Free: Loft ladder (Wellingborough NN8) Gifted 3 section aluminium loft ladder with hand rails on top section. When 2 sections opened, total length 2.28m, so all 3 sections would probably need to be extended to reach most loft openings. I have only used it as a general ladder with 2 sections. The locks for the third section (see photo) seem to be jammed through lack of use, but probably fixable. Collect anytime.
