Choosing the Right Ladder or Step Stool

To select the appropriate ladder or step stool for your needs, consider factors such as the required height, weight capacity, and type of work. For electrical work, a fibreglass ladder is recommended due to its non-conductive properties. For general use, aluminium ladders offer a lightweight and durable option. Step stools are best suited for quick access to elevated areas, such as storage shelves or cupboards.

 

Proper Ladder and Step Stool Safety

Safety is paramount when using ladders or step stools. Always follow the manufacturer's guidelines and maintain three points of contact while climbing or descending. Do not overreach or stand on the top rungs of a ladder, and ensure the ladder is placed on a stable, level surface. Regularly inspect your ladder or step stool for any damage, and replace or repair it as needed.

 

Ladder and Step Stool Maintenance

Proper maintenance is crucial for the longevity of your ladder or step stool. Inspect your equipment regularly for any signs of wear or damage, and clean it periodically to remove dirt and debris. When storing your ladder or step stool, keep it in a cool, dry place and, if possible, hang it horizontally on a wall to prevent warping.
