We offer custom height ladders ranging from 3ft to 14ft, this is referring to the side length of the ladder.
The Rails
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.
Hardware Colours
The corner rolling ladder hardware and ironmongery is only available in a matt black colour.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the rolling ladder easy to use?
With the rolling hook hardware type it means that the ladder will have rollers at the top of the ladder and wheels at the bottom. This makes sure that the ladder is extremely easy to use. To roll the ladder along the rail you simply just need to push the ladder along and it will roll effortlessly. You will even be able to roll it with just one finger! When you want to roll the ladder around the corner, lift the weight of the ladder up off the floor and walk the ladder around the curve.
Is there a brake on the wheel?
The wheels are the bottom of the rolling ladder roll smoothly and easily when the ladder is not being mounted. When you want to climb the ladder, simply stand onto the steps and a brake will automatically be applied to the bottom wheels.
*Please note that children may be too lightweight to trigger the brake.
Does the ladder stow away vertically?
You will be able to stow or dock your ladder vertically when not in use by lifting the ladder and stepping towards the wall / cabinetry. The ladder will slide upwards slightly allowing you to tuck the ladder into an upright vertical position. You will still be able to roll your ladder from side to side along the rail in this upright position.
How does the ladder arrive?
The ladders all arrive unassembled and unfinished. You can stain or paint the ladder your desired colour or finish and then you will need a handy person or carpenter to fit your ladder and rails together.
