Description
The ACRO Chicken Ladder System comprises the 6-ft ladder section (11601) and the reinforced ladder hook with wheel (11610), engineered for efficient and safer rooftop access. Built from heavy-duty steel with a powder-coated safety yellow finish, each 6-ft section features hand-welded raised rungs for strong footing and easily attaches to others via a 121" bolt and lock nut. The 10" hook (11610), which is reinforced with a 21" rod and mounted on a wheel, enables smooth rolling up the roof without causing damage; once at the ridge, the ladder flips over and hooks securely. The modular design allows stacking up to four ladder sections for a combined length of 24 ft. Ideal for staging and quick on-off work on steep sloped roofs, this system provides a durable, mobile climbing and working platform that simplifies positioning and enhances worker safety, supporting up to 250 lb per section.

-
Position the 11610 hook at the ladder's top end, securing it with the same bolt and nut assembly.
-
Place the hook’s wheel at the base of the roof; carefully roll the ladder up the slope until it extends over the ridge.
-
Once past the peak, flip the ladder so the hook engages firmly on the opposite side of the ridge.
-
Use the ladder sections as a stable staging or walking platform.
-
After use, reverse the procedure: flip, roll the ladder back down, and unbolt sections for compact storage or transport.
