Product Description
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The super sturdy Ladder-Max is professional grade, but homeowner friendly. It provides 19" of standoff from gutters, roofing and walls while stabilizing your ladder with arms that reach 36" from tip to tip. Our signature orange tips are made in the USA of non-marring heavy duty plastic and provide four points of stable contact to protect you from sideslip and to protect the surface on which your Ladder-Max standoff rests. The standoff distance also allows you to work in a natural, unstrained position. You're able to reach farther more safely.
The Ladder-Max standoff is constructed in the USA of rugged, durable, rust-resistant steel and is built to last. It has the highest duty rating for type 1AA ladders with a special duty rating of #375.
We conducted additional testing in a battle which pitted Ladder-Max against a 4X4 truck. Click here to see who won!
Ladder-Max fits all major aluminum, wood and fiberglass extension and articulating ladders including Werner, Louisville, Howard, Gorilla, Little Giant, Green Bull and others. Ladder Max slips over 2 of your ladder's rungs, which should be 12 inches on center.
Ladder-Max makes your ladder SAFER!
- 19-INCH STANDOFF – Ladder standoff provides 19 inches of work area, safely protecting gutters, siding, roof, paint finishes, and you! Prevent damage to your home, gutters, and ladder while protecting yourself with added stability and increased safety in stepping on and off your roof.
- CERTIFIED for direct roof placement. Constructed in the USA of rugged, durable, rust-resistant steel and signature non-marring heavy-duty plastic tips that reach 36” tip to tip and have four points of stable contact.
- FITS ALL major aluminum, wood and fiberglass extension and articulating ladders.
- SIMPLE, EASY, & FAST to take on and off ladder.
- GREAT FOR DIY homeowners, general contractors, gutter cleaning, roofers, painters, window cleaning, installing Christmas and holiday lights, and other home maintenance projects.
Ladder- Max standoff stabilizer is OSHA compliant and structurally built to withstand the weight of placing the stabilizing arms directly on a roof while stabilizing and supporting the weight of the individual on the ladder and still providing the necessary standoff distance to protect gutters and roofing materials from being damaged by the ladder leaning against them. To easily access the roof, the Ladder-Max is placed on the 4th and 5th rungs of an extension ladder, allowing the other rungs of the ladder to extend 36" above the roof surface. The user can then climb the ladder up to the roof and, while holding onto the ladder rails which extend past the roof, side step onto it.

Another Roof Access Option |
||||
There is another ladder accessory option for those people who are not comfortable side stepping onto a roof. When the Ladder-Max standoff/ stabilizer is combined with the Safe-T Ladder Rail extensions, the user can step through the safety rails onto the roof without side stepping while still protecting gutters and roofing materials from damage. Both methods are OSHA compliant. Safe-T Ladder Rails may be used on an extension ladder with or without a Ladder-Max standoff. The Safe-T Rail extensions are designed to attach to the top of the ladder side rails. They attach in seconds without tools. |

User friendly
Posted by John Tolhurst on 19th Jun 2021
Compared to the cross bar clamped to the uprights, the mounting of this device is vastly easier and every bit as secure. Does a good job of keeping a ladder off vulnerable rain gutters.

Very good product easy to use. Assembly instructions could be written to be more clear. The parts for assembly could also be labeled like part A to part B.

All great as expected
Posted by Unknown on 1st Mar 2021
I read the positive reviews and ordered it. Exactly as expected and worked great. For a short person like me, it does help to have another person to raise the ladder to reach the roof (two story high). Highly recommend. Getting to the gutter from the roof became a little too precarious for me (as I am getting older). This was the solution. Ladder felt FAR more stable with this attachment.

Ladder-Max Standoff
Posted by bill johnson on 17th Nov 2020
I haven't used the stand-off yet, I reviewed a number of similar products, many were designed to be used solely against the building wall. I choose this product because it allows me to placeth standoff on ther roof. I've assembled it, I was impressed with it's strong construction, my principle hope is that it's not too heavy to hoist the ladder to a two story high roof

Perfect!

Easy assembly ... and once on the ladder it worked fantastic! Stable and firm.

Great Product
Posted by JOHN ASHWORTH on 27th Oct 2020
This ladder standoff works great and provides a great deal of stability to the ladder. It is easy to install and provides greater lateral movement on the ladder.

Maybe my issue.. but,
Posted by Unknown on 15th Oct 2020
I installed the Ladder-Max on my 16' extension ladder and it doesn't slide past the steps very easily. Often getting pinched. I have to say that the ladder is old and maybe newer models have more clearance between steps, but that is why I give it 4 stars.
