Ladders & Scaffolding

Angled ladders (safer than vertical) with 3–4-inch-wide rungs and non-slip treads.

Yes! Lean a wooden ladder against the wall and add planks as shelves, or hang horizontally with ropes.

Use a tool belt, rope/pulley system, or a ladder caddy. Never hold tools while climbing—keep 3 points of contact.

Use the 4:1 rule: For every 4 feet of height, move the base 1 foot away from the wall. Secure both top and bottom to prevent slipping.
