Repairs
We’re not able to offer a repair service for ladders we have not
fitted.
The only problems we have had with any of the thousands of
ladders we have fitted since 2001, have been with customer’s
own ladders that we have fitted for them. It’s for this reason that
we no longer fit ladders bought by customers as they’re usually
cheap tat from B&Q, Tesco direct or Argos.
All our ladders are covered by our 5 year guarantee - we can
afford to do this as they simply don’t go wrong.
In our experience if a ladder needs repair it’s too old and
uneconomic to be fixed - the parts won’t be available and
they’re likely to be riveted in. In the case of old wooden ladders
that have split, repairs are very difficult without weakening the
structure so it’s not worth the risk.
Hatch not closing?
If we’ve installed a ladder for you and now you can’t close the
hatch, you will have turned the catch too far, which is surprising
as we carefully explained how to use it and the catch requires
quite a bit of force to turn it too far. =sigh=
To fix,
undo the metal bolt until you can turn the plastic tongue back
to where it should be and then tighten back up, but not too
tight.
