Aluminum stepladders and attached ladders have become part of our everyday life - no construction, no repairs can do without them. Their advantages are well known: light weight, excellent strength, fire safety, corrosion resistance, durability and, of course, mobility. Therefore, today we would like to consider the latest model - these are universal 4x6 transformer ladders.
Wonders of modern technology or a ladder for all occasions
To date, the 4x6 transformer aluminum ladder is the most multifunctional structure that can transform into a scaffold, a step-ladder and a regular side ladder.
Its possibilities are almost endless:
- with this model you can hang the shelf;
- wipe the chandelier;
- build a stretch ceiling with your own hands;
- decorate the facade of the house;
- collect apples from trees and much, much more.
For information! For more convenient use of this miracle of invention, manufacturers of aluminum and stainless steel stairs have also provided additional accessories that allow you to place all kinds of tools right on the stairs, at a height.
Main characteristics
- staircase-transformer 4х4 consists of 4 sections, each of which has 4-6 steps;
- the length of the product in a fully unfolded form is 6.9 meters;
- folded length only 1.8 meters;
- the weight of the ladder is 16.2 kilograms;
- the maximum permissible load on the structure is 150 kilograms.
The device is a mutable "assistant"
It should be noted that the model has excellent strength and stability, and therefore you can not worry about the safety of being at height.
This is due to the following design features of the transforming staircase:
- at the ends of the guides there are special support-plugs, thanks to which the product stands firmly even on a slippery floor covering;
- the steps are made with a corrugated surface, which excludes slipping;
- the most reliable way of fastening the steps is flaring into racks (i.e. rectangular crossbars go through the guide profiles, and their edges are bent from the outside);
- the protruding parts of the profile are closed with plastic plugs, so it is impossible to catch or get hurt here.
The 4 by 6 transformer ladder consists of four sections, connected to each other by means of a hinge. Each segment has six steps, and the distance between them is 25 centimeters.
Modifications to the structure are carried out in the course of alternately unfolding each section and securing in the desired position using reliable fixing elements. Expanding traverses are located on the two outer parts, making the ladder even more stable and reliable on any surfaces.
The model is made of anodized aluminum with a protective film. Therefore, even if you accidentally forget to remove it from the yard, and it starts to rain on the street, then nothing terrible will happen - it does not threaten corrosion.
Note! A 6-meter foldable aluminum ladder is comfortable not only in operation, but also in storage. It is very compact when folded, which allows you to keep it on the balcony, under the bed, in a small closet and even transport it in the trunk of a car.
Modifications to the staircase
The universal ladder transformer tf 4x6 can take four configurations, which we will now consider:
- L-shaped. It folds in the middle (as in the picture below), does not need additional support, since it is very stable in itself.Steps located on both sides allow you to climb from the side that is most convenient for you. The height of the ladder in this form is 3.4 meters - this is enough for any repair and finishing work.
- U-shaped or scaffolding. Here, the two outer segments of the ladder function as support legs, and the two inner ones serve as a working platform. This transformation is ideal for long-term work at low heights (facade finishing, plastering, painting, etc.).
Attention! Especially for this layout of the ladder, manufacturers offer a platform (bought, as a rule, separately), on which you can put a container with a solution, and also move along it yourself, without fear of falling between the steps.
- The usual ladder. That is, when all sections are spread out to their full length. It is in this position that you can see the total height of the equipment (6.9 meters). The instruction prescribes leaning the upper part of the structure on a vertical surface, and placing the lower one on a flat base.
- L-shaped or attached ladder with a console. In this modification, the top segment bends at right angles. Thus, maximum stability is achieved, since the ladder is reliably leaning against the support.
Model advantages
You don't need to be a professional to identify the positive aspects of this transforming structure:
- All parts of the product, both folded and unfolded, have the correct geometric shape. The existing connections and clamps are mobile, so there will be no difficulties with modifications.
- The presence of plugs, traverses, as well as the corrugated surface of the steps make the operation of the stairs absolutely safe on any surface, at any height. Such equipment will never let you down! Which, by the way, cannot be said about the dubious designs of chairs and other furniture.
Output
The multifunctional ladder model will become an indispensable assistant in solving any construction and household tasks: both on a large construction site, and on a garden plot, and in a private house! With it, installation, plastering, painting and other works become much easier and more comfortable (learn also about the features of the Prestige L 01 stairs).
