Title is pretty much everything!

I have these high up windows that I’d like to clean and maybe in the future install curtains on. I guestimate the wall being 20ft (6m) tall.

For other rooms in the house I typically use an A-Frame, but it’s impossible to find an A-Frame to reach that high where I am.

I plan on draping a towel over the top of the ladder to prevent scratches and scuffs on the wall, as well as getting a rubber mat or something if the floor seems slippery. I am just not sure if drywall would support a ladder? Especially near the frame of the windows. Maybe there’s something else I’m not considering as well?

    Slip socks over the end against the wall to protect the surface. Angle the ladder so the steps are parallel with the floor and go for it! Have someone hold the base of the ladder for additional security.
