The Henchman Pro Tripod Ladder is the ONLY fully certified tripod ladder on the market. It is the only tripod ladder on the market to receive The British Standards Institution (BSI) Kitemark BS EN131 giving you confidence in the product. In addition to this, the Pro Ladder has been certified by the independent world-renowned testing house of German Extraction – TUV Rheinland EN131/2/3 tests.

The Professional Three Adjustable Leg Tripod Ladder is most suited to professional users who will be using their tripod frequently; it is built to be tough and long-lasting making it easily able to withstand regular transportation and use by multiple operatives. The Professional range also benefits from the NEW, patent pending twist lock handle on the rear leg, this prevents branches and debris from interfering with and potentially releasing the adjustable legs unexpectedly. Not only does this help to keep you safer whilst the ladder is in use, it also helps to securely hold the rear leg in place against the frame during transportation and storage.

As with all Henchman ladders, the Professional range also benefits from a 5 year warranty for both domestic and professional use giving you greater peace of mind and confidence in the quality of your new purchase.

*FOR A LIMITED TIME* FREE rubber feet with every tripod ladder (*worth £25*)

The Professional range from Henchman includes all of the features from the standard range but has these additional benefits:

  • The range is made from thicker aluminium making it more robust and durable, it also benefits from thicker rungs giving it better protection against dents and wear from heavier work boots and/or steel toecaps.











  • An additional second platform has been added which has been designed for extra security and to allow you to work a little lower down than that of the built-in platform you will find on all Tripod ladders by Henchman. This additional step allows you to rest your chest against the guardrail allowing you to feel more stable and also gives greater versatility by offering another level of working. These platforms are offer greater comfort when used for prolonged periods of time and offer full support whether you are working at the top of the ladder or lower down and have a solid shelf rather than rungs.
  • There is also a hedge-proof locking mechanism which has been designed to ensure the legs of the Professional Tripod Ladder are locked securely in place even when working in and against hedging, trees or shrubbery.


  • The legs on the Professional Adjustable Ladder provide more adjustability than any other ladder currently on the market, with smaller adjustment levels available to choose from, you can ensure that you are always at the right level. In fact, the PRO range offers 20% more adjustability than the Fully Adjustable Tripod and at least 20% more than competitor ladders. As with all Henchman Tripod Ladders, the PRO range features extra wide feet with a large surface area to prevent sinking and a clawed design to minimise slippage.

Please see the below video for a full rundown on the advantages of the Professional Three Leg Adjustable Tripod Ladder from Henchman and if you have any questions or would like to discuss your requirements, please give us a call - 01489 575242.

Timing of your delivery

If the timing of your delivery is important to you, please check availability of goods before ordering, as if we have to order from our suppliers, then these delivery times will be longer.

  1. Measure the heights of your smallest and tallest hedges or areas of work.
  2. Decide your preferred height for reaching across the top, the easiest working height is at stomach level, approximately 3' up from your feet. Chest height is also pretty easy, this will be approximately 4' from your feet with the upper limit being shoulder height at 5' up.
  3. Subtract your preferred working height (stomach / 3', chest / 4' or shoulder / 5') from the height of your tallest hedge, this will give you the lowest platform height suitable for the job. If you need a greater variety of platform heights, you may wish to consider the Extender (*for use with the Hi-Step range*). For Tripod Ladders, you are able to stand up to 3' (or 3 rungs) from the top.
  4. Example - Your highest hedge is 10' and you are able to cut it at shoulder height / 5'. This means you will need a 5' platform so you could choose from the Wheeled 55 Henchman, the Hi-Step Midi or the 8' Tripod Ladder. The Tripod ladder is a good option if you have shrubs or a border obstructing your access to the hedge.
