Passenger Boarding Stairs (GSE Support India-fabricated)

GSE Support India fabricates mobile passenger boarding stairs at its New Delhi facility, supplying the class of equipment that serves aircraft at remote stands, low-cost terminal aprons, and airports where jet bridges are absent or insufficient. These are manually-positioned or towed staircase units providing crew and passenger access to main-deck forward and aft doors on narrowbody and regional aircraft, and to the upper-deck service doors on widebody types where applicable. The stairs are constructed on a welded steel chassis with an adjustable-height platform sized to match the door-sill range of the intended aircraft family — typically 2,200 mm to 3,600 mm for narrowbody operations, covering the A320 and B737 door-sill envelope. Steps are fabricated from anti-slip aluminium or chequer-plate steel grating, with folding or fixed handrails on both sides compliant with safe-access standards. The platform deck is sized to accommodate the full width of the aircraft door, allowing simultaneous passenger flow in both directions during rapid-turn operations. For open-stand and remote-stand operators, fabricated stairs represent the lowest-cost and simplest-to-maintain access solution — no hydraulics, no propulsion system, no electrical supply required. GSE Support India's domestic fabrication model compresses the price gap versus imported units significantly. The equipment is well-suited to hot and dusty operating conditions typical of Indian domestic terminals and similarly demanding GCC regional airports, where corrosion-resistant paint finishes and simple mechanical construction are priorities over complex automated systems.
