Collapsing down to just 1.1m, it’s also easy to store away when not in use.It may surprise you to learn that there are many distinct types of ladders, covering everything from step ladders to articulated ladders and beyond. The most common of all the ladders you will have seen being used by tradesmen is the extension ladder. While these are sturdy and reliable, they’re also heavy, often difficult to extend without effort, and need a lot more room for storage. Easy to install with no cutting required, the Homebase Loft Ladder is adjustable to three lengths and telescopes down to a decidedly compact form, making it ideal for tight spaces.

The fixed, retractable design of loft ladders allows them to effortlessly slide or fold up into your loft space when you close the hatch.

Reaching too high - it is standard practice of ladder use that the user should never stand on the top two rungs as this affects stability and balance. If you are using a combination ladder with extending sections, the upper section should be extended to allow the climber to reach higher. You must ensure that your body is always positioned over the rungs and not reaching out the side, as this pulls all the weight to one side. A combination ladder that has an ‘A’ frame should be set up and placed side on to the desired area to offer better reach whilst maintaining strong stability.
