What Are You Setting Up?
Before you begin
Check the Fit Before You Set Up
Measure Rise and Run
Record the vertical reach and available horizontal space. Use both to check the stair model and allowable installation angle.
Identify Both Supports
Note what the stair will bear on at the top and bottom. Check the model-specific guide for suitable supports and fixing requirements.
Plan Handling and Setup
Confirm the personnel, lifting equipment, tools, hardware, PPE, and site controls needed before moving the stair into position.
01 / Standard setup
Single-Stair Installation
Watch the setup overview for stair positioning, handrails, and anchoring at both ends. Follow the instructions for your model and confirm the final setup before opening the stair for use.

Installing on a Compacted-Gravel Base
If the lower end will sit on compacted gravel, check the manufacturer’s instructions for that arrangement. Confirm the ground condition and lower fixing method before setup. Do not assume the same method applies to soft soil, loose fill, or a different stair configuration.
The upper support is a separate decision. Do not rest the top of the stair directly on an earth or gravel edge. Confirm the rigid upper support and fixing requirements at both ends in the applicable guide.

H-Brace Installation
The H-Brace adds support beneath compatible AdjustaStairs models. Confirm the brace size, stair compatibility, and working load of the completed configuration before installation.

Joined Stairs & Intermediate Landings
If a single run won’t reach the access point or fit the available footprint, confirm the complete configuration before ordering. Joined runs may require specific connections, supports, or intermediate landings. Do not improvise connections or modify the equipment.

Inspect, Maintain, Move, or Return
Pre-use inspection
Use the manufacturer’s full pre-use checklist. Review the upper and lower fixings, supporting surfaces, handrails, hardware, and treads. Check for damage, missing components, and debris.
Do not use an unsafe stair. Restrict access, report the issue to the responsible supervisor, and keep the stair out of service until cleared for use.
Routine maintenance
Follow the competent-person inspection schedule and maintenance instructions for your model. Check the guide for wear, damage, and tread pivot hardware requirements.
Open Maintenance Instructions (PDF) →Dismantling, moving, and reinstalling
Plan how you’ll close the access route, support the stair, and move it before work begins. Follow the manufacturer’s dismantling instructions for your model. At the new location, complete the required setup and inspection before returning the stair to service.
View SafeSmart’s Dismantling Resources →Rental return or storage
Account for the stair, hardware, and accessories. Report damage or missing items, and secure the equipment for storage or transport as instructed. For rentals, contact TPR to coordinate the return or pickup.
