Werner Equalizing Ladder

Hooray safety! Werner has released a ladder to eliminate the need for off-beat stabilizers—like blocks of wood or dead bodies. The safety device on the base of the ladder can extend the length of a leg to equalize the ladder on uneven surfaces. This ladder goes for a hefty $250. But that is a small price to pay for safety.

  • Yawn.

    Ladder stabilizer legs, which safely attach to ANY brand of ladder, have been gracing the shelves of your local big-box stores for years and years.

  • i can't believe that it took until the year 2006 for a ladder to come with this intalled.

    you'd think any ladder product realization-er fresh out of b. school (or ladder school i guess) would have come up with this on their first day sometime between like 1066 AD and 2005.

    I have a Little-Giant brand ladder that came with one of these about 5 years ago.
