Building Maintenance Units (BMU) - Facade access systems
Aluminum structures engineered to the highest standards: stairs, ladders, access gantries, platforms, carts and cages. For horizontal, vertical, sloped, round or curved surfaces. The preferred solution for an easy and safe access.
Composition
Our permanent access systems are composed of working structures that move over a series of fixed rails, which are attached to the building.
From the working structure one can safely access the façade for cleaning or maintenance purposes. The working structure is designed to meet your specific requirements. It can take many different forms, such as a vertical ladder with or without movable platform, a reinforced ladder (vertical, horizontal or sloped), a staircase, a solid gantry, a gantry that in turn has moveable parts, etc.
The rails carry and guide the working structure. The connection between the rails and the moving parts is made by bogies. In most designs, the movement of the working structure is powered by human force only. JOMY offers two types of rail structures: round and I-shaped. The round rail is used as a "floor" for the structure (the moving part rests on the rail). The "I" rail is used as a "ceiling" for the structure (the moving part hangs from the rail).
From concept to operations
Based on the desired principles of operation we typically propose one or more designs, using our experience to ensure the designs are practically feasible and provide the desired ease of use.
Platforms
We also produce custom working platforms and industrial walkway platforms to be integrated in third party Building Maintenance Units.
Vertical mobile hanging ladders
The mobile ladder is supported by a rail system: a round-shaped rail at the bottom on which the ladder sits, and an I-shaped rail on top from which the ladder hangs. The unit moves over these rails by means of a trolley system.
Common options we provide, amongst others: horizontal access platforms, different kinds of movement systems, retractable footrests, RAL color powder coating, etc…
Available models in this series:
V100 - Vertical hanging ladder equipped with a lifeline
V200 - Vertical hanging ladder with a safety cage
V300 - Vertical hanging ladder with workplatform (also called "Washlift")
V400 - Vertical hanging ladder with reinforced structure
Horizontal mobile gantries
JOMY aluminum gantries can either be hanged from I-shaped rails, sit on round-shaped rails, or a combination of the two for a complete support structure.
Movement can be provided by different systems depending on the distance to be crossed, with a preference for manual for its increased reliability over time.
Available models in this series:
H100 - Horizontal mobile gantry with or without reinforcement constructions
H200 - Facade access gantry with mobile working cage
H300 - Mobile walkway gantry with suspended cradle
H400 - Mobile gantry with horizontal telescopic extension
Mobile hanging stairs for access to curved and sloped facades
JOMY aluminum gantries can either be hanged from I-shaped rails, sit on round-shaped rails, or a combination of the two for a complete support structure.
Movement can be provided by different systems depending on the distance to be crossed, with a preference for manual for its increased reliability over time.
Available models in this series:
AC100 - Sloped hanging stairs or stepladder with linear mobility, with or without a reinforced chassis depending on total length
AC200 - Curved hanging stairs with linear mobility, with or without a reinforced chassis depending on total length
AC300 - Combination of AC100 and AC200, with circular mobility, with or without a reinforced chassis depending on total length
