Ladders, ladder components and related methods are provided. In some embodiments, adjustable stepladders are provided which include locking mechanisms that enable height adjustment of the ladder through application of a force towards the rails of the ladder. In other embodiments, spreader mechanisms are provided with cross bracing located and configured to provide additional stability to the ladder while also incorporating a handle that enables efficient collapsing of the ladder while reducing the potential of pinching ones hands or fingers. In another embodiment, a device is provided for selective coupling with the ladder that includes a support or safety rail and an adjustable tray. The device may be coupled with the ladder in a number of different positions including a stowed position. In another embodiment, a hinge assembly is provided having a magnetic component configured to be magnetically coupled with and temporarily store an object on the ladder.

A ladder tray assembly includes a case that has a recess integrated therein. A lid is hingedly coupled to the case for opening and closing the case. A pole is extendable through the case and the pole is inserted into a rung of a ladder thereby mounting the case to the ladder. A case member is coupled to and extends away from the case and a grip is coupled to the case member. The grip extends around the pole when the pole is extended through the case and the grip extends around the rung through which the pole is extended. A pair of storage units is each attachable to the lid when the lid is in an open position to facilitate tools stored in the storage units to be accessible to a user.

The problem of traversing the offset area between the fly section and the base section of an extension ladder is solved by a step adaptor of the subject invention. A step adaptor can have two or more steps which can be progressively narrower in depth. The step adaptor can be placed on the first available rung just below the fly section. The progressively narrower depth of the steps of a step adaptor create a transition zone in the offset area that reduces the abrupt change in distance between the rungs in the fly section and the rungs in the base section.
