Special Extension Ladder Features

Extension ladders are not all built the same. When shopping around, be mindful of a few special features that may sway your purchasing decision, including:

  • Twin steps: An extension ladder may be designed to be collapsible, resembling a traditional A-frame ladder. This allows more than one person to work at the same time.
  • Reach height: Before you buy, consider the maximum height you’ll need to reach. That way, you don’t have to carry around extra bulk or extend your ladder too far.
  • Non-conductive: An essential feature for protecting against electrocution, materials like wood and fiberglass do not conduct electricity, but aluminum can.

What is a Telescoping Ladder?

Another type of extension ladder is the telescoping ladder. Despite their many similarities, a telescoping ladder is far more versatile than a normal extension ladder. They can typically be extended one section at a time to offer you more control of the exact height you need for your job. You can easily transform your model into an A frame telescoping ladder for changing a light fixture in the middle of your ceiling, or extend it to rest on a shelf in your pantry to get a hard-to-reach item.

Compact Extension Ladder for Home Use

Step ladders or step stools might be good for routine use, but you may sometimes need more reach than a standard ladder can provide. That’s where a compact extension ladder comes in handy. Compact, portable, and lightweight, consider a small telescoping ladder for many internal jobs around your home. Available as collapsible or foldable extension ladders, they are easy to store, transport and extend far enough to reach the desired height.

Commercial Extension Ladders

When choosing a commercial extension ladder, consider the types of jobs you may be taking on in the future. Heavy-duty fiberglass extension ladders that boast up to 40 feet of additional height can help you tackle the tallest jobs, while 28-foot and 30-foot aluminum ladders are cost-effective and offer plenty of extension for shorter tasks.

Benefits of Aluminum vs Fiberglass Extension Ladders

While both aluminum and fiberglass have their advantages, knowing the benefits of each can help you make an informed decision.

  • Aluminum: The lightweight extension ladder option, aluminum is commonly used and easy to maneuver. They are highly durable and can often support more than one person if need be.
  • Fiberglass: Heavier than aluminum and relatively harder to maneuver, fiberglass extension ladders are also very strong and can be more durable than aluminum when treated correctly. Fiberglass is resistant to electricity, making it a great option for specific projects.
