Use this formal stepladder inspection checklist to verify the safety and condition of stepladders before use. Record key details such as ladder ID, date, user, and inspector, then work through checks for top rail, platform, feet and end caps, treads, stiles, back legs and rails, braces and struts, hinges and fixings, and extending ladder components including fly section, rung locks, base section, and guide brackets. Confirm locking and restraint mechanisms function correctly and assess overall stability by opening the ladder as for normal use. Capture overall condition, required actions such as cleaning or minor maintenance, whether a new tag is needed, and if the ladder must be taken out of service. This template helps improve compliance and documentation of ladder inspections.
