What is a Telescopic Ladder?

A telescopic ladder is built in the same way as a telescope, with the outer sections that are designed to slide into itself and make the ladder smaller and easier to carry and store. The telescopic sleeves have a complex locking system built in to ensure that the ladder remains upright as you climb. The main overall advantage of buying a telescopic ladder over a traditional extension ladder is the fact that you can store it more or less anywhere. If you’ve only got cupboard space, then that is enough for a telescopic ladder. Plus you can carry it around the house without worrying about hitting walls or light fittings, or it fits in you car taking away the need for a roof rack. Lots of benefits to using a telescopic ladder.
