Went for the black version for the pro look: lovely matt finish that doesn't show fingerprints. Dense aluminium, no play, you feel safe.
Noticeably sturdier than a B&Q ladder: clean locking, no sideways play at full extension, dense aluminium. The black coating is nicely applied.
I use it every day, the rungs grip even with wet boots, it doesn't slip. The anti-pinch system is welcome, you feel safe.
Arrived in 4 days. Lovely quality, looks dearer than it is. The black latches click firmly, no play, you feel safe.

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.
The sleek matte black finish absorbs light rather than reflecting it, giving this model a distinctly modern and professional look. The rungs are engineered flat and evenly spaced, featuring a deeply ribbed, non-slip surface for maximum boot traction. The black anodized aluminum stiles form an incredibly rigid frame, perfectly aligned for everyday heavy-duty use. This 3.2m black telescopic ladder extends to a full 3.20m when deployed and retracts down to just 85cm—making it the ideal size to slide into a standard car boot. Four heavy-duty rubber feet seal the base for uncompromising ground stability.
Each section smoothly glides into the next with a progressive closing mechanism, locking step by step: simply pull up until a crisp, sharp click sounds, and verify the visual lock indicators before moving to the next rung. Structural rigidity remains entirely solid even when used at intermediate heights. Built-in safety top hooks and non-slip bottom feet complete this high-performance package, which can be effortlessly operated with one hand, requiring zero tools.
Whether you are navigating a tight hallway, a utility room, a trade van, or accessing a low-level residential roof, this compact configuration goes where traditional fixed ladders are completely out of the question. Weighing only around 7kg depending on the exact spec, its lightweight frame and minimal folded length simplify both transport and storage without requiring any extra roof racks or mounting equipment.
Opting for the black edition is primarily an aesthetic and practical choice: the premium matte finish blends seamlessly into contemporary home interiors, professional workshops, and dark commercial spaces where bright silver aluminum would visually clash. Mechanically, performance remains elite: the black anodized aluminum alloy retains the exact same strength and high corrosion resistance as our classic silver line. If you prefer a traditional look, our standard 3.2m silver telescopic ladder delivers identical capabilities. The internal lock mechanism, maximum load capacity, and overall working height are rigorously the same across both finishes.
The 3.2m format easily covers the vast majority of routine property maintenance tasks: decorating, installing light fixtures, clearing gutters, or accessing low-lying roofs. Its extended length allows you to work comfortably alongside standard 2.5m ceilings, keeping in mind that you should never stand on the top two rungs for safety reasons. For higher projects—such as industrial suspended ceilings, full building facades, or tree pruning—we offer larger formats extending to 4.4m, 5m, and up to 6.2m. Remember that your choice should align with your actual safe working height while standing on the ladder, rather than your reach with arms extended. To compare all dimensions, browse our full collection of telescopic ladders.
On hard surfaces, the non-marking rubber feet absorb vibrations and prevent wall slippage; on loose or uneven ground, stability must be checked before every single climb, without exception. Because aluminum conducts electricity, always keep the ladder well clear of live power lines or uninsulated electrical wiring. Fully compliant with the EN131 safety standard governing portable ladders in the UK and Europe, it is crucial to visually inspect that every section is locked in place before stepping up, as a partial engagement means the rung is unsafe. Maintenance is virtually effortless: simply wipe down after outdoor use and regularly inspect the mechanism—no lubricants or greases required. To further secure your footing on slick surfaces or replace worn parts over time, explore our dedicated telescopic ladder accessories (including stabilizers and replacement non-slip feet).

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.
