In daily life and work, home ladders are one of our indispensable tools. Whether it is home decoration, cleaning, repair or other tasks, ladders can provide us with convenience. However, safety issues when using ladders are often overlooked, leading to some unnecessary accidents. As a home ladder supplier, we would like to remind you how to ensure safety and avoid potential dangers when using ladders.

Choose the right ladder

The first step to safety is to choose the right ladder. Different tasks require different types of ladders. Make sure you choose a ladder that suits your needs. For example, when working at height, you should choose an aluminum alloy ladder or a fiberglass ladder with stronger stability. These ladders are not only lightweight, but also strong and durable, and can provide sufficient support to reduce the risk of tilting and sliding. As a ladder supplier, we provide a variety of ladders of different types and heights to meet various usage needs.

Check the stability of the ladder

Before using the ladder, always check the stability of the ladder. Make sure the ladder is placed on a stable ground and avoid using it on uneven ground or slippery surfaces. If the ladder foot pads are worn or damaged, please replace them in time. Check the ladder's feet and support points to ensure they are secure and not unstable and can tip over.

Avoid using a ladder that is too long for one person

Using a ladder that is too long, especially without help, can cause the ladder to tip over or lose balance. Try to avoid using a ladder that is too long for one person. If the task requires standing on the ladder for a long time, it is best to have someone stand at the bottom of the ladder to assist with support, or choose a more suitable working platform.

Ensure the ladder is positioned correctly

When using a ladder, make sure the ladder is at the right angle. Generally, the bottom of the ladder should be 1/4 of the height from the wall to ensure that the ladder is more stable. When standing on the top of the ladder, try to avoid overextending your body to avoid losing balance.

Wear appropriate protective equipment

When using a ladder, make sure you wear appropriate shoes and avoid shoes with smooth soles to reduce the risk of slipping. Avoid wearing loose clothing and accessories that may get caught on the ladder during use.

Check the condition of the ladder regularly

As a ladder supplier, we strongly recommend that users check the condition of the ladder regularly to ensure that it is not damaged. Whether the ladder treads, handrails and frames are loose, cracked or otherwise damaged will affect the safety of the ladder. Any damaged ladder should be stopped immediately and repaired or replaced.

Follow the operating instructions

Different types of ladders have different usage requirements. Be sure to read and follow the ladder's instruction manual to ensure that you operate the ladder correctly. When working at height, try to avoid making violent movements on the ladder to reduce the chance of accidents.
