What sizes of Vestil FBSL fiberglass step ladder are available?
Five models, which differ by step count: FBSL-4 (4 steps), FBSL-6 (6 steps), FBSL-8 (8 steps), FBSL-10 (10 steps) and FBSL-12 (12 steps). Our product data lists step count rather than overall or working height, so if you are matching the ladder to a specific reach, ask us to confirm the dimensions of that model before you order.
How much do these ladders cost?
Prices run from $182.36 to $454.29, depending on the number of steps. FBSL-4 is $182.36, FBSL-6 is $203.28, FBSL-8 is $259.62, FBSL-10 is $363.05 and FBSL-12 is $454.29. Cost rises with each size increase, so ordering only the height the job needs is the cheaper route.
Which model should I order for my application?
Choose by the number of steps needed to reach your work point comfortably. FBSL-4 and FBSL-6 suit stockroom shelving, bench work and light maintenance; FBSL-10 and FBSL-12 are for higher racking and overhead access. Because the listed data covers step count and price only, confirm the height and load rating of your chosen model with us first.
Why choose fiberglass instead of an aluminum step ladder?
Fiberglass side rails do not conduct electricity, which is why fiberglass step ladders are the usual choice for work around live electrical equipment. Aluminum is lighter and generally cheaper, but conductive. The trade-off is weight: fiberglass ladders are heavier, so if a crew carries a ladder constantly across a large site, factor that in.
How should the ladder be inspected and maintained?
Inspect it before use and keep it clean and dry. Look for cracks, gouges or splintering in the rails and steps, and check that the spreaders lock and the feet are intact and not worn through. OSHA requires employers to inspect portable ladders for visible defects periodically and after any event that could affect safe use. Remove a structurally damaged ladder from service.
What warranty comes with them, and where are they made?
Vestil provides a 1-Year Limited warranty, and the ladders are made in the USA by Vestil Manufacturing. Our product data does not spell out what the limited warranty covers or excludes, so request the full warranty terms from us if that detail matters to your purchase decision or internal approval process.
