A ladder or step stool is a portable device designed to help individuals safely reach higher areas that are otherwise out of reach. Often referred to as a step ladder or footstool, this accommodation supports people with limited mobility, balance challenges, or reduced reach. It provides stable, elevated platforms to access shelves, cabinets, or equipment, promoting independence and reducing the risk of falls. Commonly used in workplaces, homes, and public spaces, ladders and step stools come in various sizes and materials to suit different needs. This simple yet effective tool enhances accessibility by bridging the gap between physical limitations and environmental demands.
Place the ladder or step stool on a flat, stable surface before use. Always face the ladder while climbing and maintain three points of contact—two feet and one hand—for balance. Avoid overreaching or leaning to one side. After use, store it in a dry area to prevent damage and check regularly for any loose parts or wear. Cleaning the steps and surfaces helps maintain grip and safety over time.
