In the world of gardening, long handles on garden tools are invaluable. This feature contributes to ergonomics, efficiency and overall gardening enjoyment. However, these long stems also present challenges, especially when shipping.

Long, ash handles
But why do we put long, ash wood handles on our tools? Below we have outlined five benefits of why we choose long handles on some of our stainless steel garden tools:
- Ergonomics and back protection. Long handles reduce back strain, allowing gardeners to work more comfortably and preventing back pain, especially important for older gardeners or people with back problems.
- Reach and accessibility. Long handles increase reach, allowing gardeners to easily reach taller plants without having to stretch or bend, enabling more efficient work.
- Efficiency and productivity. Long handles allow gardeners to do more work in less time, allowing them to enjoy the fruits of their labour more without taking a great physical toll.
- Less bending and flexing. Using long-handled tools reduces bending and stooping, which reduces tension and fatigue in the back and knees and helps prevent injuries.
- Versatility. Long handles can be fitted with different tools such as hoes, scrapers and rakes, allowing gardeners to remain flexible and perform different tasks with the same tool, making the gardening experience more convenient and enjoyable.
Comfort
In short, long handles in garden tools improve ergonomics, efficiency and productivity, and contribute to overall gardening enjoyment by making work easier and more comfortable. Whether you are a passionate gardener or just love spending time outside, investing in garden tools with long handles will definitely pay off and help you enjoy your outdoor space even more.
