Young Red Haired Girl With Chains And The Ladder

• Turntable ladder, an extension ladder fitted to rotating platform on top of a fire truck
• Vertically rising ladder, a ladder designed to climb high points and facilitate suspending there.
Rigid ladders were originally made of wood,but in the 20th century tubular aluminium became more common because of its lighter weight. Ladders with fibreglass stiles are used for working on or near overhead electrical wires, because fibreglass is an electrical insulator.
