ON SITE
When we arrive at your station, we have all our ladder testing
equipment
with us.
Set-up is quick, and we start testing right away.
ON SCHEDULE
We work out a schedule with you -- one that suits your needs,
whether you are calling for a stand-alone station or an entire service
district. We show up on time, and we work efficiently so that there is no
wasted time. No apparatus need be held out of service during testing
(other than certain aerial tests). From then on, we manage
the schedule each year, contacting you so that you don't have to remember
when it's time to contact us.
ON STANDARD
We test aerial and ground ladders in compliance with NFPA 1914 and NFPA 1932 respectively. Testing is performed by our certified technicians. We issue a test record for each ladder we test. This gives you unbiased, third-party validation of your equipment's ability to meet or exceed the standard.
| Our annual aerial inspection program addresses the requirements of NFPA 1914, including but not limited to: |
• Horizontal bend and maximum elevation load tests
• Operational tests for all control mechanisms
• Turntable and torque box inspection and test
• Waterway system inspection and test
• Stabilizer inspection and test |
All tests are performed in compliance with NFPA 1914 and manufacturers'
inspection instructions.
| Our complete ground ladder test program includes: |
• Annual Testing
• Visual inspection
• Service strength testing
• Roof hook test
• Ladder hardware test
Post-Incident Evaluation
When you have ladders that show obvious damage or heat exposure, call us. We'll be there within 72 hours to evaluate one or more ladders for return to service. |
