<p><img src="images/newShop/modum/checks.jpg" alt="Safelincs is now the only UK importer of the unique Modum Ladder" width="400" height="269" align="right" border="1" hspace="10" />Your Modum ladder will arrive with all the screws, washers and wall plugs that will be neccessary to fit the ladder. We'll even send you the two masonry drill bits that you'll need to create the correct size holes in your wall. The pack contains everything you will need. Your ladder will arrive in modules, which will have been chosen to fit your needs. We also include metal spacers to fill any gaps between the ladder and the wall in case the surface of your wall should be slightly uneven.</p>
<p><img src="images/newShop/modum/dvd.gif" alt="DVD" width="40" height="40" align="left" border="0" hspace="10" />The Modum ladder is quite easy to install and assemble, and for your convenience Safelincs will send an installation DVD with every Modum ladder purchased. The installation guide shows a step-by-step installation of the ladder in a two storey building by a trained installer. You can also request the DVD for free (£4.50 postage) prior to committing yourself to a purchase. This allows you to assess the possibility of a self-installation. <br /><br />The tools you will need for your installation are (in sequence of use):</p>
<ul>
<li value="0">Sharp knife</li>
<li value="0">Wooden blocks</li>
<li value="0">Screwdriver (flat head)</li>
<li value="0">2 x 8mm spanners or sockets</li>
<li value="0">2 x 10mm spanners or sockets</li>
<li value="0">DIY ladder and means of securing it to the building</li>
<li value="0">Tape measure</li>
<li value="0">Marker pen</li>
<li value="0">Hammer and centre punch</li>
<li value="0">Power drill</li>
<li value="0">Extension cable</li>
<li value="0">8mm masonry drill bit (included with your ladder)</li>
<li value="0">12mm masonry drill bit (included with your ladder)</li>
<li value="0">13mm spanner or socket</li>
<li value="0">The screws, washers, wall plugs and distance pieces you will need are also included with your ladder</li>
<li value="0">If your ladder is assembled from more than one module, we also include the appropriate number of connector kits</li>
</ul>
<p>Please observe caution when working on tall ladders or using DIY tools. Installing a Modum ladder for a three storey building will require more than one person, and a working platform or lift. This is because a DIY ladder is too unstable for a safe installation of the Modum ladder at this height. We reccommend you seek specialist advice from us if you intend to buy a Modum for a particularly high building.</p>
<p><strong>What is on the DVD?</strong></p>
