SPRINGVILLE, UT, March 21, 2005 — Wing Enterprises, the maker of the celebrated Little Giant Ladder System®, announced today the launch of a new line of ladders for home and professional use. This innovative line of ladders, known as the Ultra Step™, has been designed specifically to provide a lightweight alternative for those who need a 5’ – 8’ A-frame, and a ladder that can handle staircases or go vertically against walls and corners. “Everyone knows of the versatility and quality of the main Little Giant® 1A line that is featured on television,” said Hal Wing, Wing founder and CEO. “Our experience has shown us, though, that there were people out there, such as painters, plumbers, electricians, industrial shops, and homemakers, that were looking for something lightweight, secure, compact, and versatile for strictly indoor use. Something that has Little Giant quality and stability, and also half the price.” The Little Giant® Ultra Step has a unique tripod-like design that gives the ladder Little Giant stability while delivering significant reduction in weight. Using the easy-to-use mechanisms well known to those who have ladders from Wing’s main lines, the ladder can adjust to fit staircases, sloping ground, and ramps. Additionally, with the tripod leg in the vertical position, users can get right up close to walls or corners, where with traditional A-frame ladders, the higher you go, the further you are from your work space.
As has been shown in numerous tests and comparisons, safety and quality have always been a priority at Little Giant. As such, the Ultra Step is rated up to 300 lbs, and meets or exceeds all applicable OSHA and ANSI standards. Additionally, Little Giant makes a fiberglass version of the Ultra Step for safe use for those who need to work with electrical components. “The Ultra Step has quickly become my ladder of choice. I like it”, said Brian Ekins, an electrician working in the Salt Lake area. “It is easy to pack around, and versatile enough to do pretty much anything I need to do – stairs, up against walls, multiple sizes. And the quality of construction and design is the best I’ve ever seen.”
The Little Giant Ultra Step is now available on our website - Little Giant Discount.
