Interior Ladders Collection
Explore our complete range of premium library ladders, designed to elevate interiors with both function and style. Whether you're fitting a bespoke rolling ladder system in a kitchen, dressing room, or home library, our collection allows you to easily filter by metal finishes, timber types, ladder height, and system style. Every component is crafted for seamless integration and customisation, ideal for designers, joiners, and homeowners seeking a refined, space-saving solution.
1. Choose your hardware type
There are two different options to choose from in the brass finish Full rolling or Hook rolling. Whether you choose top rollers or hook rollers, we recommend you pair the rollers with bottom wheels for an effortless glide without lifting the ladder.
2. Work out what you need
The most important thing to determine is the ladder height and the height at which you want to mount a rail onto your bookcase or cabinetry. Choose from a range of standard height ladders which have a predetermined height rail or opt for a custom height ladder.

*Don’t forget to add your ladder tread support rungs. These are metal rods that sit underneath each ladder tread giving your ladder strength and support.
3. Decide how long you want your rails
This is the side to side width that you want your ladder to roll or slide along. Only 3ft rails are available in the brass finish. The rails can be joined together using a joining kit to create longer rails, or cut them down on-site to the perfect size
4. Add your brackets and end caps
Once you have decided how many rails you want you will need to work out how many brackets you need to hold up your rail. There should be a gap between brackets of no more then 3ft (914mm). Finish off your rail exposed ends with an end cap kit.
5. Optional Accessories
Choose from some optional extras that will take your ladder to the next level. Add a wooden hand rail (available in oak) on both sides of your ladder or some grip treads to make your ladder steps non-slip.
The Ladders
Our premium library ladders are expertly crafted from sturdy 19mm solid timber, showcasing exquisite detailing throughout. From chamfered corners and rounded edges to a finely crafted wood-turned grab rung at the top, every detail is meticulously designed.
Choose from our selection of standard height ladders for a cost-effective option. If the standard sizes don't suit your needs, we offer a made-to-measure service. For custom orders, simply specify the height at which you want to mount the rail, measured from the floor to the center of the rail that your ladder will slide along.

The hook rolling hardware still has all the rolling hardware attributes but has the added benefit of allowing you to lift the ladder from the rail and relocate the ladder to another rail. This means you could use the ladder in multiple locations. The top rollers are paired with the braking wheeled feet. This hardware has an inbuilt mechanism to allow the ladder to be stowed vertically. Read more. |
The sliding hook hardware allows you to hook your ladder on and off from the rail. This hardware has two hooks on the top of the ladder and is paired with the non-slip rubberised feet at the bottom of the ladder. To move the ladder along the rail you need to lift the weight of the ladder up without unhooking and you can walk the ladder along. This hardware has an inbuilt slider to allow the ladder to be stowed vertically. Read more. |
This is the most basic option for hardware and is has a 'double hook' at the top of the ladder and non-slip feet at the bottom. This allows you to hook the ladder on using the top hook and then lift and use the lower hook to stow the ladder away vertically. To move the ladder along the rail you will need to completely lift the ladder off of the rail and hook the ladder back on in the location you want to use it. Note: For safety, this hook is a tight fit on the rail, therefore you need to be careful hooking the ladder on and off the rail, to ensure the rail remains damage free. If you have concerns, opt for a 'sliding hook hardware' instead. |
If you are looking for the ultimate in premium design them look no further than the 'swivel rolling' hardware. This hardware allows you to lift and roll your ladder around a 90degree curved corner rail. This means you can have a continuous rail around your room. Read more. |
The ladder rails or poles are an essential component in the ladder kit and your ladder will roll along them. They are made of high-quality 25mm solid aluminum, ensuring durability, as they are not hollow.
These rails are available in 6ft (1828mm) and 8ft (2438mm) lengths, which can be connected using a joining kit to create longer rail runs. Alternatively, you can customise the size after you receive your order by cutting them on-site. Rail brackets support the rails, and each end should be finished with a rail end cap.
To simplify the ordering process, use the Build your Ladder Order builder. It helps you select the right rail length and automatically adds the necessary rails, joining kits, rail brackets, and rail end caps for each rail run. If you are looking for brass hardware - shop here.
Cutting the rails:
If you need to cut your brass rail during your installation process, we recommend that you wrap the rail with painters’ tape where the cut is to be made, this will minimise the chipping of the paint/plating. Use a fresh-bladed hack saw with a metal cutting blade, and a good quality mitre box. Alternatively, you could use a standard mitre saw with a carbide blade, or a wood cutting blade, again ensuring you use a fresh blade. After cutting, slowly and carefully unwrap the tape.
Important Note: It's important to note that the aluminum rails have a sprayed paint finish (unless plated brass), which may show manufacturing marks caused by hooks used during the spraying process. Once installed, these marks will be hidden from view.
