Lyte TRL230 Double Section Roof Ladder (TRL230)

Lyte TRL230 Professional Double Section Roof Ladder - Engineered for Safety and Performance

The Lyte TRL230 Double Section Roof Ladder represents the pinnacle of professional roofing equipment, combining innovative safety features with robust aluminium construction. Designed specifically for trade use by roofing specialists and construction professionals, this ladder system delivers unmatched reliability for demanding work environments.

Uncompromising Safety Features

As an EN131 certified professional ladder, the TRL230 meets rigorous European safety standards. The dual-section design incorporates a fail-safe locking mechanism that prevents accidental collapse during use. Each of the 20 rungs (11+9 configuration) features deep anti-slip grooves that maintain traction even in wet conditions. The specially engineered roof hooks provide secure attachment to roof ridges, preventing lateral movement that could compromise stability.

Superior Aluminium Construction

Crafted from aerospace-grade aluminium, this ladder achieves an optimal balance between strength and weight. The material's natural corrosion resistance makes it ideal for outdoor use, unaffected by rain, snow, or UV exposure. Unlike fibreglass alternatives, the aluminium construction eliminates the risk of electrical conductivity while maintaining a manageable weight of just XX kg for easy transportation.

Comparison with Alternative Ladder Types

Unlike single-section ladders, the TRL230's dual-section design provides adjustable working heights without requiring multiple ladders. When compared to fibreglass models, the aluminium construction offers significant weight reduction while maintaining similar strength characteristics. The roof-specific design outperforms standard extension ladders with its secure hook system that prevents slippage on pitched roofs.

Maintenance and Longevity

To ensure decades of reliable service:

• Inspect locking mechanisms monthly for smooth operation
• Clean rungs regularly to maintain anti-slip properties
• Store in dry conditions when not in use
• Check for aluminium oxidation annually
• Lubricate moving parts with silicone spray every 6 months
