Ladder Support Brackets for Portable Ladders
Derek Tokarz • Certified in Safety Management Group's Training in Fall Protection
Among construction workers, an estimated 81% of fall injuries treated in U.S. emergency departments (EDs) involve a ladder…and its a well-known fact that many falls from ladders occur when the top of the ladder slips.
The Kattsafe Ladder Support Brackets are designed to provide a secure attachment point for portable ladders when accessing a roof. The support bracket prevents movement of portable ladders in any direction. With the support bracket fastened to the wall or roof edge, there is then a clear, designated roof access area.
Features
Simple installation using standard fasteners
Prevents sideways movement and ladder base slip
Includes plastic coated steel cable for securing ladder to support bracket
High strength stainless steel construction
Low aesthetic profile, minimal visual impact
The LD401 wall mount and the LD402 top mount brackets can be used at strategic points around a building to allow contractors to safely mount a portable ladder and access the roof.
LD401 wall mount ladder supports can also be fixed to the wall to provide a secure, fixed point for accessing a fixed ladder that starts part way up a building.
