StihlHenchman Platforms, Tripod Ladders, Wheelbarrows & Spares
This Henchman range is built for working safely on ground where ordinary ladders and barrows fall short. Slopes, banks, soft lawns, steps and uneven terrain are exactly where these platforms, tripod ladders and barrows earn their keep.
The range covers stable platform ladders for hedge cutting and general maintenance, adjustable tripod ladders for pruning and tight access work, and heavy-duty wheelbarrows designed to stay balanced and controllable on awkward ground. Add-on extenders, trolleys and a full selection of spare parts mean the kit can be adapted, maintained and kept working long term — not replaced at the first failure.
Everything here suits users who want proper footing, predictable stability and equipment that’s designed around real outdoor conditions rather than flat concrete floors.

Designed for Uneven Ground and Real Outdoor Work
Henchman equipment is chosen by people who already know the limits of standard ladders and barrows. If you’re working on sloping gardens, uneven lawns, banks or soft ground, this is the sort of kit that removes the guesswork and reduces the risk. Platform ladders give you a stable place to stand and work, tripod ladders let you get into tight or awkward spots, and the barrows are built to stay balanced where cheaper options start fighting you.
At Suffolk Mowers, this range makes sense for customers who want to buy once and keep using it. The availability of extenders, upgrades and spare parts means you’re not throwing equipment away because of a worn leg or damaged wheel. It’s practical gear for people who actually use it, season after season.
What the Henchman Range Is Made For
Henchman equipment is designed around one core problem: working safely and efficiently on uneven ground. Slopes, soft soil, banks, steps and awkward access points are where standard ladders and barrows become unstable or frustrating. This range exists to remove that risk and make those jobs manageable.
The focus isn’t height for the sake of it — it’s controlled footing, adjustability and balance in places where the ground is never level.
Platform Ladders vs Tripod Ladders — Choosing the Right Approach
Henchman Hi-Step Platform Ladders
The Hi-Step platform ladders are built for jobs where you need a stable standing position rather than climbing up and down rungs. They suit hedge cutting, shaping, fencing work and general garden maintenance where you’re moving sideways and working with both hands.
- Large standing platform for confidence and comfort
- Adjustable legs to cope with slopes, steps and banks
- More controlled than leaning ladders on uneven lawns
Extenders and trolleys allow you to increase reach or move taller units more easily, rather than jumping straight to a bigger ladder.
Henchman Tripod Ladders
Tripod ladders are about access and positioning. They’re ideal for pruning, orchard work and jobs where you need to get close to trees, shrubs or tight spaces without a wide ladder footprint.
- Narrow working footprint for awkward locations
- Adjustable rear leg for sloping or soft ground
- Better placement between plants and around obstacles
Fully Adjustable vs PRO Tripod Ladders
The Fully Adjustable tripod suits many domestic and light trade users working on uneven but predictable ground. The PRO version is aimed at tougher conditions and more frequent use.
- PRO models offer greater adjustment range for steeper or inconsistent ground
- Better choice for regular pruning or commercial-style use
- Standard Fully Adjustable models suit lighter workloads and home use
If you’re often compensating for severe slopes or constantly changing terrain, the PRO is the sensible step up.
All Terrain Telescopic Platform — When a Full Platform Makes Sense
The All Terrain Telescopic Platform is the most work-focused option in the range. It’s aimed at users who want a proper platform feel rather than a ladder, especially for longer tasks where stability and comfort matter.
- Independent leg adjustment for uneven ground
- Telescopic height control
- Better suited to extended working at height
This sits above the Hi-Step range for users who need a more substantial working platform.
Henchman Wheelbarrows and Accessories
Henchman barrows are built with the same uneven-ground logic. They’re chosen by users who want stability and control rather than maximum capacity at all costs.
- Compact designs for narrow access
- Better balance on slopes and rough ground
- Puncture-proof and pneumatic wheel options available
Tow bars, replacement tubs and wheels allow the barrow to be set up for different jobs rather than replaced.
Long-Term Ownership and Spares Support
A key strength of the Henchman range is support over time. Replacement legs, feet, wheels, handles and other spares are readily available, making it realistic to keep equipment working for years.
For buyers who use their kit regularly, this matters just as much as the initial specification.
Buying Henchman from Suffolk Mowers
Choosing the right Henchman equipment is only part of the job. Buying it from a dealer that understands how it’s actually used makes the difference long term. At Suffolk Mowers, this range is supplied with practical advice, fast dispatch and access to the parts and upgrades that keep it working properly.
We support the full Henchman range with genuine spares, replacement components and compatible accessories, so you’re not left stuck if something wears or gets damaged. That matters with equipment designed for uneven ground, where proper setup and maintenance affect both safety and lifespan.
For customers using Henchman kit regularly, having a dealer who can help with replacements, upgrades and ongoing support keeps the equipment working as intended, season after season.
