What is a Sliding Ladder? 

A sliding ladder is a specific type of ladder designed to reach both high and hard to access areas. A key feature of a sliding ladder is its ability to extend and retract along a singular rail. This makes it convenient to store within compact spaces whenever the ladder is not in use. Equipped with a locking mechanism, sliding ladders are able to remain securely in place when extended for usage.

Advantages of Using a Sliding Ladder

Sliding ladders offer several advantages:

  • Its ability to retract when not in use makes them ideal for usage and storage within locations with limited space.
  • The ladders can be easily extended and retracted along a rail, which enables simplified positioning when in need.
  • Sliding ladders are available in a variety of different material types and sizes. This makes them suitable for a range of usages.
  • They offer a cost-effective solution to everyday accessibility needs.

How to Choose a Sliding Ladder? 

If you’re keen on purchasing a sliding ladder for yourself or for your workers, here are a couple of considerations to take into account.

First, determine the exact amount of access required. Once you’ve taken into account the relevant height, width, and other key dimensions of your space, you’ll be able to decide on a ladder that’s most suitable for your needs. At SafeSmart Access, we offer ladders with varying height ranges, each suitable for different access needs.

Next, you have to consider the portability of your ladder. If you’re planning to use your ladder indoors, consider whether it’s able to fit through doorways or access narrow spaces. This is often an overlooked factor.

Third, make sure your sliding ladder adheres to safety standards. Conduct regular inspections to ensure that the ladder is always in safe working condition.

After deciding on the ideal sliding ladder, ensure that your team is well-trained and equipped with the necessary safety equipment when utilising the ladder. The ‘three-point-rule’ which requires that you must keep at least three points of contact when using a sliding ladder is considered a best practice. Likewise, if transporting heavy objects, it needs to be lifted up the ladder rather than be carried to mitigate injuries.
