Which Size?
Always consider carefully which size of ladder is required. You must be able to do your work comfortably without over-reaching up, down or sideways. Remember that working height (ie. the height that can be reached comfortably) is:
• Approximately 2m (6'0") above quoted platform heights for stepladders/stools
• Approximately equal to extended lengths for extension ladders
• Approximately 1m (3'0") above quoted top tread heights for 3 ways/combination ladders in any mode.
Safety First
Every month, more than a thousand people need hospital treatment because of accidents at home involving stepladders and extension ladders.
