Louisville Beats the Brands at the Big-Box Stores
Louisville Ladder
Professional-Grade Ladders: We only stock Louisville Ladders with 300 lb. load capacities. Not only is 300 lb. the recommended rating for ladders used in roofing, contracting and construction, but these heavy-duty ladders are safer and hold up better than those with lower ratings.
More Sizes in Stock: Our stores are committed to maintaining a stock of Louisville extension ladders in a variety of heights, including 20', 24', 28', 32', 36' and 40', so you can get exactly what you need with the convenience of Roofers Mart's curbside pickup or delivery.
Best Rung Lock Available: Don't let its appearance fool you. Louisville's patented MaxLock rung lock is custom engineered from an advanced molecular polymer and is the strongest, toughest, lightest rung lock on the market.
Quick & Easy Setup: Louisville's patented QuickLatch RungLock system allows for easy and intuitive adjustment and rung locking, so you can quickly extend or retract the ladder and lock the rungs in place.
Stable & Secure Foot: Louisville Ladder's patented floating foot is larger than the competition's. It's also riveted on four spots, giving you more stability on uneven surfaces and improving the ladder's durability.
Competing Brands
Retail Ladders: Most of the ladders you find at big-box stores are rated at 225-250 lb., which is better suited for residential and commercial use, like cleaning, painting and building maintenance. Exceeding the load capacity can potentially lead to ladder failure, accidents and injuries.
Taller Ladders with Higher Weight Capacities Hard to Find: Big box stores rarely stock ladders taller than 28', and the longer ladders they do have are regularly sold out. That means you either have to order your ladder and wait for it to ship, or compromise on what you want.
Inferior Rung Lock: The traditional steel and aluminum rung locks you find on competing ladders fall behind Louisville's Maxlock in strength, toughness and safety. They're heavier, and they don't hold up as well in extreme heat or cold.
No QuickLatch RungLock System: Since Louisville's QuickLatch Runglock system is patented, competing ladders do not benefit from the efficient and convenient setup Louisville's system provides.
Less Secure Footing: Ladders with fixed feet and fewer rivets are more wobbly and have a higher risk of tipping. They're also more prone to damage, and remember, if a ladder loses a foot, it should be taken out of service.
