Type 1 Ladder
If you are in the market for a Little Giant Ladder and have started some research, you will notice that there are different types of Little Giant Ladders. The obvious question is What’s the difference between a Type 1, a Type 1A, and a Type 1AA?
Basically, the ‘Type’ designation of each ladder is simply a rating of how much weight a single rung on the ladder can bear. There is no other difference between the ladders.
Load ratings for Little Giant ladders include the Type 1, with a capacity of 250 pounds, the Type 1A, with a capacity of 300 pounds and the Type 1AA, which supports up to 375 pounds.
The Type 1 ladder is the smallest and least expensive ranging from $199 – $259. The Type 1 also weighs less than its upgraded counterparts, however not by much. The new Type 1A Revolution XE ladder is very competitive with the smallest Revolution XE model weighing only 2 lbs more than the smallest Type 1 model and the largest Revolution XE model actually weighing 4 lbs LESS than the largest Type 1 model. In addition, the Revolution XE has a load rating of 300 lbs. Thats something to consider when trying to decide between the ladder types.
If you just need a versatile multi-purpose ladder for basic indoor household use, the Type 1 ladder is all the ladder you will need. It still has the ability to convert into 24 different laddersthey just are shorter ladders more manageable for indoor use. The Type 1 ladder is still made form the same strong heavy-wall, 6005-T5 aluminum, the very same material used in aerospace construction. So it’s ultra-strong while remaining light and portable. It also comes with a lifetime warranty and free shipping.
