How to Select the Right Ladder for Your Home

Choosing the correct ladder keeps your home tasks safe, stable and easy. Follow these simple steps to find the perfect household ladder for your height, task and weight needs.

Step 1 — Identify Your Home Task

  • DIY projects

  • Ceiling fan cleaning

  • Changing curtains

  • Painting and decorating

  • Changing light bulbs

  • Window cleaning

  • Roofing or gutter access

  • Event & festive decorations

Tip: If you often move room-to-room for different chores, a step ladder or multipurpose ladder is usually more practical

Step 2 — Choose the Right Working Height

Once you know your task, the next question is height. You don’t need the tallest ladder — you need the right ladder that lets you work comfortably without overreaching.

Most adults (around 5’6”) gain roughly 3 ft of extra reach when standing on a ladder.

Step 3 – Select Your Working Load

Now that you know the task and height, check the working load. This includes your body weight plus the weight of tools, paint cans, or items you carry.

Light Duty Series

Ideal for light household chores and occasional use.

Heavy Duty Series

Better for frequent use, heavier users, or when you often carry tools, paint, or cleaning equipment.

If you’re not sure, choose the 150 KG heavy duty ladder — it’s safer and more stable for most homes

Step 4 – Get The Right Ladder Material

With height and load decided, pick the material that suits your home environment and the kind of work you do.

  • Best for light household jobs & everyday tasks such as cleaning fans, painting, or hanging curtains.

  • DIY projects like fixing shelves, small repair or simple carpentry work

  • Professional non-electrical work like renovation, aircond installation, event setup, warehouse picking

  • Not suitable for use near electricity.

  • Electrical tasks (wiring, lighting installation, maintenance)

  • Data centers, facilities, factories, workshops

  • Professional jobs requiring higher durability or longer working periods

  • Suitable for work near electrical areas
