- Step Ladders (A-Frame Ladders)
When you need a freestanding ladder, step ladders—also known as A-Frame ladders—are the go-to choice.
- Fibreglass Double-Sided A-Frame Ladders for general or electrical work.
- Key Benefits:
- Non-conductive fibreglass frames (ideal for electrical safety).
- Stainless steel fittings for durability.
- Rubber non-slip feet for secure placement.
- Strong load capacity for safe use.
These ladders are perfect for electricians, facilities managers, and DIY users who value both portability and safety.
- Extension Ladders
For jobs that require extra reach, extension ladders are an excellent solution.
Features include:
- Available in aluminium (lightweight, easy to transport) and fibreglass (non-conductive safety).
- Suitable for roof work, signage installation, exterior painting, and high shelving.
- Weather-resistant construction for indoor and outdoor use.
An extension ladder from Supplywise ensures you can reach new heights—safely and efficiently.
- Rolling Safety Ladders (Mobile Ladders)
In warehouse and industrial settings, you often need both height and mobility. Supplywise’s rolling safety ladders deliver both:
- Safety handrails for stability.
- Lockable and fixed castors for mobility with security.
- Corrosion-resistant frames for heavy-duty environments.
- Wide steps for comfort and balance.
These ladders are designed for stock picking, maintenance, and other frequent high-reach tasks.
How to Choose the Right Ladder
When selecting the right ladder for your needs, consider:
- Material – Choose fibreglass for electrical safety or aluminium for lightweight portability.
- Height Requirement – Match the ladder to your maximum working height needs.
- Load Capacity – Ensure it supports your weight plus any tools or materials.
- Mobility – Select rolling ladders for large spaces or fixed A-frames for stable setups.
- Safety Features – Look for non-slip feet, wide steps, sturdy hinges, and handrails.
