Transtak’s aluminium tripod ladders are purpose-built in New Zealand for growers, lanscapers, and DIY users who want a ladder that’s light to carry yet strong and stable to use.
The tripod design gives greater stability on soft and uneven ground than a standard A-frame, with a larger diameter back pole for less flex and more confidence when standing at height. A hinged back leg with stainless steel pivot pin & bushings and a rubber bump stop ensures quiet, durable operation, while rounded side extrusions provide a comfortable grip for daily use. Wide serrated steps and a double-width top platform provide secure footing for pruning, thinning, or DIY jobs around the home.
Available in sizes from 4 ft to 15 ft, with load ratings up to 180 kg, Transtak ladders are trusted by growers and equally popular for DIY tree work, hedge trimming, and property maintenance. All models are AS/NZ/BS/EN compliant, giving you complete confidence in safety.
Light to carry, safe to climb, and built to last.
