Safety<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Safety is the most important consideration when researching the best ladder for interior painting in your home.  Statistics show that every 2 days in America, there are over 180 injuries and 1 death from ladder falls.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re not familiar with ladders, it\u2019s imperative that you research what you\u2019ll need.  You\u2019ll need to determine the correct type of ladder and the right length.  You\u2019ll also need to check for the appropriate duty rating and the material the ladder is made from.  The material of some ladders provide safety when working with or near electrical current.  Some ladders are lighter weight than others, and all have a specified weight capacity or duty rating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Common Ladders & Uses<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The most common types of ladders include step, and extension ladders.  Within these 2 categories, there are even more selections. The type <\/strong>of ladder should be considered when determining the best ladder for interior painting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are tripod step ladders<\/a> that are good on uneven surfaces and in corners.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Twin sided<\/a> and A-Frame step ladders<\/a> come in aluminum or fiberglass and are the strongest available.  Some can hold up to 375 pounds per side!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A platform step ladder<\/a> is exactly what it sounds like.  It has a large platform area at the top of the ladder which provides a comfortable and stable work area. The platform step ladder is a good option for painting a high ceiling. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Extension ladders<\/a> can be purchased in a number of different heights and materials.  Typically, in a 2-story home a 24-foot aluminum extension ladder works well.  The aluminum is much lighter than a fiberglass ladder therefore making it easier to maneuver on the interior of a home. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Multi-Use Ladders<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Another handy type ladder is the multi-use extension ladder like the Little Giant Dark Horse Multi-Use ladder<\/a>.  Multi-use ladders can be a strong contender when considering the best ladder for interior painting. These types of ladders can convert between extension, A-frame, staircase, and trestle-and-plank positions for a multitude of tasks.  A multi-use ladder may be the winner for most homeowners needing to paint a number of different areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your best bet for selecting the best ladder for interior painting is to talk to a representative from\u00a0 a store that specializes in ladders. It’s also important to do some in-depth, online research.\u00a0 The time you take finding the correct ladder for interior painting in your home is definitely worth the time and effort.\u00a0 It could mean life or death!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
