Ladders & Work Access

Ladders and work access equipment cover the systems homeowners use to reach, support, and stabilize tasks above normal standing height. This section focuses on how step stools, ladders, scaffolding, work platforms, and related accessories differ in height range, weight capacity, footprint, portability, storage demands, and job suitability. The goal is to help readers evaluate which access solutions make sense for painting, cleaning, repairs, installation work, and seasonal maintenance, with attention to durability, setup stability, working comfort, and long-term usefulness across a range of household tasks.
