3. BIGBEN Ladder Guard – Tuffsteel / Metal Ladders c/w Chain & Padlock
A scaffold or construction site can seem like a magical playground to children who don't see the dangers—unfortunately, some adults get a bit too enchanted as well! That’s why it’s crucial to secure your site, and belongings and lock down equipment to keep unauthorised visitors at bay.
That’s why we’ve rolled out the BIGBEN Ladder Guard, a game-changing solution designed to keep unauthorised users off ladders by making them unclimbable. It’s your secret weapon against falls from heights and unauthorised access.
When choosing a Ladderguard, it’s essential to ensure it meets key safety criteria, including:
- Secure Locking: It must be firmly padlocked in place to prevent tampering.
- Rung Coverage: Each rung should be rendered unusable, with no more than 50mm of rung exposed when the guard is pushed as far to the side as possible.
- Rung Coverage Area: It should cover a minimum of 6 rungs to ensure comprehensive protection.
These standards are vital for keeping your ladders safe and secure. It’s worth noting that our BIGBEN Ladder Guard measures 1860mm long by 3150mm wide, is HSE compliant, and comes with a chain and padlock to help you meet essential safety requirements with ease.
