A step ladder is a portable ladder made with fewer and wider steps than a standard ladder. It has two sets of supports held together at the top by collapsible hinges. Usually made with a durable aluminum frame, it comes in standard, foldable, and rolling models. It is commonly used at home for reaching into tall kitchen cabinets, sweeping cobwebs off ceilings, and mounting frames and decorative items on high walls.
Steps: Choose a step ladder with rubber steps to prevent you from slipping and injuring yourself. Make sure the rubber pads are grooved or indented for traction. For maximum support, choose a step ladder with steps at least eight inches wide. Weight capacity: Choose a step ladder that can support 300 pounds or more.
