About this product
3.2 metres extended, and short enough to keep in a cupboard.
Aluminium alloy, collapses section by section, so one ladder covers a single-storey gutter and a ceiling.
A telescoping ladder in aluminium alloy that extends to 3.2 metres.
The sections collapse into each other, so it stores in a cupboard or a boot.
3.2 metres reaches the gutter line of a typical single-storey house.
It is the same ladder for indoor work: ceilings, light fittings, painting.
Nothing is assembled.
The reason a telescoping ladder exists is storage. A 3.2 metre extension ladder is a 3.2 metre object all year for the two afternoons you use it; a telescoping one is the length of one section.
3.2 metres is the number to check against your own house. It reaches the gutter of a typical single-storey home with the ladder set at a safe angle. It does not reach a two-storey gutter, and no telescoping ladder this size should be asked to.
The material is aluminium alloy, which is what makes it carryable in one hand while the other holds a gutter scoop.
Set it on firm level ground, extend it fully and check every section has locked before you put weight on it. Have somebody foot it if you can.
It is a supplier-fulfilled line, dispatched direct.
