That's the brand I have as well and my step ladder is rated for 300 as well as the extension. ----- Original Message ----- From: Steve Crews To: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com Sent: Thursday, May 15, 2008 11:10 PM Subject: RE: [BlindHandyMan] buying extension ladder
Kevin, I have several ladders, three different sizes of step ladders, all of which are fiberglass. A 24 and a 36 foot which are aluminum. I have had them all for several years. They are WERNER brand. I wouldn't buy any other brand. A 24 foot extension should take care of most home owner tasks. Basically a 24 footer is made of two 12 foot sections. And I wouldn't extend it over about 20 foot. Also, I wouldn't buy any thing less than a 300 pound rating.

Don't ask! I might want an extension latter. Don't know what is the safest option. I know if I get an extension latter I want one which has stand-offs so I don't crush my gutters. I was doing research on line and am now confused. Some makes and models have bad reviews. Can you all direct me to a good safe way of getting up to clean gutters and attach an antenna? I am open to sugestions. Thanks. Kevin Doucet [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:contactme%40kevindoucet.com> et.com confuse as says Blind man with unmarked forehead has large belly!
