

As a result, you receive a staircase system that is compliant, fit for purpose, and designed to perform reliably in demanding commercial environments over the long term.
