Werner Ladder testing

Ladder standards in the United Kingdom have settled on a single British and European standard that applies to all types of portable ladders. Where appropriate, our Werner ladders must fulfil the new EN131 standard, with a weight capability of 150kg. The European Commission was displeased with elements of the previous standard and issued an EC mandate for the standard to incorporate additional standards for stability, slide, durability, and strength, which will aid in reducing the primary causes of ladder-related accidents.

Why should I buy a Werner Ladder?
From engineering to manufacture, our complete product design process produces a climbing system that promotes user productivity, durability, and safety. Werner is favoured over all other brands on construction sites across the world due to how every product incorporates innovation, safety, and durability. Ultimately, focusing on end users' needs is what drives Werner’s success.
What is the difference between a fibreglass and an aluminium ladder?
It is recommended and, in most cases, mandatory to use fibreglass instead of aluminium. This is because fibreglass provides more insulation between the user and the earth, reducing (but not eliminating), the risk of electrocution.

Typically, the maximum safe working height is 1.5 metres higher than the maximum permissible climb height.

How do I transport my ladder safely?
When moving a ladder in a vehicle, be sure to keep the following in mind: • To avoid drooping, the ladder is supported over its whole length. • The overhang beyond the supports is equal to or less than 1/3 of the ladder's length. • To avoid road stress and chaffing, the ladder is firmly secured down. Overtightening the ladder might cause it to break. • To reduce road shock, the upper surface of the roof racks or supports should be coated with soft material such as rubber or wood.
How do I repair my damaged ladder?
WernerCo does not advocate fixing a damaged ladder for the user's safety, and the business does not provide a repair service.

1. What should I do before I use my ladder?

  • Look for any damage or missing parts.
  • Examine the ladder's feet for signs of severe wear.
  • Look for any missing or loose bolts or rivets.
  • Make sure the ropes aren't frayed and are firmly fastened.
  • Make that the ladder stiles, rungs, and treads are all straight.
  • Make that the spreaders are in good working order.
  • Check for dust, dampness, oil, and corrosion on the ladder.
  • Check for cracks, rot, and insect infestation on the timber ladder.
  • Before using a ladder, clean it with mild soapy water and let it dry.
  • If a ladder has any flaws, it should be taken out of use and replaced right away.
  • Ladders should be kept dry and protected.
  • A wooden ladder should never be painted. So that flaws aren't masked, apply a transparent varnish suited for outdoor or maritime conditions.
