This could be a little iffy. You would have to get on the second rung from the top, so be sure you have someone in the room helping. The ladder itself, however, is very sturdy.

This is the best 6 foot ladder I have owned. It is very stable and unbelievably lite. The black platform should allow you the stand easily and install you picture. The ladder is well designed and extremely functional.

Our ceiling is 12' 6" and I am 6' 4". The ladder is very sturdy and I just got off the ladder with my measuring tape. The top step, a platform meant for standing on, is at 45" and reaching as high as I can I just get to 11'. I don't think you will make it. We love the ladder for our master closet with floor to ceiling shelves and my library with 10' high bookshelves but you will need to get the next size up. Great product!

You can use the top of this ladder as a platform but the actual hight is about 4 1/2 ft from the floor.

Please do not try it, this ladder is too short. Plus, you will be a couple of feet from the wall. You need an 8 foot ladder and a taller friend. If you buy the ladder, a Little Giant is a good option... I use the 6' all the time.

The highest step on the ladder is about 3'9". You could not reach far enough for 11 feet.This is a marvelous ladder for approx. 9 feet.

11 feet would be too high for your height, but a wonderful investment for other projects.

Sorry can't help. Don't have a tall enough ladder to reach it right now. Someone else installed it for me. Absolutely love it!!!

I think not. You should lower the ladder, not just throw it out the window. If you have questions, contact X-It. Contact info is on their website.

Here are the stats directly from the Little Giant website: http://www.littlegiantladder.com/little-giant/type-1.html. Based on what they have listed, it extends 11'-19', which would explain why we went with it. I know our ceiling is 18' and it worked out perfectly as we were painting. You definitely won't be disappointed if it meets your extended height requirement. We found it to be a savior when we had to paint over the stairs; it was easy to configure to meet our needs.

I just meaured the steps. The first step is 11.5 inches up and the second is 23 inches up. The platform is at 34 inches. The platform does not look like you want to stand on it. I would also add that when you open the ladder, the platform clicks in place and you have to unlatch it to close the ladder. I look at this as a safety feature that you don't have to worry about it closing unexpectedly. I'm still happy with the ladder. It stores in a relatively small space and is easy to carry.

Yes, The large platform at the third level is made to stand on comfortably. the narrow item on the 4th level is a tool tray which probably couldn't support more than 20 pounds and would be very unstable. There is a label hidden under the bottom step that claims the ladder has a "Working load of 225 lbs".

You just need level ground and a solid surface like a wall to lean it against so as long as the ladder is long enough, it should work.

I would say no. The stand is light for a ladder stand but it is quite tall. You would be able to get it set up by yourself...with some effort. Possible? Yes, but I wouldn't consider it an easy transport.

I'd say yes as long as your ladder is secure. Suggest strapping to the ladder too.

Unless you have 500 lbs of gear, you'll be fine. That stand is a fine piece of equipment and I've been very satisfied with the one I bought. As a matter of fact, I feel more secure in it than many of the ladder stands I hunt from. Good luck and be safe.

I would think it might not be safe. The leg of the ladder could twist or bend?

should have no problem, i weight 220. ladder is well built and very handy..

Yes!you need at least 12' opening and hang it at least 5' high. Just to take into account the elongation and sag due to your weight

I don't believe I would recommend that. It is more for situations when there is something supporting the ladder from behind, such as a house elevation, etc. I probably would not do well with nothing supporting it from behind.

I wouldn't think so. We have an 9 ft ceiling in our kitchen. I need a step ladder to reach the things that rest on top, but can reach the posts and pans hanging. We have to be careful with which ones are in the forefront so my husband, who is 5'11", doesn't hit his head on it over the sink.

Yes, it goes to 11'. It is better to have 1 other person to help but I did it by myself and this was the first time I hung sheetrock. Once I was done with my room I sold it on Craigslist to someone putting a plywood ceiling in their garage. They sold it once they were done. Hope this helps.

It should be tall enough as the rope to hang during setup is adjustable. You will have quite a bit of extra slack though, may have to trim the rope when finished setting up.
