How can I use this extension ladder?
The Lyte DIY Double Extension Ladder is incredibly versatile and simple to use for a wide range of household tasks. It extends in two sections, allowing you to adjust the height to suit everything from cleaning first-floor windows to reaching rooflines for gutter clearing or exterior painting. To use it safely, place the ladder on a firm, level surface, ensure the stabiliser bar is in full contact with the ground, and extend it gradually to your desired height using the built-in guides and hooks. Always follow the 1-in-4 rule (1 metre out for every 4 metres high) when leaning it against a wall, and never exceed the 125kg load rating. When used correctly, this ladder provides a safe and reliable solution for accessing high places around the home.
