Is a Youngman Step Ladder right for your company?

Youngman Step Ladder Blog Header

Woodland of Kingston is one of the customers  that have very kindly agreed to produce us with a case study on their recent purchase of a Youngman EN131 Professional Builders Stepladder - 6 Tread

Tell us a little bit about your company.

We are a small family run business working on high-end residential properties. We offer a range of products including but not limited to, sash windows, casement windows, French doors, folding and sliding doors and traditional front entrance doors. We pride ourselves on the quality of our internal and external finish. Being able to achieve such a high-quality finish requires access to areas which are usually difficult to reach. Having good quality access equipment is essential as working at height comes with its own set of difficulties so our guys have to feel confident and safe on the equipment their using.

What solution has the ladder solved?

We use the steps during installation of windows; they enable us to safely access areas indoors that would be difficult to reach otherwise. We use them whilst fitting architrave and windows trims, as well as detail work. The steps are also used outside to enable our window installation team to reach the tops of windows so they can easily cement up and paint the products we fit.

Would you recommend this product?

This is the first set of Youngman EN131 steps we’ve used and will be purchasing another set for our other fitting team when they need their current set replacing. We would highly recommend this product as it ticks all the boxes in terms of durability. The steps have a decent grip and the price is competitive compared to other similar brands.

How has your experience with Ladderstore been?

We have used Ladderstore for many years for all our ladders and steps, and we use the Ladderlog system to ensure we comply with Health and Safety requirements. The website is very easy to use and navigate, and there are a wide variety of ladders and steps available for all applications.

*At the time of this case study these ladders were branded Youngman, they have since merged and have been taken over by Werner.

Many Thanks  

We’d just like to give a big thank you to Woodland of Kingston for their case study. It is not often our customers take the time out to show us how they are using our products, and it’s much appreciated.
