The Ladder You Need For Heavy-Duty Work


Steel ladders are usually called upon when secure and heavy-duty vertical climbing is in order. The steel ladder is available without the walk-thru handrails at the summit of the ladder or at the landing surface. The walk-thru handrails at the summit of the ladder could also be attached at a fair price by request too.

The walk-thru handrails are standardized at or up to 20', but this comes without the safety cage. This is because the safety cage is usually attached to the steel ladder when the ladder height is more than 20' as per the general rule. Exceptions are made on occassion for the likes of old steel ladders, where separate safety steel cages are attached to the ladders to reduce risk of injury.

Safety cages for steel ladders are available in various lengths and widths. Sizing of these steel ladder safety cages range from 10' to 29' and over depending upon the needs of the user. But it is recommended that under no circumstances should the parts of this heavy duty steel ladder ever exceed a length of 7', be it sub-assemblies or any other parts.

Steel ladders are well-known for their durability as well as reliability when heavy-duty work needs to be done. These steel ladders are effective in use but they should be well maintained with frequent washings because steel ladders are by nature rugged and paint free along with being non-corrosive.

The steel ladder is available in a variety of lengths starting from 3' 3" to a maximum of 29'. Length of the steel ladder also determines the number of rungs on the ladder. It starts with a minimum 4 rungs and moves up to 30 rungs for the 29' steel ladder model. As expected, the price also varies from a starting margin of $169 up to $756 for the 29' model.

In closing, the steel ladder is one of he most durable and reliable of the plethora of ladders currently on the market.
