Chereau trailer access ladders and steps
Truckstop Group is the sole UK distributor for Chereau trailer parts, supplying access ladders, steps and associated mounting hardware for Chereau refrigerated trailers across the UK cold chain sector. Access ladders on refrigerated trailers allow drivers, loaders and inspection staff to access the trailer roof, refrigeration unit and load area safely. Ladder condition is a maintenance and compliance consideration; damaged or missing rungs, loose fixings or corroded mounting brackets should be addressed promptly.
Chereau rear access ladders are typically fixed to the door frame or trailer rear structure and fold or telescope to reduce their profile when not in use. Side steps and step brackets are fitted to the trailer side chassis to assist with trailer coupling checks, curtain access and inspection. Replacement ladders, individual rungs, step brackets and fixing hardware are available as separate parts, allowing repair rather than full ladder replacement where only specific components are damaged.
Call our team with your Chereau trailer serial number to confirm the correct ladder or step reference for your build. UK nationwide delivery or same-day collection from our branches.
Frequently asked questions
Are Chereau trailer ladders a legal requirement?
Access to the trailer roof for refrigeration unit maintenance and roof inspection is a practical and safety requirement, and Chereau trailers are designed with roof access provision as standard. The condition of access ladders is inspected at annual test and PMI. Damaged or unsafe ladders should be repaired or replaced to maintain safe working at height compliance.
Can individual ladder rungs be replaced on a Chereau trailer?
Yes. Chereau access ladders are designed to be serviceable and replacement rungs, fixing brackets and hardware are available as individual parts. Call our team with the trailer serial number and details of the damage and we can confirm which replacement parts are needed.
