Werner Makes Aluminum Version of Popular LeanSafe X3 Ladder
It wasn’t too long ago that we had the pleasure of safely climbing around on the corner-friendly and easy-to-use Werner LeanSafe X3 fiberglass ladder. We’ve also learned recently that Werner has extended the LeanSafe line into the aluminum realm. It still provides the feature set that makes it so safe and easy to use, but now it comes in a lightweight and rugged aluminum frame.

What’s the Big Deal?
Really, the big deal surrounding the Werner Aluminum LeanSafe Ladder is that it features an aluminum frame, as opposed to the fiberglass frame of the previous edition. While this doesn’t give you the shock resistance of the fiberglass, the aluminum offers similar strength and durability but with even less weight. In this case, it weighs just 22.8 lbs. compared to the 24 pounds of the original LeanSafe X3 ladder.

The Werner Aluminum LeanSafe ladder can also be used against corners, studs, poles, and other vertical surfaces.
