Hi All,
We think it is important that you are aware of the different classes and ratings are of a ladder, so we put together this blog to help.
Not everyone is an expert on ladders and not everyone has a large vehicle and garage to store a ladder in either.
Gone are the days when ladders were basic structures – with the one size fitted all approach. Then there was the danger factor to consider too. Thankfully, nowadays non slip feet, safety platforms and integral stabilizers are fitted as standard to ensure your safety.
So where should you start if you are a ‘ladder novice’?
The first thing you should ensure when buying any ladder is that it meets the required safety standard. In the UK there are 3 classification levels for aluminium ladders and step ladders. These are determined by the type of work that they will be used for, with all 3 classifications being within the scope of BS 2037.
