I once worked for a painter who had minor brain damage from trying to tie a ladder to the pole he was painting. Also, a guy who worked for my grandfather, got full disability taking on his own pole painting job. So I see this as an essential safety tool. However, I bet someone will over extend the ladder and try to sue the owner. The directions need to be clear on the type of ladder and extension allowed for each type. Also, redundant tying and harnesses need to be strongly recommended and mandated. I would also put 70 lb sand bags in the feet of the ladder, incase of operator error. I think with a type 1 I would recommend a max of 5 or 6 foot extension. So a 32 might be safe going 22 foot up. A 24 foot would safely do 18 foot high. A type 1 40 foot would take 3 guys to safely erect, but do up to 26 feet. Anything higher than a 6 foot extension does not give enough safety overhead to be considered safe.

Works well till someone drives off in the truck

Also, the top of ladder could be easily tied at each side to the windows of both doors of the truck. The two cords or ropes can be tied to the ladder before erection.

this works great. i put on atv. and have 2in rcvr mount on my bobcat. so i can get into tight places. yes i still need a lift sometimes but. i have it set up for almost 40 feet

You have a $1000 40 foot ladder? Right....

How the …. do I buy one can not find one for sale

More worried about the ladder than the rack..

Where can I get one? I’ve been calling and get no answer!

except you can't drive up in the home owners front yard. gonna use that, might as well get a lift. not good for cleaning windows.

looks cool but how about 40 feet up?

So you need to drive your pickup let’s say across someone’s yard over there leach fields or water lines and not damage not only there property but there grass as well ! The idea is good but I don’t know if it will work in normal ladder operations or situations 🤔

Like it. Where can I get it and how much?

How do I buy 1?

Can you use any ladder with this system?

You could also pull into the fair and charge people to take a ride around the horse track.

I don't get it? Most ladder manufacturers wouldn't suggest bearing weight on rungs and not the intended rails. Who would use this and for what? I have been a residential builder for 15 years and all I can think of is installing shutters over a garage window.

@@toddkratzer7953 but when you climb a ladder all your weight is on each rung one at a time. Obviously the rungs can hold the weight that is going to be placed specifically on the rungs... the rungs which are there to.... HOLD THE WEIGHT OF THE PERSON CLIMBING. Are yall all retarded or something?

AS A GC I WOULDN'T RECOMMEND/SUGGEST THIS PRODUCT.. To the guy who thought it was a vertical ladder rack till he hit the underpass.. How'd that go for you??

how do i order one?

The bracket to keep the ladder from moving up and down was installed incorrectly! It needs to be installed with the ladder rungs between it, not above it. D’oh!

It really doesnt matter

Great until Billy the laborer comes racing over to the truck busting for a sh*t, jumps in, starts the engine & shouts something about bringing coffee back for everyone...

Er what is the purpose of this? If you need extra stabilization there are products for the base of your ladder and it is mobile. This is way overkill and would only be useful where you can drive your pick up.

How about a fifty foot flag pole. My ladder is a 60 footer ..

Where can I get it......?

whoa that’s genius! 🙌

Is there a max height a ladder can be used with this? Is it dependent on the ladder?

@vistadrummer09

I've seen 18 feet. I imagine it's not engineered for anything over this due to limitations with the geometry and how that affects the leverage a 200 pound plus person can put on the ladder and therefore the hitch of the truck. If you put a 30 foot ladder on this and was on the very top I wouldn't be surprised if the truck it's attached lifts up and / or flips over.

@@vistadrummer09 I'd be more worried about the leverage on the two halves of the ladder. They aren't designed to be stressed that way.

are you still in business? website?

Me dad went up and down ladders his whole life mostly sticking a few sandbags on the bottom rugs and usually roping the ladder near the top. The monkey rack does seem clever though. Is it a problem to back up to a house to clean the gutter then attach the monkeyrack then realise you're too far away take it off again and reposition... ?Cos I guarantee I would do that so often lol

There does need to be a mathematic formula to determine the distance from the pole to truck hitch.

alright if you got a driveway what about a street setup

Is this safe to use at highway speeds?

I sem copied this, but made it so ladder fits in bottom groove and you tip the ladder up instead of lifting. Then there is a hook and lever to lift the ladder the fequired 2 inches. I never used it free standing, Ladder still leans on roof and unit is for stabilizing side .option only.

lug nut?!

DANGEROUS, you have changed the load applied on the ladder from supported at each end to a cantilever. Most likely it will snap at the rung at the top of the yellow frame. No ladder is designed or rated for this use. They probably know this by now.

Wing Nuts

Never.

Leave it to a Black Man to endorse a product with this name. Why did Howard Cosell get fired from CBS Sports? I think you need to change the name of the product, its not politically correct. What is the max height of ladder you can use on it? and do you have plans for somthing other then a truck's trailer hitch setup? What if you don't own a truck?
