Title: Do such a pair of ladders exist ?
Post by: Ian101 on December 11, 2013, 04:44:36 pm
My collapseable ladders are getting past it and need replacing.

Is there 1 set of ladders that can be used to get over gates eg go up and down hinged in middle, be used as normal ladders and act as step ladders as well.

prob asking too much ?

I have a little giant as well, they are brilliant, but I would recommend the one screwfix sell, it's half the price and actually feels more stable when opened up and used as a normal ladder.

I had the screwfix one first but it was a couple of inches taller when collapsed that the little giant and made it difficult getting it in the van upright. Ever since I had the little giant I have always though the screwfix one was better, .
