Research: Telescopic Ladder #161

Closed nelsonic closed 1 month ago

nelsonic commented 5 months ago

Context

We have a ladder that we bought in 2019 to access the Attic when we were scoping the conversion. Sadly, it's been abused by the workmen (M) outside and has lost it's protective rubber "feet".

The Water Well men had a sturdy telescopic ladder that they used to access higher up when they were installing pipes. 🪜

So I'm considering getting a telescopic ladder that would "live" inside the workshop and be useful to us inside the house and never be left outside in the elements.

The Hailo model is visibly better and has good reviews: https://www.leroymerlin.pt/produtos/ferragens/escadotes-tamboretes-e-escadas/escadas/escada-telescopica-de-aluminio-12-1-degraus-hailo-19129971.html

Would have already used this today if I'd had it available ... 💭

Edit: used a lesser step-ladder. 🪜 But for accessing the attic going to need something a bit taller. 💭
