Lyte 7-Tread Wide Step Ladder with Handrails & Insulation (NYFWP7)
Lyte NYFWP7 Professional Wide Step Ladder with Safety Handrails
The Lyte NYFWP7 Wide Step Ladder represents the pinnacle of professional-grade access equipment, engineered specifically for tradespeople who refuse to compromise on safety or performance. This 7-tread fibreglass ladder combines innovative safety features with robust construction to create what many professionals consider the gold standard in industrial ladders.
Unmatched Safety Engineering
At the core of the NYFWP7's design is its EN131-2 certification, verifying compliance with the most stringent European safety standards for professional ladder use. The integrated handrail system provides continuous support during ascent and descent, significantly reducing fall risks compared to conventional ladders. Each of the seven 90mm deep treads features an advanced anti-slip pattern that maintains traction even in wet conditions or when wearing work boots.
The ladder's non-conductive fibreglass construction offers critical protection for electrical work, with dielectric properties rated for voltages up to 1500V. Unlike aluminium alternatives that pose electrical hazards, this makes the NYFWP7 the preferred choice for electricians, telecom engineers, and utility workers.
Professional-Grade Construction
Constructed from high-density fibreglass, the NYFWP7 achieves an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio. The material resists corrosion from weather, chemicals, and UV exposure - a significant advantage over steel ladders that rust or aluminium models that oxidise. Reinforced resin joints and metal bracing at stress points ensure structural integrity even under the maximum 150kg load capacity.
The widestep design provides 30% more standing area than standard ladders, allowing professionals to work comfortably for extended periods. Stabiliser bars create a wider base for improved balance, particularly valuable when working on uneven surfaces common at construction sites.
Comparative Advantages
When measured against competing products, the NYFWP7 stands out in several key areas:
- Versus aluminium ladders: Superior electrical safety without weight penalty
- Versus wooden ladders: Won't rot, splinter or absorb moisture
- Versus telescopic ladders: More stable platform for prolonged work
- Versus podium steps: Greater height reach with comparable stability
