How did construction scaffold appear?

Many jobs at work and around the house, where you need to climb to a certain height, are conveniently performed using double-sided stepladders. Double-sided stepladders differ from single-sided ones in that they do not have a high safety arc, which adds bulk to the ladder. Double-sided stepladders, on the contrary, are more compact with the same number of steps, they are easy to unfold in one movement, because they do not have an upper working platform.
- these are the basic advantages of a double-sided stepladder. But with significant portability, double-sided stepladders provide the necessary working height for many, many tasks.
One of the areas of application of double-sided stepladders is stores and pharmacies. When you have to work with the upper shelves in the sales area, you can't do without a stepladder, because all supermarkets have high shelves with goods. A double-sided stepladder in a compact folded position is discreetly stored in a free niche, and if necessary, it is easily and quickly unfolded. The stable double-sided stepladder does not slip on a smooth floor thanks to the ribbed support tips, and the high double-sided stepladders are also held in place with tensioning belts.
Double-sided aluminum stepladders VIRASTAR GORA are available with a number of steps from 2x2 to 2x8. You can get a working height of up to 3.45 m.
In pharmacies, where medicines are stored in cabinets from the floor to the ceiling, a stepladder is also needed. A double-sided stepladder is approximately 60 cm shorter than a single-sided one, since this is the height of the safety arc. When there is not much storage space, it is more rational to buy a double-sided stepladder.
If a single-sided stepladder needs to be turned around to put the steps in the right direction, then you can unfold the double-sided one and climb from either side.
The aluminum double-sided stepladder Virastar Gora is made with ribbed steps and has protective caps at the ends. The tensioning straps are made of durable, abrasion-resistant material, which prevents the sections from diverging too much.
You can use double-sided stepladders for your business both at work and at home. Our VIRASTAR GORA stepladders have a certificate of conformity with DSTU and a personal passport.
