560 Roof Hatch Access
Every roof hatch needs a way down to the deck, but not every building needs a specialized fit. For straightforward hatch openings without unusual mounting constraints, a standard fixed ladder is often the more practical, more economical answer.
That’s what the 560 is built for.
It’s Alaco’s base roof hatch access ladder: a permanent climb installed directly beneath the hatch opening, sized to your roof without the extra fabrication a tighter or offset hatch condition would require.
It’s a common retrofit for buildings replacing worn wooden or improvised ladders under existing hatches, and a standard spec for new construction where the hatch opening and roof deck are straightforward to work with.
