Fire escape ladders
-
- Fire escape ladders provide a means to safely evacuate upper floors when stairwells or main exits are blocked by fire.
- Common portable ladders come in rope or chain styles with hooks to hang on a windowsill and rungs to climb down. They roll up for storage.
- Regularly inspect the ladder for any signs of wear, fraying ropes, damaged rungs or broken hooks. Test bear weight load.
- Rope ladders can fray or rip. Chain links can break. Rungs may crack or break loose. Hooks can deform or snap off.
- Replace failing components if possible, or replace the ladder entirely.
