Ladders

When setting up a ladder, one of the most important things to consider is the angle at which it should be placed. A ladder should be placed at an angle of between 75 and 80 degrees. This means that if the ladder is 1 meter high, the base should be at least 1.4 meters away from the wall or surface it's leaning against. By setting up the ladder at the correct angle, you'll ensure that it's stable and secure, reducing the risk of an accident. It's also important to make sure that the ladder is placed on a flat and level surface, and that the feet are firmly planted. All of this will help you stay safe when climbing up or down the ladder. So the next time you're setting up a ladder, make sure you follow these simple steps and place the ladder at the correct angle for maximum safety.

Roof ladders are incredibly useful tools that allow you to access roofs safely and easily. Before you start using one, it's important to make sure you have the right ladder for the job. Consider the size of the ladder, the weight of the person who will be using it, and the height of the roof. Once you've decided on the right ladder, you'll need to properly set it up. Make sure the feet of the ladder are firmly planted on the ground and the rails are straight. You'll also want to secure the ladder to the roof using the provided straps or ropes. Finally, when using the ladder, always be sure to keep three points of contact and take your time. With the right ladder and a bit of know-how, you'll be safely accessing roofs in no time!
