A marine gangway ensures comfortable and safe access to your boat, even when the water level changes. Our pontoon gangways are available in both wooden and metal constructions, designed for long‑lasting durability in marina environments.
The standard lengths of the wooden pontoon gangway are 1 m, 1.2 m, and 1.5 m. Standard lengths range from 3 m to 6 m.
The standard widths of the metal marine gangways are 1.2 m and 1.8 m. Standard lengths range from 6 m to 12 m.
Choosing the Right Pontoon Gangway
The choice of pontoon gangway construction depends on three equally important factors:
The model of the pontoon
The distance from the pontoon to the shore
The range of water level fluctuation
We make the process simple: choose your floating pontoon and tell us how far from the shore it will be installed, and our engineers will include a pontoon gangway of the correct length and design in your package.
Alternatively, you can use our marine gangway web application (guide available here) to visualise your design in minutes. Once submitted, our engineers will prepare an updated drawing and a final quotation.
If you are an architect or engineer, you can also download CAD models of all our products, including pontoon gangways and abutments, from the ProdLib catalogue (guide available here).
Arch Bridge for Pontoons
Add a unique look to your pontoon with a wooden arch bridge, available in a standard length of 4 m.
Abutments
Abutments secure the gangway to the shore and are selected according to the soil type.
The standard widths for abutments are 1.2 m and 1.5 m.
The most common and easy‑to‑install option is an abutment with screw piles:

In rocky locations, a concrete abutment adds extra stability:
For installations on cliffs, a special cliff abutment is used:

Accessories for Pontoon Gangways
For added safety and style, pontoon gangways can be fitted with railings, which also enhance the appearance. Options include bench‑integrated armrests.
Gates
A gate improves marina or swimming area security by controlling or restricting access. Card access systems can also be integrated.
Standard gate widths: 1.2 m and 1.8 m.
