SKEETER STEP-SIDE 

The Skeeter Step-Side offers an elevated advantage when attacking fast-moving fires. Secure personnel on each side of the apparatus in a protected firefighting position for better visibility and greater mobility.  We designed a 24” walkway with side-to-side access and swing-in safety lock gates.  The step-side cubicles can be equipped with top-mount pump controls, cameras, ground and scene lighting, whip lines or additional storage.

Available on most commercial chassis and loaded with flexibility, just the way you need it. Our units are simple to operate easy to maintain and maximize truck efficiency. These highly mobile apparatus can fight fires offensively with minimal man power needs.
