Aluminium ladder 6 steps 3.24 m 4.8 kg

Aluminium ladder, 6 rungs, height 3.24 m, weight 4.8 kg.

A straight lean-to ladder for a specific reach. 3.24 metres gets you to a near-standard 3 m ceiling with room to spare. Reach a cornice, work near the ceiling, access a high shelf.

4.8 kg is light. One person carries and positions it without help. Aluminium won't rust - lasts well with correct storage.

Six rungs - fixed count. Not adjustable, doesn't fold into transformer mode. But the construction is simple and solid, fewer moving parts means less chance of play developing.

Lean firmly against the wall, don't work at an angle. For ceiling work - a stepladder or transformer is better; don't use a lean-to at a slope.
