Lyte NELT250 Double Section Extension Ladder: The Ultimate Professional Access Solution
The Lyte NELT250 Double Section Extension Ladder represents the pinnacle of professional access equipment, combining robust construction with intelligent safety features for demanding work environments. Engineered specifically for tradespeople and industrial users, this EN131-2 certified ladder delivers unmatched performance where it matters most.
Professional-Grade Construction
Built from high-grade aluminium alloy, the NELT250 offers the perfect balance between strength and weight. The material selection ensures corrosion resistance while maintaining structural integrity under heavy use. Unlike cheaper alternatives, this ladder features reinforced rung joints and thicker wall tubing (2mm+) for enhanced durability. The 2-section design with 17 rungs per section provides versatile height adjustment options, making it suitable for everything from gutter maintenance to commercial construction projects.
Advanced Safety Features
Safety takes center stage with the NELT250's comprehensive protection system. The newly improved adjacent stabiliser bar significantly reduces lateral movement, providing exceptional stability on uneven surfaces. Each rung features deep serrations and an anti-slip coating that maintains grip even in wet conditions. The precision-engineered locking mechanism ensures positive engagement when extended, with visual and tactile confirmation for the user. These features combine to create one of the safest extension ladders available for professional use.
