The extendable ladder with hooked top section designed to sit securely on a pitched roof ridge or eaves provides a reliable solution for accessing pitched roof surfaces for tile replacement, chimney work, solar panel installation, roof inspections. Each unit features aluminium ladder with steel or aluminium hook assembly and wheels for positioning designed for long-term reliability in British conditions, making this hire ideal for both commercial and residential applications throughout the United Kingdom.

Construction and Design

• Ridge hook at the head engages the roof apex or sits over the eaves on British tile and slate roofs
• Roller wheels at the head allow the ladder to be pushed up the roof slope without damaging tiles
• Single or extending sections available from 4.9m to 6.9m for typical UK roof pitches
• Rungs spaced for secure footing on the ladder while working on the roof plane
• Lightweight enough for one person to position from a standard extension ladder base
• Compatible with most concrete interlocking, clay plain and slate roof coverings common in Britain

Safety Standards

• Must be used with a separate ladder to reach the eaves—never climb directly from ground to roof
• Hook must be fully seated on the ridge before transferring weight onto the roof ladder
• Work on pitched roofs requires appropriate roof work training and fall protection per HSE guidance
• Inspect hook, wheels and rung fixings before each use on site
• Do not use on fragile roof surfaces, polycarbonate sheets or asbestos cement without specialist assessment
