8 Tread Step Ladders

We manufacture all 8 tread ladders to exacting standards using aluminium, fibreglass, or timber.

Platform & Reach Heights

• Platform height: approximately 1.80 to 1.95 metres
• Reach height: approximately 3.50 to 3.70 metres, based on an average user reach of 1.75 metres when standing on the platform
• Swingback models (without a platform) have a lower safe standing level, typically the third tread down, giving an approximate reach height of 3.10 to 3.30 metres, depending on the ladder's design and the user's height.

What Are 8 Tread Ladders Ideal For?

These ladders provide a confident working height for both indoor and outdoor tasks, particularly where portability and quick setup are key. For instance: 

• Changing light fittings on higher ceilings
• Painting or decorating rooms 
• Clearing single-storey gutters or accessing flat rooflines
• Maintenance tasks in schools, offices, workshops, and other commercial spaces
• Jobs that require safe, stable access at intermediate heights
