Product Information
Full details
The Werner MasterTrade Platform Stepladder is a high-performance access solution designed specifically for professional tradespeople who require a stable and secure elevated workspace. Its standout feature is the large, reinforced platform and extended support rail, which provide unmatched security for prolonged tasks; however, its robust heavy-duty construction means it is significantly heavier than consumer-grade ladders, making it less portable for those who frequently move between job sites.

Can this ladder be used on carpet?
While the slip-resistant feet are designed for various surfaces, ensure the carpet is not loose or deep-pile to prevent the ladder from becoming unstable.

Troubleshooting
Ladder feels wobbly during use
Check that all four feet are making firm contact with a level floor and verify that the internal spreaders are fully locked.
Ladder is stiff to open or close
Clear any debris or dried paint from the pivot points and apply a light silicone-based lubricant to the hinges.
Slips on smooth floor surfaces
Ensure the anti-slip feet are clean and free of dust, or use a rubber floor mat to provide extra traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Werner MasterTrade ladder, always inspect the spreaders and hinges for debris before every use. When setting up, ensure the ladder is placed on a flat, stable, and level surface. Never attempt to use the ladder on uneven ground without proper leveling equipment.
Maintenance is straightforward: keep the slip-resistant treads free of oil, grease, or mud, as these can compromise your grip. If the plastic edge caps become worn, check them for integrity, as they are designed to protect the ladder's structure. Always store the ladder in a dry environment, ideally indoors or in a secure vehicle, to prevent long-term environmental degradation of the metal frame.
