A little forethought and ingenuity can help keep your family from being among the more than 171,000 people involved in ladder-related accidents each year.
Many of these accidents occur while hanging lights during the holiday season. In response, a number of retailers now carry products designed to make holiday decorating faster, safer and easier.
For example, St. Nick's Choice's No Ladder® Hanging Kit simplifies outdoor decorating by taking the ladder, and all of its associated dangers and hassles, out of the holiday decorating equation.
Sold at major home, hardware and home-improvement stores, the kit includes a nine or 11-foot telescoping pole with 50 clips and a tree adapter to decorate your home with lights. The 11-foot pole (along with a working height of 5-feet) gives you a reach of 16-feet so you can decorate your gutters/ shingles/eaves or even your taller trees. This kit will help achieve a holiday look both merry and bright in a quarter of the time it takes to hike lights and decorations up a ladder. The kit works with icicle, mini and traditional lights.
