The technology that makes them work is the locking mechanism that is strong enough to support weight at many different angles. In many instances this superb versatility offered by the folding ladder means they are able to replace a number of ladders around the home or in the tradesman’s van. The exact number of combinations that aluminium folding ladders can be formed into depends on the exact ladder you buy.
