Like our docks, these gangways are built to order, and can be configured to meet a range of requirements. Each ramp is fully engineered for safety and durability, and a range of mounting and transition options are available to meet the unique demands of each site.
Kropf can also design ramps to meet barrier-free accessibility requirements. Details vary by jurisdiction, but since each ramp is built to order, customizing to meet your unique compliance requirements is easily accomplished.
Gangways
Kropf Marine manufactures and installs quality aluminum gangways, bridges, and ramps as access to floating dock systems or other structures. These gangways are typically supplied with a wood or aluminum deck surface, and are availaible with or without handrails.
When used as access to a floating dock system, these gangways are designed with nylon rollers which rest on the dock, allowing for limited independent movement between the ramp and the floating dock.
For locations where the gangway needs to be removed seasonally for winterizing, the deck can be constructed with removable panels to facilitate winterizing without heavy lifting equipment.
Kropf is C.W.B certified for aluminum welding to ensure proper procedures are used in the fabrication of these bridge and gangway structures.
Security Gates
Security is important, both to the marina operator and to the boaters themselves. In many situations limiting access to the docks is essential to providing a secure marina environment where boaters can relax knowing that their valuable investments are protected.
