Title: Multi Purpose Ladders
Post by: Juliand on September 19, 2016, 10:32:34 am

Having left several kinds of ladders at my old property, and moved again, I now need to acquire new step ladders / longer reach for occasional use, like gutter above garage, stairs for painting etc

Rather than buying different ones, i was wondering if these multi purpose ones that do a stepladder combo with extending function are any good. Not really got the storage space, so was hoping that a combo would do, but concerned that they don't do any job properly.

Anyone recommend anything, please?

For the non professional, occasional user my recommendation would be item code no. 64728 on the Screwfix website.  :happy2:

For safety I reasons I would get a mobile aluminium tower. Very handy piece of kit that flat packs into the size of two stacked pallets.

Bought one of these for round the house.
