Whether you're a tradesman or homeowner who enjoys DIY projects around your home, it's likely you've discovered that many jobs require specialised tools and equipment. It's important to choose the right tool for the task at hand. Not only will this help expedite the work, but also will ensure it's performed safely. Ladders, in particular, needed to be used according to the manufacturer's specifications and only for the purpose for which they're intended. Whilst most of us want to work safely, we can't afford to acquire a collection of costly special purpose ladders. Luckily, there's a unique type of ladder that performs a wide range of functions safely and efficiently. Read on to learn about multi purpose ladders.
Multi Purpose Ladders: Their Many Uses
Multi purpose ladders combine a number of features in a single, foldable or telescopic design. Besides stepladders, they also function as extension ladders, low scaffolds and work platforms. Aluminium is the preferred metal, since it does not rust or corrode and is very light in weight. In addition, aluminium is exceptionally durable and does not rot the way wood does or splinter the way glass fibre can. The only drawback to aluminium ladders is that they will conduct an electric current, and so should never be used around power lines or other electrical sources. Why not let the experts at the Telescopic Ladder Shop advise you on the multi purpose ladder that's right for you? Here's some information about three of the models we carry.
Multi Purpose Ladders: The Titan Flexi-Plus Model
Titan is a leader in the industry, providing a variety of ladders that are affordable and soundly designed. The Flexi-Plus model can be transformed from a stable and reliable step ladder to an extension ladder for house painting, window washing and other home repairs. Although its aluminium design makes it durable, it's light enough for one person to handle easily. It comes complete with a safe and sturdy hard plastic platform that's easy to fix and remove. The ladder carries the EN131 kitemark, which means it's suitable for use in trade or domestic environments. It has a 150kg duty rating, so it's safe for use in most non-industrial applications. The platform height is 88cm and when used as a stepladder, it's 163cm high. As a straight ladder it will reach 334cm. The ladder weighs 12kg. This ladder can be found at the Telescopic Ladder Shop for a price of £94.99, which includes VAT and free next day delivery.
Multi Purpose Ladders: The Titan Tiger Plus Telescopic Model
This type of ladder is ideal for people with limited storage space, since it telescopes down to a manageable size when not in use. It's a fully adjustable stepladder with a handy platform. If you're looking for a ladder with exceptional durability, this one is a good choice, because it's constructed from aluminium with a titanium anodised inner section that ensures smooth deployment when used as an extension ladder. The Tiger Plus also features large feet for an extra measure of stability, and has a unique patented auto locking hinge design. Its maximum load capacity is 150kg. The platform height range is 67 to 94cm. As a stepladder, it's 147 to 173cm high. When deployed as a straight ladder, it will reach heights of 305 to 363cm. The ladder weighs just 9.3kg.

It's fitted with a sturdy platform as well as with a step platform. Both remove easily. The ladder conforms to the EN131 standard. It features stabilisers to maximise user safety and has an innovative and easy to use “click and lock” hinge system. Because it's collapsible, the ladder is exceptionally easy to transport and store.
