Top 3 Frequently Asked Questions

1. Can this ladder be used on uneven ground? Like all A-frame ladders, it is designed for use on firm, level surfaces. For uneven ground, we recommend using a specialized ladder leveling accessory.

2. How wide is the base for stability? The 8-step model features a significantly widened base footprint to maintain a low center of gravity, ensuring it feels stable even when standing on the upper rungs.

3. Is the top step safe to stand on? While heavy-duty, safety regulations recommend that you do not stand on the very top platform; it is designed to provide knee support and hold tools while you stand on the steps below.
