What Is a Ladder?

A ladder is a portable structure consisting of two side rails connected by evenly spaced steps or rungs, designed to provide temporary vertical access to elevated surfaces.

In simple terms, a ladder allows safe upward and downward movement where stairs are not available.

Common ladder uses in Ghana include:

• Ceiling installations
• Electrical wiring
• Painting and plastering
• Warehouse stocking
• Cleaning and maintenance

Understanding what a ladder is helps buyers choose the correct aluminium ladder types for their application.

What Is an Aluminium Ladder?

An aluminium ladder is a ladder made primarily from aluminium alloy, engineered to offer:

• High strength-to-weight ratio
• Corrosion resistance
• Long lifespan
• Easy portability
• Low maintenance requirements

Unlike wooden ladders that may crack or absorb moisture, or steel ladders that can rust in coastal regions like Tema and Takoradi, aluminium ladders are ideal for Ghana’s humid and tropical climate.

Aluminium Ladder Types Explained

When selecting a ladder in Ghana, understanding aluminium ladder types is critical.

2. Straight Ladder

A straight ladder leans against a vertical surface.

Best for:

A scaffold configuration creates a stable working platform.
