The Henchman PRO Tripod Ladder vs the Fully Adjustable Ladder

The PRO brings together all of the quality features of the Fully Adjustable, but with additional durability for more frequent use, adjustability and unique features. This makes it the leading tripod ladder on the market, the PRO features include:

Second platform rung offering more height variation for different jobs
20% more adjustability in the legs than the Fully Adjustable model to tackle more extreme terrain
Back leg clip to secure the leg before transport

If you’re working on gentle slopes and steps, try our 1-Leg Adjustable Tripod Ladder instead. Or, you can use our Find a Ladder tool to make sure you pick a tripod that’s best suited to your needs.

Features of the Fully Adjustable PRO Ladder

At Henchman, we’re all about providing professional standards for all. Our PRO tripod takes all the benefits of our original Professional model and adds so much more, so you can feel safe when working on any task, no matter your skill level.

Maximum adjustability for all environments

Our PRO tripod ladder makes it easier than ever to complete garden and DIY tasks, regardless of the environment. Each leg is independently adjustable to accommodate sloping surfaces, soft ground and steps. This makes jobs in tricky terrains easy to complete while minimising the risk of injury.

In fact, the PRO range offers 20% more adjustability than our Fully Adjustable Tripod, at least 20% more than competitor ladders and up to double the adjustability of our best-selling 8ft model, so you can rest assured you’ve got the most suitable solution to work safely on your uneven ground.

The new hedge-proof locking pin also allows for that extra layer of security, keeping the legs firmly in place.

Dual platform to provide support at multiple heights

The new PRO ladder range offers a second platform rung in addition to the built-in platform you’ll find with all Henchman models. This means that you’re supported when working at the top of the ladder and lower down. Whether you need to handle a variety of jobs at different heights, or you just want to rest your chest against the guardrail to feel more stable, the new PRO tripod will keep you safe and comfortable no matter what level you’re working at.

Extra wide feet for wobble-free working

The last thing you want to worry about when working at height is wobbling. That’s why every Henchman tripod features extra wide feet with a large surface area. The larger surface area prevents sinking, and its clawed design minimises slippage.

If you’re using your ladder indoors or on hard surfaces, simply fit the rubber overshoes that are supplied free of charge with your order.

Increased strength for ladders that last

Our tripod ladders are already strong and lightweight, but the PRO range is engineered with a thicker gauge of aluminium in key contact areas. This increases durability, reduces the risk of wear and tear and ensures frame rigidity.

The only BS EN131 tripod ladder certified in the UK

We’re proud to say that our tripod ladders are the only tripods on the market to hold an EN131 certification - strict standards set by industry experts across the UK and EU that deem ladders to be safe.

This certification requires annual testing by an independent testing house for the ladder's stability, grip, dimensions, safety labelling and the safe working load of 150kg.

PRO adjustable ladder

The legs of our PRO ladder provide more adjustability than any other ladder on the market, with smaller adjustment intervals so that you’re always at the right level.

Hedge-proof locking mechanism

Designed to ensure the legs of your EN131 platform ladder are locked securely in place, even when working amongst hedging, trees, or shrubbery.

Dual platform with our PRO ladder

Our PRO tripod ladder comes with a second platform designed to keep you feeling secure when working lower down the ladder, adding another layer of stability.

Our EN131 Professional Ladder - what does it mean?

Our EN131 platform ladder keeps you safe when working at all height levels - but what does the BS EN131 kitemark mean?

What’s involved in kitemark certification?

We have chosen to Kitemark our professional ladders as the Kitemark certification goes above and beyond product testing. It looks at all aspects of the supply chain too, so rest assured that the ladders you receive are properly designed for the job you're performing. When you purchase from Henchman, you’re purchasing ladders that are:

Safety tested to the highest standards
Produced by approved and audited manufacturers
Treated with thorough quality control measures throughout the whole supply chain

BSI’s EN131 Kitemark Certification tests all of the below:

EN131

o Part 1 - terms, types, functional sizes – this section inspects the key dimensional requirements of the ladder, such as base width and rung spacing, to ensure that they are both in accordance with the safety requirements and consistent across all production batches.

o Part 2 - requirements, testing, marking – this section inspects and tests the strength and stability of the ladder, ensuring that it’s suitable for the intended use.

o Part 3 - marking and user instructions – this section assesses the quality and completeness of the ladders labelling, markings and user instructions, to ensure that the user can easily understand how to safely operate their ladder.

Manufacturer audit

o The manufacturer(s) of the ladders are audited according to relevant ISO standards, to assess production methods and processes, quality control processes, and ensure a safe working environment for their employees.

Henchman audit

o This is the final step in the Kitemark process. It is designed to ensure adequate quality control procedures while also protecting you, the customer, by ensuring we have a reliable management structure and business continuity plans.

As you can see, the Kitemark certification process is very thorough and provides full reassurance in the quality of our business and products. If you would like any more information, or to discuss how these safety standards fit within your business, please do not hesitate to contact us. You can also find out more about our EN 131 multi-purpose ladders here.

Selecting the right size Henchman PRO Adjustable Ladder

Before ordering your ladder, be sure to measure the size of the job, and how much space you have, to ensure you order the correct size. Note that, when we refer to the size of the ladder, we are referring to the total length when fully retracted, from top to bottom - as an example, 10ft is the full height of the 10ft ladder. They do not collapse down in height.

We always recommend that you work between shoulder and waist height. On the Fully Adjustable Professional Tripod, the platform is 3ft/0.9cm from the top of the ladder, so your waist is in line with the top.

As an example, if the ladder is 6ft/1.8m, then your waist will be 6ft / 1.8m from the ground. Generally, your shoulders are approximately 2ft/60cm higher than your waist. This means that you’ll have a working height range of 6-8ft / 1.8-2.4m, shoulder to waist level.

So, if you need to reach 6-8ft / 1.8-2.4m, then a 6ft / 1.8m ladder is just what you need.

Our Professional Ladder sizes range from 6ft to 16ft.

What size do I need?

Heights are with extendable legs retracted, based on a 6ft / 1.8m person, and will vary depending on user and tools.

**Working Height**
(Based on the user being 6ft / 1.8m)
Ladder Size	Platform Height	Hip Level	Reaching Overhead	Ladder Weight
6ft / 1.8m	3ft / 0.9m	6ft / 1.8m	10ft / 3.0m	9kg
8ft / 2.4m	5ft / 1.5m	8ft / 2.4m	12ft / 3.6m	11kg
10ft / 3m	7ft / 2.1m	10ft / 3m	14ft / 4.2m	13kg
12ft / 3.6m	9ft / 2.7m	12ft / 3.6m	16ft / 4.8m	15kg
14ft / 4.2m	11ft / 3.3m	14ft / 4.2m	18ft / 5.4m	19kg
16ft / 4.8m	13ft / 3.9m	16ft / 4.8m	20ft / 6.0m	22kg

All sizes provided are with the extendable legs fully retracted.

To avoid ordering the wrong sized ladder, it’s important you know exactly how high you need to reach before you order.

For example, if you’re using your ladder to trim hedges, we suggest picking one that’s more or less the same height as that hedge. Measuring the hedge height before you order will ensure you choose the right size.
