Telescopic ladders?

[sparkywig]

Afternoon all.
I think I need a set of telescopic ladders for occasional work use, at the moment I'm using a fibreglass triple A frame set which get in the way in the van and aren't the easiest to lug about site.
Any recommendations please?
Thanks.

Not telescopic, but we use these
Sectional Surveyors Ladders
They are compact & lightweight & (depending how many sections you buy) have a longer reach.

Yes I have a pair think from screwfix or toolstation
Handy to keep in the van as I don’t like having the triple extension ones on the roof rack unless I need to
They go to about 1st floor window height

I used to have some and demolished a shitty porch when they packed themselves away with me at the top of them.

Wouldn't recommend them, sectional ladders are far better. I had a telescopic set, any minor damage and then they won't close/open.

Terrifying things, tried them once but I'd rather stand on a stack of wet newspapers before I'd use them again! Some people love them though but as mention above once they're damaged or get grit and other detritus in between the sections they're all but scrap. I also felt like I needed three hands at times to put them up and down.

I have a set of sectional ones like @Hoarder now.

we have a set of these . . . amongst others.

well built, sturdy and the feet extenders add extra stability.
