Stock Picking Ladders

Stock picking ladders are rolling ladders and work platforms used for order picking, inventory access, and light warehouse tasks. Buyers choose by step count or platform height, tread type (serrated grip strut, perforated, expanded metal, abrasive mat), whether a CAL-OSHA model is required, and whether to ship knocked-down or with factory setup.

How to choose a stock picking ladder

Start with the step count or platform height that matches your rack levels and pick frequency. These ladders are steel, gray, and built to OSHA 1910.23 / ANSI-ASC A14.7; CAL-OSHA models add California Title 8 requirements.

Step counts and slopes

  • Available step counts: 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12.
  • Many models use a 56° slope where noted on product pages.

Tread type guidance

  • Perforated: general-purpose walking surface.
  • Serrated (Grip Strut): designed for wet or oily floors.
  • Expanded metal: lets debris fall through to keep the tread clear.
  • Abrasive mat: suited for quieter operation and cleaner-room style environments.
  • Ribbed: available on stainless or aluminum variants where specified.

CAL-OSHA and compliance

Choose a CAL-OSHA model when required for California and Canada job sites; 20 of the product pages offer a CAL-OSHA configuration selectable in the model chooser.

Knocked-down vs factory setup and shipping

Twenty of the product pages offer a factory setup (fully assembled) option; models without that option ship knocked-down for on-site assembly. All units ship factory-direct LTL freight from Coatesville, PA to commercial addresses. Lead times vary by model—check the product page or ask a specialist.
