- Is this ladder safe to use near electrical work?
- Yes. The fiberglass rails and top are non-conductive, which is why fiberglass is preferred over aluminum around wiring. It is rated Type IA and meets OSHA, ANSI and CSA standards.
- How high can I reach on the 6-foot model?
- Sussuro lists a maximum reach of about 124 inches when the ladder is open. That assumes a person standing within the rated step, so keep your hips below the top cap.
- What is the difference between the 6-foot and 5-step labeling?
- The ladder is 6 feet tall with five steps plus the top cap. Step count and ladder height are measured differently, so check the open height of 72 inches against your ceiling or work area.
- Does the top hold a paint can and tools?
- The ProTop has a paint can holder, handyman tool slots, a pipe holder and a hardware tray. A magnet on the curved front secures small steel parts like screws and bits.
- Is $141.85 a good price for this ladder?
- That is the best new price across three stores as of November 8, 2026. Fiberglass Type IA ladders in this size often list higher, so it sits at the low end of its recent range.
- How much does it weigh and how do I store it?
- Sussuro does not list a weight here, but fiberglass ladders of this size are heavier than aluminum. It folds flat to about 73.8 inches tall for storage against a wall or in a garage.
