Ladders & Scaffolding

Yes! Lean a wooden ladder against the wall and add planks as shelves, or hang horizontally with ropes.

Use the 4:1 rule: For every 4 feet of height, move the base 1 foot away from the wall. Secure both top and bottom to prevent slipping.

Attach a angled or vertical ladder with bolts (not screws) for stability. Add anti-slip treads.

Avoid painting (hides cracks/damage). For grip, use adhesive treads or rubber caps on feet. Never drill holes—it weakens the structure.
