A comb plate for a landing platform of an escalator is located between a fixed part of the platform and moving steps of the escalator, the comb plate comprising a comb base plate 2 carrying a plurality of teeth in the form of cleats 4 arranged in spaced parallel relationship, the teeth each being mounted on the comb base plate so as to be individually releasable from the comb base plate. Preferably the teeth are mounted on comb base plate on a locking pin (6 fig 6) extending across the base traverse to the direction of movement of the escalator steps. The teeth may also have two frangible projections (12 & 13 fig 4) engageable with a fixed element on the base which is frangible in response to movement of the tooth in response to a predetermined load. The outer ends of the teeth (11 fig 4) may also be coated with a visible coating of contrast and colour to that of the comb plate and step.
