An injection-molded climbing stick includes a first step, a second step, and a post extending from the first step to the second step along a length of the post and comprising a plurality of fibers that includes every fiber that is disposed within the post. The plurality of fibers includes a sub-plurality of fibers. Each fiber in the sub-plurality of fibers is elongated in a lengthwise direction of the fiber and oriented such that the lengthwise direction is substantially parallel to the length of the post, and the sub-plurality of fibers includes a majority of the fibers in the plurality of fibers.

A ladder assembly having an integrated shoulder rest for facilitating moving of the ladder includes a stepladder that comprises a pair of front rails and a pair of rear rails. Each of a plurality of first cutouts extends arcuately into an inside face of a respective front rail. Each of a plurality of second cutouts extends arcuately into an inner face of a respective rear rail so that the second cutout is aligned with an associated first cutout when the front rails and the rear rails are in a collapsed configuration. The second cutout and the associated first cutout are configured to insert a shoulder of a user, positioning the user to carry the stepladder.

The Folding Ladder system is comprised of a square edge Double Sided Folding Step Ladder and a square edge Straight Folding Ladder. Both Ladders are collapsible and fold at each Step level which allows the Ladders to fold to a fraction of their normal size. The square overlapping Sections are unique to these ladders. They looks like regular ladders but on closer examination each Section collapse on the Section below which creates a stock up effect that cause the ladder to fold to about a quarter of its original size. The Double Sided Folding Step Ladder has Angled Uprights at the Bottom Section which gives it a wider base which prevent side tip over. The Top Step of both Ladders is not a Step. It is a storage compartment with rounded top not suitable for standing. An access door in the top of the Compartment give access where small tools and parts can be put away safely, without falling if the occupant moves the Ladder.

Attachments for a collapsible marine ladder including a rung attachment for attaching to the ladder rungs. Each rung attachment includes an upper part having a first channel defined along a downward facing side of the upper part. The first channel receives an upward facing side of the rung. A downwardly angled section of the upper part extends below the rung when the upper part is attached to the rung. A pad is received on top of an upward facing side of the upper part and interfaces with a user's foot. A second channel on an upward facing side of a lower part receives a downward facing side of the rung such that the upper part attaches to the lower part. A rail attachment attaches to a rail of the ladder and receives a rail extension for extending the length of the rail. The rail extension has a handgrip.

A modular ladder system has a rung section having two elongate lateral stile extrusions and elongate rung extrusions spanning therebetween. Each stile extrusion may define an attachment side having an attachment face which has two attachment channels which are adjacent, parallel and longitudinally arranged along the attachment face. Each attachment channel may have inward facing rails which define an elongate insertion space therebetween and a relatively wider connector head accommodation void thereunderneath. Furthermore, each rail may define a connector head engaging under edge. Each stile extrusion may further define a connection side adjacent to the attachment side which may define a splice joint extrusion accommodating void therein. In this way, the present modular ladder system may be quickly and easily constructed and various accessories quickly and easily attached thereto.

A rung which can be installed in a ladder is disclosed which comprises a first plate having first and second ends, each of the first and second ends having a relief tab and an opening, and a second plate, the second plate being identical to the first plate, the first and second plates being nestable such that the relief tabs of the first plate insert through the openings of the second plate to form the rungs.
