Make sure spreaders on step-ladders step-ladders can be locked in place and be sure straight ladders have safety feet. 4. If you must set up a ladder in a traffic area, use barricades or guards to prevent collisions and be sure nearby doors that open toward your work are blocked. 5. Position a straight ladder at a four-to-one ratio and be sure a stepladder is fully open before using. 6. When using a straight ladder to climb onto a roof or platform, allow your ladder to extend at least three feet beyond the roof edge. 7. Climb and descend ladders cautiously by facing the ladder and holding on with both hands. 8. Never reach or lean too far to either side when on a ladder and don't climb higher than the second tread from the top on a stepladder or the third rung from the top on a straight ladder.
