Standard EN SampleLadders. Single or Multiple Hinge-Joint Ladders
Also Known As:
The requirements, tests, and labeling for hinged combination ladders with one or more hinge joints are outlined in the standard known as BS EN 131-4:2020. The standard specifies the particular requirements that these ladders must fulfill to guarantee their safe and efficient use.
It is significant to note that the hinge joints of combination and standing ladders as described by EN 131-1 are not covered by this standard. Therefore, only the hinge joints of hinged combination ladders fall within the purview of this standard.
The use of BS EN 131-4:2020 is intended in conjunction with EN 131-1, EN 131-2, and EN 131-3, among other pertinent standards. To ensure a thorough approach to ladder safety, these additional standards offer detailed rules for other aspects of ladder construction and use.
