Step ladders 

Ideal for home use, step ladders are stable and easy to manoeuvre for those hard-to-reach places. A small ladder suits indoor jobs where a full-height model would be difficult to store between uses.

Extension ladders

Perfect for outdoor projects, these extend to various lengths, making them suitable for tasks that require extra height.

Platform ladders

Offering a stable surface at the top, platform ladders are great for jobs that require a steady hand for longer periods.

Folding ladders

These folding models are highly versatile and can be configured into different shapes to suit a wide range of tasks.

Telescoping ladders

Compact and easy to store, telescoping options extend and lock by the foot to a variety of heights.

Library ladders

The advantages of high-quality ladders

A library ladder runs on a rail fixed above the shelving it serves, giving access to upper shelves in a study or living room and standing flat against the joinery when it is not needed. The Library Ladder by Quartersawn, listed here, is one example. The ladder style affects how the shelving and joinery are detailed, so allow for its position and the passage around it before the layout is settled. A ladder shelf, by comparison, is a piece of shelving rather than access equipment, though the two are often confused.

Investing in a high-quality ladder comes with numerous benefits. They are designed to last, built from materials that can withstand the rigours of frequent use. Safety is paramount, and high-quality options feature traits like anti-slip feet, sturdy platforms, and secure locking mechanisms to keep you safe at any height. Plus, a top-tier ladder will provide versatility for a multitude of tasks, making it a worthwhile addition to any toolkit.

How to choose the right ladder for you

When it comes to picking the perfect ladder for your needs, there are several key factors to take into account. The height of the ladder is critical; it should be tall enough to comfortably reach your work area without stretching. The material is another consideration: aluminium is lightweight and resistant to corrosion, while fibreglass offers robustness and protection against electrical hazards. Don't forget to check the weight capacity to ensure it can bear your weight plus any equipment you'll carry. Lastly, think about storage-folding and telescoping ladders are particularly space-efficient. By keeping these points in mind, you can select a ladder that ensures safety, meets your requirements, and fits your storage space. For a garage ladder serving loft access or overhead storage, check that it has a clear position beneath the opening, away from vehicles and the door track. Where floor-to-landing heights or fixing points are unusual, a custom ladder such as the Caged Ladder by Monkeytoe can be specified to the site.
