Installing new rope on extension ladder using Bowline knot

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Adding new (climbing) rope on 20 ft extension ladder for $8 !!!!
I've used exactly 17 ft of 7mm climbing rope from REI ($0.45 per ft=$8).
You will need:
1) new rope (17ft for 20 ft ladder)
2) utility knife - to cut left overs
3) some kind of lighter - to quickly burn ends before they start split
4) I've used tape - to mark where we make 2nd knot (rope needs to be a bit loose)

    The bowline is an excellent knot used often in boating. It's best attribute is that it can be easily untied even after subjected to a heavy load. For your application there are much better options. Thanks for posting the video!

    Thanks for the very helpful video lesson. I followed your instructions using nylon rope (because it is softer on the hands than poly rope) and had it done in no time.

    Nice bowline but I find it safer to tie both knots onto the bottom rung of the "fly" aka operable section.

    Excellent video. I was wondering how I extend a long ladder! Those catches that lock the ladder in position and allow you to raise and lower the ladder, what are they called, and where can I buy them? We don't seem to have anything like that in the UK.

    I think that your video answered some of my questions. But I still have a question for you. When replacing the ladders rope....why don't you completely extend the ladder COMPLETELY. I had been led to believe that full extension was a MUST in order to ensure that the replacement rope was long enough.

    I believe the rope is stretched to it's longest length when the ladder is closed to its shortest length.

    This is not how to do it. The knot used is fine but ALLAYS tie the 2nd knot to the same rung as the first one. That way the the rope will neatly follow up as you raise the ladder. No floppy rope to have around. Always use static line if not using original ladder rope.

    exactly. I was waiting for the final test but intentionally he didn't show the lower part of the ladder and how much of the rope is ending on the ground by pulling up the extension.Its a safety hazard btw.

    How long does it take to burn an end of a rope??

  • @paveljedlicka8555

    UPDATE:What I have found is that this rope is shrinking even thou ladder is in a garage! It has shrank at least one inch. So the extending part of ladder doesn't fully slide down & it doesn't "lock" back in position (it is hanging on a rope bit). No big deal for me as I have it laying down for storage but it might be problem for those who stand the ladder against the wall. Great news is that it doesn't affect functioning of ladder in any way.

    If you’re doing a video of tying a knot, you need to zoom in so people can see what you are doing.
