NEW DESIGN Aluminum Rope Ladder

This three hole saddle designs real difference is noticed in the narrower webbing, which offers more foot room for the climbers. Our Aluminum Rope Ladders are our most requested Rope Ladder as it is lightweight and compact.

As can be seen from these images, our ladders are actually made from super-strong polyester webbing also certified and UV stable as well as resistant to abrasion, each layer has a breaking strain in excess of 2000kg. These webbing ladders are far superior to actual rope as they are stronger, lighter and far more stable to climb. We produce Fire Escape Webbing ladders, Industrial Webbing Ladders as well as aircraft webbing ladders used in helicopter applications for movies, military and sea rescue and much more.

*All Metzco Rope Ladders come with International Safety Certificates to OSHACT D.M.R. 18/5

Emergency escape Metzco Rope Ladders are not made from rope, which is cumbersome and inclined to "tangle" easily, our ladders are made from high strength UV resistant polyester flat webbing and multi-reinforced and secured. In fact, our webbing straps can withstand well over 2 tons (2000kg) each and we have two, super-stitched with high-tensile, silicone-impregnated UV resistant thread! (feeling safe now?)

Our rungs are made from a very special high-grade 6063/T6, copyright protected, fluted, double thick inner wall, ribbed, non-slip, anodized aluminum. De-burred and countersunk for safe hand protection whilst climbing.

These, virtually unbreakable rungs, are "housed" in a particularly super-strong patented method of trapped-in-place by 60% glass-filled nylon saddles and secured with 8 pop-rivets on each rung. This ensures maximum strength and safety as well as secured to prevent either longitudinal or latitudinal movement and provides friction protection shielding.

Each ladder is pre-stressed to eliminate "stretch" and the patented design is for perfect center-of-gravity hanging for the most comfortable, stable and safe climb, up or down.
