A ladder tube (10, 12) for use in a ladder section of a collapsible ladder (1) is provided. The collapsible ladder comprises several ladder sections (5, 5a-5j), where each ladder section comprises two ladder tubes (10, 12) arranged parallel to each other and interconnected by a rung (20) to form the respective ladder section, and where each ladder tube (10, 12) is telescopically inserted into a ladder tube (10, 12) of a lower section to form the collapsible ladder (1). The ladder tube (10, 12) is characterized in that it has a cross-sectional shape comprising at least one straight section (16) which at each end is connected at an angle larger than 90 degrees to at least one additional section (18) of the cross-sectional shape.

A ladder selectively allows or prevents user access to the ladder steps, such that the ladder can only be climbed when such access is allowed. For example, the ladder may only selectively allow ingress into a bathing enclosure, e.g., when operated by an adult, but always allows egress from the bathing enclosure by any user. The ladder includes one or more safety blocks moveable between a safety configuration, in which ingress is prevented or inhibited, and a ladder configuration, in which ingress and egress is permitted.

A step stool having a platform having a length at least 1.5 times a length of a first step. The platform rotatably attached to a first front leg and a second front leg above the first step. The first step having a perimeter having a first side which extends down from a top of the first step. The first step having a first boss that extends outward from the first side through which a first fastener extends to attach the first front leg to the first step. The first step having a rib which extends outwards from the first side adjacent the first boss and in alignment with the first front leg when the first and second front legs and first and second rear legs are in an open position where they form a generally upside down V shape. The rib providing support to the first front leg when a cantilever type force is applied to the stepladder. A method for using a step stool.

Disclosed is an attachable pad to attach to a ladder, including: a main frame including: a middle portion, and a first end portion attached to a first end of the middle portion. The first end portion is folded to a first folding degree outward of the first side of the middle portion. The main frame includes a second end attached to a second end of the middle portion, in which the second end portion is folded to the first folding degree outward of the first side of the middle portion. The attachable pad device includes a first aperture attached to an upper left portion of a second side of the middle portion, a second aperture attached to an upper right portion of the second side of the middle portion, and a mechanism to attach the first aperture and the second aperture to the second side of the middle portion.

A ladder bumper guard comprising a durable flexible shell and a puncture-resistant cap within the shell, the cap configured to fit over a top end of a metal ladder that is configured to contact a building surface.

The present invention relates to covers for ladder stands and to methods of deploying same. In particular, the invention relates to camouflage covers for ladder stands designed to conceal same and to methods for deploying same.

A ladder knee rest comprising a padded frame with top and bottom lateral arms separated by a central support column. The frame can be hung in front of a ladder with a positioning strap, and the length of the positioning strap can be adjusted to move the frame vertically up or down the ladder. Securing straps extending from the lateral arms can be connected behind the ladder and tightened to prevent side-to-side movement. A user's knees can be placed between the padded top and bottom lateral arms to reduce pain and/or discomfort in the user's legs while the user works on the ladder.
