beware of triples,i bought a set and they were just too heavy to use

Triples are heavy, thats true

But what is most difficult is extending them.  You have to lift two sections with one hand for which you need to have superman arms.  Otherwise you can scrape them up the wall they're leaning against, but thats not always possible.

Its also fun getting them on and off the roofrack.

Its all possible, but if you can find a different way to clean without having to use them, I'd recommend that instead.

I know what you mean, i'll be keeping one section off whilst using them, and keeping that on roof rack but if I need it, it's there for gutters etc.

Any up for grabs?

Hi Shawn

I have a set of 3 meter triples.

Got rid of my triple section,(B&Q) too heavy, tried using two sections but unable to do all the ordinary jobs. The rubber feet were worn right down to the metal after only 3 weeks use. I replace to feet on 2 section every 5/6 months, even after that time they aren't really worn.

I bought a brand new set of Titan Triples - 7.1m (23'4") extended...  They are SO bloomin' heavy but fortunately they are so long i can reach windows with just the two smaller sections, which is great i suppose as i can use all three if needed.  Still...the 2 sections seem to be alot heavier than other ladders i've used in the past...

[S_RICHARDSON]

I know what you mean the sides seem to be thicker and wider thats why their heavier, i'm sure you'll get use to it!

Yeah they are comfortable ladder to be up because of their wideness, thicker sides and feel really sturdy... They'll keep me in shape carting them around though   which is good!

Why not get wall wheels fitted at the factory before delivery. All our ladders have them, but our triples have wheels on the mid section too, just in case they're used as doubles at times.

Its also fun getting them on and off the roofrack.
Get a roofrack with a rollerbar - easy!

waviedavie,

do you do a trible 15" with rollers and if so how much

I don't supply them, I just use them!

We have two triples from Ramsays - TE3.5MD and they weigh 27Kg each. Not bad if you're used to them, but if you're really after a 15ft x triple, you're looking at a TE5.0MF weighing 52Kg - that's over eight stone - so I can guess what the MF stands for! Realistically, you're looking at rope-operated to be able to get them up and down - and two-man per ladder at least.

If you can afford to buy one of these beasties, (and afford to pay guys half an hour's wages just to climb to the window and back) you can easily afford wfp.
