Safely make updates and repairs around the home with a step ladder from Ace Hardware. Our large selection of step ladders includes multiple sizes and brands to suit your needs. Whether you're painting a room, hanging holiday lights or painting trim, you'll find the right accompaniment for your project at Ace.

What is a Step Ladder?

Whereas typical ladders need to be propped up, a step ladder can be opened to stand on its own without any support. They are also taller than step stools. You can find step ladders with and without platforms, which can be especially useful for painting projects. They range in size from a couple of feet to 10 feet or more, with telescoping models also available for extra height.

Durable Step Ladder Materials

Step ladders are typically constructed from either fiberglass or aluminum. While each material has certain advantages and disadvantages, choosing the right ladder will largely depend on the nature of your work. 

  • Fiberglass step ladders can last a lifetime, as they resist weathering and protect you from electric shock. They are heavier than aluminum and can be more expensive.
  • Aluminum step ladders are lightweight and highly portable, making them ideal for home and professional use.

Stepping Ladder Weight Capacity

Your step ladder needs to be able to bear the weight of both you and your tools. Weight capacities are typically noted in five types with corresponding weight limits:

  • Type IAA have 375 lb. capacities
  • Type IA have 300 lb. capacities
  • Type I have 250 lb. capacities
  • Type II have 225 lb. capacities
  • Type III have 200 lb. capacities

Platform Step Ladder for Painting  

A step ladder with a platform makes a good painter’s ladder. With a wide base to support your tools, these painter’s ladders come with a platform to allow you to keep painting supplies like tape, paint buckets, paint brushes and other tools well within arm’s length to make the painting process less of a hassle.

For greater versatility, anextension ladder can be lengthened to give the user more reach. With its adjustable heights and ability to double up as a twin-step ladder, they make handy aids for home renovation projects and routine jobs alike.
