Telescopic Ladder
Certain telescopic extending ladders have been recalled because they may collapse under their stated weight capacity and can allow rungs to shift distance during use, creating pinching hazards when collapsed. These safety defects pose a risk of falls and injuries. The recall affects products distributed in Northern Ireland in the United Kingdom.
