If you’re tired of the shoulder pain
you experience when carrying an
industrial-strength, fibreglass ladder,
the solution could be the Permanent-
Mount shoulder pad, which makes
hauling a ladder more like carrying a
kitten on your shoulder (assuming you
can find a 45kg kitten).
Made entirely of polyethylene foam,
the PASR-3 is not only extremely
strong and durable, it also provides
excellent vibration and shock
absorbency. And being able to tote your
ladder without the accompanying pain
means you can more readily carry the
ladder in the proper way.
The PASR-3 even helps prevent
shoulder and back injuries. It
accommodates any shoulder size and
shape. Its bevelled edges minimise
interference with clothing and objects,
and help reduce wear and tear to a
minimum. It’s also waterproof.
Ladderlimb
Ladderlimb was recently launched on the market to enable all ladder users to
perform more safely and efficiently when carrying out all ladder tasks.
Ladderlimb makes working up ladders safer by securely holding tool bags, buckets of
water or paint cans securely in place leaving your hands free to work. It fits into the hollow
rung of most modern aluminium ladders and the handle of your bucket, tool bag or paint tin is
then clipped onto the sprung clasp at the end of the hand grip.
The tapered, rubberised ‘limb’ of the LadderLimb fits snugly into the ladder, holding whatever
is attached to it securely in place. And, when you wish to work at another height, the LadderLimb
can be easily and effortlessly withdrawn and placed into another rung.
Ladderlimb is available in Bunnings.
Lock Jaw Ladder Grip
Lock Jaw Ladder Grip is a new Australian product that assists in securing ladders
to gutters. It is designed to increase the safety of persons who use ladders and
assist in meeting increasingly strict legal requirements associated with ladder use.
Lock Jaw Ladder Grip contains an
adjustable locking jaw allowing it to
be secured to a range of different
gutter types. In addition there are
adjustment mechanisms that allow
the device to be used on a wide variety
of single and extension ladders.
Once a ladder has been climbed the
Lock Jaw Ladder Grip can be clamped
onto or removed from guttering in
approximately five seconds.

The patented LeveLok LL-
STB-1 leveller/stabiliser
has only two controls and
operating it is so easy, it can
be done with the touch of a toe.
To set into position, hold the
ladder with both hands and
simply push the foot pedal
down. The leg will extend in increments of 5mm up to 245mm. You’ll hear the
stainless steel ratchet’s reassuring ‘click’ with each increment. When the leg has
been extended to the point where it has firm footing, you’re done. Additionally, the
automatic backup safety lock is instantly activated, thereby preventing accidental
slipping or tripping of the locking mechanism. This is another patented feature
found only on Levelok Ladder Levelling Systems.
Tough as nails, the LeveLok LL-STB-1 leveller/stabiliser enables most
fibreglass, aluminium or wood ladders to adapt to nearly any indoor or outdoor
situation – from stairwells to uneven terrain.
