Advantages

The ladder combines aluminium durability with a compact folded footprint, making it easy to move and store.

The rated 150 kg load capacity supports a range of users and basic tool loads, and the folding mechanism allows quick setup and safe transportation between job sites.

Suitable for

• Household maintenance and painting
• Light construction and renovation tasks
• DIY projects requiring medium-height access
• Commercial use where a portable, foldable ladder is needed

When it may not be suitable

This ladder is not intended for heavy industrial use or tasks requiring prolonged work at high elevations. For jobs that need greater reach, higher load capacity, or specialized platforms, a taller or purpose-built access system should be chosen. The ladder's aluminium construction means it is lightweight but may transmit cold or heat and should be handled with appropriate gloves in extreme temperatures.

How to use

Place the ladder on a stable, level surface and fully extend and lock the folding mechanism before climbing.
