Ladder Safety Base System

A safety base system that secures an extension ladder up to 60 feet to prevent kick out and reduce lateral movement when used in conjunction with proper ladder techniques.


Risks Addressed:

Climbing extension ladders that are unstable can increase the chance of a fall leading to an injury or even death.  Fractures are the most common injuries associated with falling from a ladder, followed by strains, sprains, and abrasions.  A ladder safety base system can prevent kickout and reduce unwanted ladder movement by improving stability.


How Risks are Reduced:

Using a ladder safety base system (in conjunction with proper ladder techniques) can reduce the likelihood of falls because the base provides more surface ground contact and eliminates the requirement for the ladder to solely rely on the rubber feets of the extension ladder for grip and stability.
