A wrong ladder could cause you serious injury in the emergency room. Because DIYers do not use ladders correctly, many accidents occur every year.


You can practice better ladder safety when you understand possible ladder errors. Let's take a look at some of the most common mistakes DIYers make when using ladders.


3 ladder mistakes made by DIYers.


1: Did not choose the right ladder


Ladder may be common and inexpensive, but they are not suitable for all jobs. Telescopic ladders can usually provide you with a greater range, but they are not suitable for all jobs.


Choosing the right ladder for the job has a great impact on the safety of the ladder. Don't make mistakes by choosing the wrong ladder.

2: Forget the height


You might think that since you must be 12 feet tall, an 8-foot ladder can solve the problem. This is often not the case. Make sure that the ladder you choose is high enough so that you can use it safely.


For example, when using a telescopic ladder to climb a roof, it should extend at least three feet beyond the top of the roof. If it is too short, you have made a serious ladder error, which may cost you.


3: Choose a bad surface for trapezoidal feet


The foot of the ladder may have a perfectly level surface, but it is very smooth. This is dangerous, just as it is dangerous to use a ladder on an uneven floor.


Adding the right ladder accessories can help make your ladder safer to use on uneven floors or smooth surfaces. Make sure you have added the correct accessories or you have chosen a different place to set up your ladder.
