Ladders are considered as one of the most important tools that you can have in your house. Whether you're a mother taking care of the household chores or a businessman trying to get your work done, ladders are really important. An extension ladder enables one to have access to spaces and places that they normally could not reach for. But what is exactly an extension ladder? What does it look like? How are they used? And what are the advantages of using one?
Extension ladders are separated into Extension Ladders two or three pieces, that you can pull-up and slide together for easy storage. It can be easily extended to its maximum length by sliding the pieces apart either manually or with a pulley system.
When choosing the ladder length, make sure to select the length that is longer than the highest part of the place that you need reach. An Extension ladder is available in cumulative lengths. Available lengths are: 4 feet, 16 feet, 20 feet and 24 feet. A 24-foot ladder is usually divided into 12-foot sections. But a 24-feet ladder doesn't exactly measure 24-feet because it is divided into two 12-foot sections that overlap, for extra strength when fully extended.
