Maybe not what you want, but today, Maplin are doing a 3.56m multi
function ladder for £39.00. Its one of those that can be set up as a
step ladder. a trad ladder, a work platform, an overhanging step ladder
- or a step ladder with different height front or back legs. Probably
more too.

Almost all such cheap, multi-function ladders are somewhat ricketty.
As one of the main causes of death and injury, especially in older
people, is falling from ladders, we paid a lot more for a stable
industrial step ladder.
