A safety ladder device supported by a worker to secure an extension ladder used by a worker to climb onto a roof to make repairs. The present invention is primarily used for roof repair construction on a parapet roof. The invention includes a wide section and a narrow section, one of which is hammered into a top wall of the parapet roof and extends forward off the roof to retain the extension ladder in a secure manner to prevent the ladder moving side-to-side or falling away.

A fall arrest system includes a ladder configured to provide access to an elevated structure and a fall arrest device configured to be secured to the elevated structure, the fall arrest device including an upper anchor, the upper anchor including a first end configured to be secured to the elevated structure and a second end distal from the first end.

A ladder dock system can include a ladder dock including a mounting panel and a connecting panel connected to the mounting panel, the ladder dock defining a ladder notch. The ladder dock system can further include a ladder configured to provide access to an elevated structure and sized to rest against the ladder dock, the ladder notch sized to receive and fix a position of the ladder relative to the ladder dock.

Systems and methods for securing a ladder to a gutter are disclosed. An insert includes a first portion configured to fit within an opening for the gutter and a second portion configured to form a channel configured to receive a front surface of the gutter. A number of arms extend from the second portion. The arms are selectively deformable into a number of positions, and may be wrapped around side rails of the ladder.

Ladder components, such as braces, as well as ladders and methods of manufacturing ladders are provided. In one embodiment, a ladder brace is provided which extends between a rail and a cross member (e.g., a rung or a cross-brace). The ladder brace may include a first connecting portion associated with the rail, a second connecting portion associated with the cross member, and a strut portion extending between the first and second connecting portions. At least one of the first connecting portion and the second connecting portion is configured to completely encircle its associated component (e.g., either the rail or the cross member, respectively).
