Adding an extension ladder to your DIY or professional kit is an excellent idea, but choosing the best one for you can be tricky. There are so many different options on the market, and it can be overwhelming, but lucky for you - we've got some ladder experts on hand who can help you out! We're going to talk you through some of the best extension ladders out there so that you can choose the perfect one for you.
How to choose the best extension ladder for you
Here are a few questions we would recommend answering if you're trying to decide which extension ladder is best for you. An extension ladder that might be perfect for you and your requirements might not be the best extension ladder for someone else, so it really is important that you fully explore the size, use, material, etc. that's right for you.
1. Are you a professional tradesperson or a DIY-er?
We have a great selection of professional and home extension ladders for you to choose from. Extension ladders have to be certified to different standards depending on where they'll be used, so this is one of the most important questions when it comes to finding the best extension ladder for you.
2. Will you be working around electrical hazards such as power lines?
Working around electrical hazards can be really dangerous - even life-threatening in some instances. To reduce the risk of electric shock, you should look at purchasing one of our fibre glass extension ladders. These non-conductive ladders are perfect for protecting you against electric shocks!
3. How high will you need to climb?
If you're a homeowner who's only ever going to need to reach up to the guttering (at most), then a double extension ladder should suffice. However, if you're going to need to reach higher than this on occasion, we'd recommend one of our triple extension ladders for extra height.
