PATENTED ONE-TOUCH RELEASE

Once the ladder is locked in place, you can quickly and easily pinch the One Touch Release Buttons that will slowly lower the rungs back to it’s original compact size. No physical tug of war, no use of tools…just a simple pinch, to lower inch by inch!

WIDE STABILIZER BAR

The ES Series features a wide stabilizer bar that provides additional stability and safety when using the ladder. The Essential Tool for Contractors, Professionals and Homeowners. Made of aircraft grade aluminum.

PROFESSIONAL WIDE STEPS

The EP Series features the wide Pro Step, for professional use. The steps are a comfortable 3 5/8” wide, ribbed for grip and angled at 75% so Contractors feet are always flat and level on the rung of the ladder.

STAIR OFFSET FEATURE

The ES Combination series has a stair feature. Move the Retainer Block from the bottom rung to a higher rung on the back side of the ladder. Press it underneath the rung. Then pinch the red buttons together and raise the base so it meets the Retainer Block and can fit on a staircase.

SAFETY BARS

The top rungs are for leaning against or holding onto. Do not climb on them. This feature adds addition stability and safety when working up high on the ladder. When the back side of the ladders has been raised and locked into the Retainer Block on a higher rung, you can now lean the ladder against a wall and use it as an extension ladder.
