Which telescopic ladder height do I need?
Pick the ladder by the height you need to reach. Each section unlocks in roughly 1-foot increments, so a longer ladder can still be used at a lower height.
- 2.9 m (9.5 ft) – lofts, ceiling fans, AC indoor units, shop shelves.
- 3.8 m (12.5 ft), 13 steps – collapses to 86.5 cm, 10.4 kg. High ceilings, signboards, godown racks.
- 4.4 m (14.5 ft) – single-storey rooftops and parapets.
- 5.4 m (18 ft) and 6.2 m (20.5 ft), 15 steps – first-floor windows, AC outdoor units, hoardings.
- 7.2 m (24 ft), 16 steps, supplied with a base stabiliser – maintenance contractors, warehouses, halls.
Need a free-standing ladder as well as a straight one? The A-Frame Telescopic Ladder folds in the middle: use it as an A-type step ladder where there is no wall to lean on, or straighten it for full height.
What EN131 means
EN131 is the European safety standard for portable ladders, covering materials, strength and stability. All Gobbler telescopic ladders are EN131 certified with a 150 kg load capacity.
Safety features
Locking pins hold each section in place and prevent sliding, and the ladder retracts smoothly rather than dropping. Double couplings on every rung keep your hands in the right position to avoid pinching. Anti-slip rubber-tipped feet keep the base stable. Always check that every locking button is in the locked position before climbing, and read the instruction manual before first use.
