Oh, forgot to say Rhys, in my opinion, those folding ladders never look that strong to me, maybe because im a fat lad, but i always suspect the nuckles are going to give way:scared1:

 

Dont think they would ever give way, but you are right, its the knuckles that are the weak link in those ladders. We had one of those, just to get into the loft, the mechanism was cheap, I bent the little catches, and you need 3 hands to use it effectively.:thumbdown:

Theres cheap knuckles and there's dear knuckles, the professional knuckles are black the diy are silver, I forget which make it is, but if they are black coloured they are strong.

 

Again, buy cheap buy twice

The ones on the one I had were silver, and I can confirm they aren't strong.:thumbup1:

 

Like I said, it was literally just to get into the loft so wasn't a big prob. Definately wouldn't use it for work though:thumbup1:
