ladders
A ladder is a vertical or inclined set of rungs or steps.
There are two types: rigid ladders that are self-supporting or that may be leaned against a vertical surface such as a wall, and rollable ladders, such as those made of rope or aluminium, that may be hung from the top. The vertical members of a rigid ladder are called stringers or rails (US) or stiles (UK).
Rigid ladders are usually portable, but some types are permanently fixed to a structure, building, or equipment. They are commonly made of metal, wood, or fiberglass, but they have been known to be made of tough plastic.

what if for instance, the gap between 2 houses was to small for a scaffold...

What height do others on here deem it to dangerous to do small works off a ladder before you need a ali tower or something . When i mean small works as in plummage kit ,blow off , couple brackets etc as in theory working off a ladder is supposed to be a no no .
