Quality ladder suitable as part of firefighting equipment, directly from the manufacturer and leader in firefighting ladders - JUST Leitern AG. The company has been on the market for more than 130 years. It manufactures these special ladders in accordance with the European standard, but also meets other standards (German or British). A manufacturer and supplier that constantly promotes new product developments in order to optimize them for all kinds of rescue actions and operations.
All this is embodied in this extendable support ladder with a lightweight construction. It will not get lost in the work of professionals. The solid construction and excellent stability ensure comfortable and safe access to elevated areas. It is the perfect companion for rescue or firefighting work. Maximum safe load, to comply with standards, is possible with up to 3 persons.
The ladder is manufactured and certified to meet European and Austrian standards and the standard ČSN EN 1147 with the extension of ČSN EN 4047.
European standard EN 1147 specifies requirements, test methods and design criteria for portable ladders for use by fire and rescue units and for similar purposes. The tests specified in this European Standard are type tests, not periodic tests. Non-portable ladders for use by fire and rescue services are not covered by this standard.
European Standard CSN-F4047 specifies the requirements, test methods and criteria for testing self-locking nuts, MJ threaded, of refractory nickel alloy NI-PH2601 (Inconel 718), silver plated - Grade: 1550 MPa (at ambient temperature) / 600 °C - Technical specification (Standard for direct use as a CSN).

The extension ladder is unique in its extension design with its exceptional ability to almost double its height. You can adjust this particular model thanks to the rope control. This makes height adjustment automated and very simple. The extension via a pulley with plastic bearings, reduces friction to a minimum. Therefore, only less pulling force can be exerted when pulling out and handling and movement of parts is easier. This new guide and ladder control is so innovative that guide brackets are no longer required. The rope control is, of course, combined with a new rope stop that instantly stops the descending part of the ladder. This ensures comfortable lowering of the ladder and a more secure anchoring of the individual parts. It can be easily folded, which makes it easier to carry, transport and store.
One of the most interesting advantages are the practical spikes welded to the foot of the auxiliary stabilising bars. Together with the base, topped with an extended stabilisation bar with fixing screws, they allow firm anchoring in any terrain, thus ensuring better stability and safer use.
Probably the biggest advantage is definitely the movable castors that are installed as part of the ladder's construction. They are used for easy and comfortable movement of the upper part of the ladder along the wall when extending and extending the ladder.

The quality of the material and workmanship of the ladder will exceed your expectations. The entire ladder is made of high quality alloy aluminium (aluminium alloy to achieve the required mechanical properties). The reinforced, 34 mm diameter, treaded fire rungs have an anti-slip finish for even greater safety, stability and comfortable climbing or to facilitate any standing on the ladder when working at any height. They are milled and permanently welded with CMT technology into the uprights, ensuring a completely safe ascent. Not a single detail or defect must be overlooked in the manufacture of the ladder.
The rungs are welded to the beams using CMT technology - a cold welding process to achieve the highest possible quality. Compared to conventional welding, CMT works with very little heat input and an extremely stable arc.

By using high quality alloy aluminium material and careful processing/welding of the complete ladder structure, considerable resistance to weather conditions has been achieved. Due to the material properties, the ladder cannot rust even if it is left standing in direct rain or exposed to other water elements for long periods of time. There is thus no risk of damage or wear and tear.
