"A"frame ladders
« on: June 16, 2016, 09:42:42 am »
I've searched ciu for this and it comes up with nothing.
For those with experience with them, are they worth paying extra for?
I would only be using it on bungalows.

Why do you need ladders for bungalows ? would it not be easier/ quicker to get an extension pole if your a little vertically challenged?

Or as shrek said, an extension pole perhaps,

That's about 12"
I have taken on a small round that's all trad (good prices) and there's flat roof extensions so I'll have a ladder out for access. I've started cleaning them trad and the frames haven't been cleaned for a long time so I'm ready for getting the wfp out when the rain stops.

Great ladders that allow you to safely climb where a standard ladder would leave it risky
To climb mount fuji you must first find a path

Well I've had a couple of wobbles from a very small ladder, with the oops sound affects.
