Henchman Fully Adjustable PRO Tripod Ladder

The Henchman Fully Adjustable PRO Tripod Ladder is built for professional hedge cutting, tree work and maintenance where stability on soft or uneven ground is non-negotiable. Designed to be leaned into rather than stood flat on, it gives you a secure working position when cutting, pruning or shaping dense foliage.

With independently adjustable legs, dual platform rungs and EN131 certification, the PRO Tripod is aimed at regular, heavy use. It offers more adjustability and durability than standard tripod ladders, making it a dependable choice for gardeners, grounds staff and contractors who spend long days working at height.

What the Henchman Fully Adjustable PRO Tripod Ladder Is Designed For

The Henchman Fully Adjustable PRO Tripod Ladder is designed for work where you need to lean in and stay supported rather than stand upright on a platform. It’s purpose-built for hedge cutting, tree maintenance and shaping work on soft or uneven ground, where standard ladders and steps quickly become unstable.

Why a Tripod Ladder Works Better for Hedge and Tree Work

Tripod ladders are designed to be worked into foliage. The single rear leg allows you to position the ladder close to hedges and trees, while the wide front stance keeps the ladder stable as you lean forward. This makes cutting and pruning more controlled and reduces strain during longer jobs.

What Sets the PRO Tripod Apart

The PRO model builds on Henchman’s standard Fully Adjustable Tripod with features aimed at regular, professional use.

• 20% more leg adjustability than the standard Fully Adjustable model
• Dual platform rungs to support working at two different heights
• Hedge-proof locking pin to stop legs shifting in dense growth
• Extra-wide clawed feet to prevent sinking on lawns and soft ground
• Thicker aluminium sections in high-stress areas for durability

Stability on Uneven and Soft Ground

Each leg adjusts independently, allowing the ladder to sit securely on slopes, steps and uneven terrain. The clawed feet grip into soil and turf, while rubber overshoes can be fitted for indoor or hard-surface work. This makes the PRO Tripod suitable for mixed environments without compromising stability.

Choosing the Correct Ladder Size

Ladder size refers to the total height when fully retracted and does not change. On the PRO Tripod, the working platform sits 3ft / 0.9m below the top of the ladder, placing your waist roughly level with the top. Most work should be carried out between waist and shoulder height.

As a guide, shoulders sit around 2ft / 60cm above waist height. This means a 6ft ladder typically covers a working height range of around 6–8ft. Choosing the right size based on working height is essential for comfort and safety.

Who the PRO Tripod Is Best Suited To

The PRO Tripod is ideal for users who work at height regularly and need a ladder that copes with changing ground conditions. It’s commonly used by professional gardeners, tree surgeons, grounds maintenance teams and estate workers, as well as serious home users with large or mature gardens.

Where It Sits in the Henchman Range

The Fully Adjustable PRO Tripod sits above the standard Fully Adjustable Tripod in terms of durability and adjustability. It’s the most capable tripod ladder Henchman offers, but it remains lighter and more manoeuvrable than platform-based options like the All Terrain Telescopic Platform.
