Little Giant Defender Firefighting Ladder
The perfect ladder for firefighters - the Little Giant Defender is compact, lightweight and capable of fitting in most fire engine storage spaces. Made with Rock Lock rung fasteners, this ladder is easy to use and adjust while wearing heavy firefighter gloves. Made with reflective labels, this element increases the ladder's visibility. This ladder also features heat sensor labels that indicate when the ladder has been exposed to too much heat and should be taken out of service.
This lightweight aluminum ladder is an articulating, multi-position ladder. The Defender can convert to stepladder, extension, staircase, 90° and trestle-and-plank scaffolding. With its wide-flared legs and Ratchet levelers, you increase your side-tip stability and safety when working on uneven surfaces.
