Fast and stable

Easy to attach and remove, light, what more would you want from a standoff for an extension ladder?

Very Useful

I bought one of these last spring when we had to paint a house, shop, and garage with second story apartment. There were several of us painting using several extension ladders. We had a cheap sixteen foot aluminum, a good 20 foot aluminum and a heavy duty 28 foot fiberglass. The stablizer worked well on all the ladders and was easy to move from one to the other as needed. When it was on the 28 foot fiberglass, it was almost like walking up and down stairs.^M

When used on the 28 foot ladder, the ladder was fairly top heavy. My son, who's a fireman, showed me some techniques for standing the ladder up and taking it down. I could do it myself but it made a fairly heavy setup and it was more comfortable with two people.

Quickclick evaluation

Great product, easy to use and definetly increases stability and safety. The only change I would recommend is that it could be made with arms that could be adjusted to a greater width because of todays larger windows.
