How Do I Use a Loft Ladder Safely?
All types of ladders can be potentially dangerous if not used with caution. Here are some tips on how you can stay safe when using a loft ladder:
- Read the manual before use. Check that the loft ladder was installed correctly, and that you’re using the ladder for its intended purpose by the manufacturer.
- Maintain three points of contact at all time. At any given time, ensure that three parts of your body are firmly planted on the ladder. This will help you maintain your balance and, in the unfortunate event of a slip, you will have a better opportunity to catch yourself.
- Ask for help if you need it. With a loft ladder, it’s highly possible that you’ll be moving items up and down the stairs fairly regulalry. When using any ladder, it’s important to maintain three points of contact at all time, which can be difficult to do when carrying a load. If you think there’s a chance that transporting a load might put your wellbeing in jeopardy it’s always best to ask for help, even if it means waiting for help to become available.
