The Original Articulating Ladder

You want safety. You want strength. And, of course, you want versatility. That's why millions worldwide have chosen the original Little Giant Ladder System.

Now there's a ladder as versatile and hard-working as you.

Little Giant Classic is a true professional-grade ladder, combining the strengths of traditional A-frame ladders, extension ladders, stepladders and even scaffolding, all in one convenient package.

Safety

The Little Giant Classic is designed to be safe, stable and secure. Since it's adjustable, the Little Giant can be used safely on stairs, ramps, curbs, docks or other uneven surfaces. And, with the new patented triple-locking hinge, the Little Giant Ladder is sturdier than ever in the extended position.

Strength

The Little Giant Classic ladder is made of heavy-wall, 6005-T5 aluminum, the very same material used in aerospace construction. So it's ultra-strong while remaining light and portable. In fact, the Little Giant Type 1A is government-rated to hold up to 300 pounds but has survived brutal stress testing of up to 1200 pounds with absolutely no structural failure.

Versatility

Little Giant Classic ladders give you the ultimate in versatility. Independent tests prove the Little Giant will replace 60-70% of all portable ladders currently being manufactured.

When you buy a Little Giant (model 17), you're not just getting one ladder. You're getting 24 different ladders in one convenient model. Plus, the addition of easy roll wheels makes your Little Giant easy to maneuver and store.

Little Giant Ladder Configurations

A-Frame Ladder

With a simple click of the patented hinge, the Little Giant can be used as a traditional A-Frame ladder.

Staircase Ladder

Because it's adjustable in one-foot increments, the Little Giant allows one side of the ladder to be extended allowing safe use on uneven surfaces like staircases, curbs or docks.

90° Ladder

Traditional ladders make working close to walls nearly impossible. With the Little Giant, one adjustment allows you to safely work against any vertical surface.

Extension Ladder

For large projects the Little Giant easily converts to a stable extension ladder allowing you to reach rooftops, tree limbs and more with ease.

Scaffolding

Since the Little Giant pulls apart to form two scaffold trestles, you just add the optional work plank (sold separately) and trestle brackets (sold separately) to form a convenient scaffolding system.
