What the authority reported
The product presents a serious risk of injury because it is not supplied with a stabilizer bar, and the instructions do not indicate that one is required. If the user extends the ladder to its full 5‑metre height without a stabilizer bar, the ladder becomes unstable, increasing the likelihood of a fall from height and resulting injuries. Improvements are also required to product labelling and instructions. The product does not meet the requirements of the General Product Safety Regulations 2005.
What to do
Follow the instructions in the official notice — recall remedies (refund, repair, replacement, or disposal) are defined by the issuing authority and the responsible business, and they differ per recall. Do not rely on summaries, including this one.
