Questions and answers

Which is better for indoor work and stairs?
The Werner MT-22. It converts to a stairway stepladder and a twin stepladder, which the Louisville extension ladder cannot do.
Which is safer around electrical work?
The Louisville. Its fiberglass rails do not conduct electricity, while the Werner's aluminum rails do.
Which reaches higher?
The Louisville, at a 24 ft design height versus 22 ft for the Werner.
Is the Werner worth the extra money right now?
It costs $335.79 versus $324.99 for the Louisville as of November 5, 2026, so the gap is small. The Werner is worth it only if you need its multiple configurations. Its own price was $249.54 on October 29, 2026, so waiting may pay off.
Can two people use either ladder at once?
Only the Werner, and only in twin stepladder mode, where each side is rated 300 lb. The Louisville is a one-person extension ladder.
Which is easier to store and transport?
The Werner folds to about 5.5 ft and fits in a car trunk or closet. The Louisville stays about 12 ft long when closed and needs a truck, van or rack.
