FAQs

LADDER INSPECTION & TESTING FAQs

Find answers to common questions about our fire apparatus, customization options, and after-sales support—all in one place.

How often does my fleet need NFPA ladder testing?

Ladder testing is typically completed once a year, based on applicable NFPA guidance and your department’s equipment needs.

What is the difference between a visual check and NDT testing?

A visual check looks for visible damage. NDT testing helps identify hidden cracks or structural concerns that may not be visible from the outside.

Can you perform an aerial ladder inspection at our station?

Yes. In many cases, ladder inspections can be completed at your department to help reduce downtime.

Does your testing cover both ground and aerial ladders?

Yes. Testing can include both ground ladders and aerial ladders, depending on your department’s requirements.

What happens if a ladder fails the inspection?

If an issue is found, we provide a report and review the recommended next steps with your team.

How long does a standard fire truck ladder certification inspection take?

A standard inspection may take a few hours. More detailed testing, including load or hydraulic checks, may take longer.

Do we receive official paperwork for our records?

Yes. You receive documentation outlining the inspection results and any recommendations for your records.

Why is "heat sensor" testing part of the ladder inspection?

Heat sensors help show whether a ladder may have been exposed to conditions that could affect its strength. Checking them is part of confirming the ladder’s condition.
