Extension Ladders

Reach New Heights with Extension Ladders

Extension ladders are essential for safely accessing elevated areas around your property. Whether cleaning gutters, painting walls, or performing roof maintenance, the right ladder ensures tasks are completed efficiently and securely.

Our range includes quality ladders from trusted Australian brands like Bailey and Hurricane, meeting strict safety standards. With adjustable heights from 2.4 metres to over 9 metres, these ladders provide flexibility for various tasks without needing multiple tools.

When selecting an extension ladder, consider the maximum height required. A good rule is choosing a ladder that extends at least one metre above your highest working point. Most models support 120kg to 150kg, accommodating tools and materials.

Key features include non-slip rubber feet for stability, reinforced rungs for durability, and smooth rope-and-pulley systems for easy height adjustment. Aluminium ladders offer strength and portability, while fibreglass options provide electrical insulation for work near power lines.

We stock ladders for both DIY and professional use, including single-section models for simple tasks and multi-section designs for greater versatility and compact storage.

Frequently Asked Questions

What height extension ladder do I need?

Measure the highest point you need to reach and add at least one metre. Avoid standing on the top three rungs, factoring this into your height requirements.

Are extension ladders safe for DIY use?

Yes, when used correctly. Maintain three points of contact, set up on firm, level ground, and follow the 4-to-1 ratio rule – position the base one metre out for every four metres of height.

How do I store my extension ladder?

Store horizontally in a dry, covered area. Wall-mounted brackets keep ladders off the ground, preventing warping and weather damage.
