2-Year Warranty
My ceilings are 2.8 m and I reach everything without stretching. Very steady, no play, and folded down it fits in the boot of a small hatchback.
Self-employed electrician, I keep it in the van. The black latches lock firmly and you can check they're engaged at a glance. You feel safe.
Ordered on a Tuesday, here by Friday. Much more rigid than a B&Q ladder, the aluminium is dense. The anti-pinch system is a real plus.
For the windows and the Velux. The non-slip feet hold well, it doesn't shift. Folds away in 30 seconds and weighs next to nothing.

THE KIT USED BY MAJOR CONTRACTORS, WITHIN REACH OF EVERY TRADESPERSON
Balfour Beatty and Kier enforce the most demanding safety standards in the industry. ReachMaster brings that same standard of strength and compliance straight into your van.
Looking at the image, two key details immediately stand out: the heavy-duty black rubber sleeves wrapping each section and the vibrant yellow locking buttons aligned along the stiles. The rest of the body is crafted from premium brushed silver aluminum, free of visible welds or bulky reinforcements. This 2.6m telescopic ladder features eight rungs spaced precisely 30cm apart on a perfectly rigid structure. When fully retracted, it stands at a mere 72cm high; once extended, it rises into a seamless 2.60m single-piece climbing solution.
The sections glide smoothly into one another, with a heavy-duty black and yellow latch snapping into place with a clear, audible click at every level. Each rung is secured by two independent locks—one on the left, one on the right—ensuring unambiguous safety when fully open. The built-in rubber sleeves absorb impacts and prevent metal-on-metal slamming during retraction. The entire mechanism can be effortlessly operated with one hand, requiring no tools or strenuous effort.
Positioned against a wall at the recommended 75° angle, the ladder remains rock-solid under a maximum load capacity tested up to 150kg, while its non-slip feet bite securely into everything from indoor tiles to backyard patio slabs. Once retracted, it easily slips into a car boot, behind a door, or into a hallway cupboard. It is the ultimate go-to tool for changing light bulbs, painting door frames, or trimming low branches, before being stored away without a second thought.
The key metric is never the actual length of the ladder, but the real working height you need to reach, keeping in mind that you should never stand on the top two rungs. For standard domestic ceilings around 2.5m, this 2.6m format is more than enough. If you need to access the roof of a single-story house, we recommend looking at a 4.4m telescopic ladder, or even a 5m option. The maximum extensions, up to 6.2m, are engineered for facade work, tree pruning, or gutter inspections. To explore our complete range, browse our full selection of telescopic ladders.
The click-lock mechanism is completely intuitive: the locking system provides both visual and audible confirmation, allowing you to double-check every single rung at a glance before climbing. Full EN131 certification guarantees complete compliance with rigorous British and European safety standards. The aircraft-grade aluminum alloy frame is completely rustproof, weather-resistant, and handles temperature shifts without warping, while the four rubber safety feet lock the base firmly to the ground. For enhanced safety and long-term maintenance, upgrade your setup with our dedicated telescopic ladder accessories (including stabilizers and replacement non-slip rubber feet).
Weighing just 6.8kg and collapsing down to a tiny 72cm, this is the most agile and portable model in our entire lineup. Stored upright, it takes up a mere 49cm in width and travels in the boot of a standard hatchback with zero disassembly required. While a traditional straight ladder demands permanent garage wall space, this model delivers the exact same working height within a third of the physical volume. Whether you are a trade professional hopping between quick jobs or a homeowner tight on space, the benefits are clear on every project: eight heavy-duty rungs, dual safety locks per section, four non-marking rubber feet, and absolutely no storage headaches.

At ReachMaster, we have one specialty: the telescopic ladder. Not ten ranges, no compromise — expertise mastered from end to end.
Our brand was born on the job site, not in an office. After seeing ladders seize up mid-day and waste valuable time for tradespeople, we decided to put an end to the old trade-off: sturdy but bulky, or handy but flimsy.

Everything a professional needs to know before ordering.
Arrived well packaged, genuinely tough. The aluminium doesn't flex an inch, even right at the top. No play in the rungs after weeks of daily use.
Folded down it takes up no space, I slide it behind the seats. Extended, it's rock-solid. The anti-pinch system is a real plus.
Delivery took 2-3 days longer than expected, but the quality really is there. Ultra-sturdy ladder, spotless finish. I'd recommend it despite the slight wait.
15 years in the trade, I know quality when I see it. Crisp, positive rung-by-rung locking, feet that grip well. You feel safe on it.
Smooth to extend, intuitive straight away. You can feel the weight of the aluminium when you lift it, a sign of strength. Very happy with my purchase.
Careful packaging, arrived without a scratch. Straight out of the box, flawless. I use it to reach the roof with no stress at all.
Light to carry but tough once extended. The only downside, a few extra days' wait. But the quality more than makes up for it, no regrets.
Exactly what I was after: compact to store, sturdy in use. Doesn't slip, doesn't move. A real plus for my work at height.
No comparison with the high-street ladder I had before. The rungs are wide, you're perfectly stable. I'd recommend it 100%.
No play, no noise, faultless extension. Kit designed for professionals. Several months of daily use and still no wear.
I'm giving 3 stars mainly for the delivery, which dragged on for a week. Otherwise the ladder is excellent, nothing to say on quality, it's top-notch.
