advice on steps

[shanky887614]

ive got a job to go to on mon in car, any tripple steps (around 6tred size) that will fit inside a hatchback?

otherwise ill need to see what i can make do with or get a roofrack soon

im thinking of getting a set of these? what do you guys think

there 2m long (6 treds)

I've got a 4 tread and 8 tread, I think the top counts as one. The 8 tread is massive.

Try Clow Ladders

Superglas EN131 Glassfibre Steps

if you ring the Birmingham branch, the lady, can't think of her name but they will do you a much better price if you call them direct, quite a bit cheaper.

top quality steps!

They will fit into the boot of any car. Just be careful you have the hinge correctly clicked in place. I near wrecked myself one time when i didn't.

Wouldn't it be cheaper and easier to get roof bars rather than new steps?

Just get a mate with you and get him to do this lol.

evening Shanky, I've got both...the Youngman 100 good bit of kit for outside work, I'm 14 stone. Gets me up to 1st floor window. You might get it inside a Volvo etc at a push.The other one is awkward s*d and heavy but with a scaff board gives a longish platform to stand on.

Really? Why not? I work in a factory so am never on sites that much.

Is it because it is class ii or the actual design.

Down to construction company, they must take practical steps for safety. A few sites I been on will not allow scaffolds internally, an will insist on scissor platforms only.

still shock risk isnt it?

The scissor lift is isolated by the wheels, construction sites are getting H&S mad with steps etc. When you arrive on site, your own steps will be inspected, and issued with a inspection badge. This will need to be inspected every week and issued with new badge.
