A telescoping ladder is great for anybody hoping to reach new heights.
You may need to paint a house, repair the roof or the chimneystack.
No problem with such innovative tools.
Regular step ladders have their uses, but do not usually go as high and you cannot very well lean them against structures.
A telescoping feature is handy because you do not have to transport the ladder while it is fully extended, which may be impossible.
This also allows the ladder to be adjusted to different heights.
There are some safety concerns for getting higher off the ground and using a telescoping ladder.
Most of these have good feet that pivot to fit firmly on most any surface and they have a lot of friction on the bottom to prevent sliding.
This friction is usually made of lots of little strong ridges.
If these become worn smooth, they may become slippery.
Concrete makes for a more level surface, but could allow ladder feet that lack friction to slide away from what they are leaning upon.
You do not want to be on a ladder when that happens, so one needs to monitor the most important part of the telescopic ladder, which is the bottom part.
