JOMY Emergency Folding Ladder
Good Looking and Unobtrusive
The ladder is very small : folded back, all
that can be seen is a column about 10 cm. in size, comparable to a down pipe.
It can thus integrate perfectly with both old
and new buildings, even on the principle facade. The exposed surfaces may be
painted (in any color).
Applications
Fire escape equipment. Providing exterior
access for the fire brigade and rescue services.
Guaranteed Operation in All Weather
Conditions
Constructed in anodized aluminum alloy,
stainless steel and nylon, it requires no special maintenance. The ladder and
its opening mechanism have been tested at abnormally high temperatures and
submitted to alternating wet and immediate freeze-thaw cycles at -40C in a cold
chamber. The opening mechanism continues to function and the ladder is deployed
normally in both these extremes of climate.
Simple and Quick Operation :
A simple quarter-turn of the operating
handle located at the level of one of the emergency exits and the ladder
unfolds over its full height.
The unfolding action is dampened by
stainless steel compensating springs which also help in folding the
ladder back after use. A side guard rail located in the exterior upright
is opened by hand to protect the user on his descent.
Options : The JOMY ladder may be opened
by an electronic drive with controls at each level and supplied by a
fire alarm and detecting system or by a 24 V permanent rechargeable
battery. |

Protection Against Misuse :
The control lever at the ground level may be
removed and the opening mechanism protected by a padlocked cover. This protection
does not prevent the ladder being deployed from the other levels. At its base
the ladder may be located in an "anti-climb" U channel over a height of about
3m. An alarm sensor and/or a floodlight, triggered by the operation of the
ladder may be installed.
Certifications :
The JOMY ladder has passed laboratory tests in
the Benelux countries, the Federal Republic of Germany, in the USA, in Japan...
It is also advised, or even recommended, by the emergency services in many
countries.
