Multipurpose Ladders

Multipurpose Ladders

Whether you’re a DIY enthusiast or a professional tradesperson, a multi-purpose ladder is a useful piece of kit. As their name suggests, a multi-purpose ladder can be used in a range of different ways, which makes them one of the most cost-effective and adaptable ladder options on the market. Multi-purpose ladders from BPS can be used in multiple different configurations; some of the most common ones include:

  • Step ladder: ideal for when you’re working at low levels or when you need your ladder to be freestanding
  • Extension ladder: perfect for when you need to reach high levels, this ladder configuration needs to be leant against a wall
  • Work platform: this configuration gives you valuable extra low-level space to work when you are doing odd jobs such as painting and decorating
  • Stairway ladder/Stairwell ladder: providing maximum stability while you complete jobs on uneven ground and stairs

 

Multi-purpose ladders can be used in the place of three or four ladders at least! This makes them ideal for mobile tradespeople who need to be able to take all of their equipment with them from one job to the next. One of the biggest benefits of multi-purpose ladders is that they can be folded down to be compact, lightweight, and convenient, whilst still providing you with all the height, access, and stability you need to get any job done safely. A folding ladder is excellent for storage, and combination ladders can be used in place of multiple ladders. An extremely versatile option, multi purpose ladders are certainly worth considering.

These ladders are also perfect for people who are on a tight budget because, instead of spending extra on a selection of different ladders for specific jobs, you can have one ladder that will do it all. No matter if you want to paint your landing, clean the gutters, or trim the hedges, a multi-purpose ladder will help you complete a range of jobs easily.

With our range of multi-purpose ladders at BPS, you will get some high-quality features that make our ladders stand out from the competition. One such example is our ladders being supplied with an extra strong, 1.65mm thick steel platform, whereas other inferior models have thin platforms that bend easily when they are stood on and weight is applied. We offer a protective maximum load so you can work comfortably on work platforms. Also, you will get 100mm diameter locking hinges that provide extra strength at the moving joints and so reduce the flex in the ladder, so you feel completely safe and confident when climbing.

Easy operation is important which is why our ladders have locking levers on each hinge, allowing the user to unlock and manoeuvre the ladder into any position you want effortlessly.

Are multipurpose and combi ladders the same thing?

Combination ladders and multi purpose ladders are essentially the same thing, but combination ladders usually only combine 2 or 3 ladder types, whereas multi purpose ladders tend to combine more ladders, making them incredibly versatile.

Other websites may use the same terms in a different way, but at BPS combination ladders and multipurpose ladders are similar, but distinct products benefiting from similar technologies and designs in different configurations.
