Title: The best Telescopic Ladders?
Post by: WFPjamesWFP on September 18, 2018, 11:57:34 pm

Yes many say there unsafe but I only use them for odd jobs.

Question is which are the best?

I’ve used some cheap ones from my local diy shop think they were about £50

Has anyone seen any that have better clamp buttons than the usual?

NONE - DO NOT BUY TELESCOPIC LADDERS
I had a pair years ago for 2 jobs a month, the last time I used them I was climbing upto a flat roof and one side gave way. I threw them in the bin and bought some folding ladders and never looked back
