Description
Lightweight, strong, and rust-resistant, aluminium step ladders are one of the most popular choices for both trade and domestic use. Whether you’re decorating a room, carrying out maintenance, or need a reliable ladder for everyday site work, we offer a wide range of sizes and styles — all made in the UK and built to last.
Types of Aluminium Step Ladders
We stock a variety of aluminium step ladders to suit different applications. Here's a quick overview to help you choose the best type for your task:
Platform Step Ladders: Feature a flat standing platform at the top, offering greater comfort and stability for longer tasks. Ideal when you need to work with both hands, such as painting or fixing overhead fixtures.
Swingback Step Ladders: A classic A-frame design without a platform. Lightweight and compact, they’re perfect for quick jobs and easy to store or transport.
Double-Sided Folding Steps: Allow access from either side, making them ideal for shared or collaborative tasks. They’re stable, symmetrical, and great for offices, storage areas, and light industrial use.
Step Ladders with Handrails: Many of our step ladders are available with optional handrails attached, offering an added sense of security, especially when climbing or descending with tools or materials.
Each type is available in a range of tread counts and configurations to suit the working height you need.

What are aluminium step ladders used for?
Aluminium step ladders are ideal for decorating, maintenance, electrical work, cleaning, and general access both at home and on site.
Are aluminium ladders safe for electrical work?
No, aluminium is a conductive material and should never be used near live electrical sources. For electrical tasks, fibreglass step ladders are the recommended alternative because they are non-conductive and specifically designed for electrical safety.
How tall are your aluminium step ladders?
We offer aluminium step ladders in a wide variety of sizes, from compact 2-tread models with platform heights around 0.45 metres, up to heavy-duty 24-tread options with platform heights reaching approximately 5.50 metres.
