Step stools for airport and station washrooms
Families pass through your washrooms between flights and trains, all day. A retractable step under one sink lets children aged 2 to 8 wash on their own, without a parent lifting them over a wet basin.
What we hear from airports & stations
Families in a hurry
A layover is short. A parent juggling bags and a child cannot also lift them to the faucet.
Round the clock cleaning
Washrooms are cleaned many times a day. Anything loose gets moved, stored or thrown away.
Many washrooms, one standard
Terminals, gates and arrival halls need the same answer everywhere.
Where to install it
- Washrooms near the gates with family areas and play zones
- The arrival hall and baggage claim, where families wait
- Family and companion washrooms
- One sink per row, to start
Our recommendation
K01 The Klimbo
Our first K01 went into Montréal-Trudeau airport in 2017. Aluminum, a 5 year warranty that covers the mechanism, and clean lines that suit a terminal.
See the model →Three gestures, nothing to manage
Pull
The child pulls the step out with a foot and steps up.
Reach
They reach the faucet and wash on their own.
Folds back
After use, the step folds back under the sink.
A very practical and very sturdy product that meets our maintenance standards.
Montréal-Trudeau AirportQuestions from airports & stations
Can it be installed in an operating terminal?
Yes. The K01 anchors to the concrete slab in front of an existing sink in about 15 minutes, without plumbing work.
How many units for a terminal?
Start with one sink per row in the washrooms closest to family areas, then extend. For 4 units or more, ask for a quote.
Can the color match our design?
The standard color is RAL 7047 Telegrey. The 190 classic RAL colors and Axalta metallic finishes are available on special order, for a surcharge.

Step Stool Solutions for Airports & Travel Stations
Airports and travel stations are high-traffic transportation hubs operating continuously and serving a wide range of users, including families with young children and passengers of different physical abilities. Restrooms in these environments must meet strict requirements for safety, hygiene, durability, and accessibility, while remaining easy to maintain at scale.
Providing safe access to sinks for children requires step solutions that function reliably in busy, shared public restrooms, without creating obstacles, clutter, or additional workload for maintenance and cleaning teams.
In transportation facilities, step stools must be stable, intuitive to use, and suitable for unsupervised public environments, while supporting consistent accessibility standards across terminals and locations.
Accessibility and operational challenges in airports & travel stations
Airports and travel stations face specific constraints:
Continuous passenger flow and peak traffic periods
Restrooms used by families, children, staff, and travelers from around the world
High cleaning frequency and strict hygiene protocols
Safety and liability concerns in open-access public spaces
Need for standardized solutions across multiple terminals or sites
Loose or inappropriate step stools can shift, create tripping hazards, or require constant staff intervention, making them poorly suited for transportation environments.
Step stool solutions designed for transportation facilities
Klimbo designs commercial-grade step stool solutions adapted to the operational realities of airports, train stations, and other transit hubs.
Depending on the facility layout and operational needs, Klimbo offers:
Fixed, retractable step stools anchored to the floor, providing a permanent and space-saving solution in high-traffic restrooms
