Escape from a Dangerous House Fire with This Strong, Durable Ladder
Fire is a serious threat to every household; it can strike anywhere, any time. The frightening truth is that in 2005, there were nearly 381,000 home fires in the U.S., resulting in over 16,000 casualties. Because of the very real threat of fire, it is vital that every household uses tools for fire protection. When used in conjunction with smoke alarms and fire extinguishers, and as part of an overall fire-escape plan, the EL52-2 is an effective last-resort tool to help you and your family safely exit a dangerous situation.

Tough Nylon/Steel Construction, Anti-Slip Rungs, and Secure Hooks
Exceptionally durable, this ladder is tested to American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) standards. Featuring strong nylon/steel construction and measuring 14 feet in length, the EL52-2 provides a dependable means of escape through a second-floor window during a home fire.

This ladder is easy to set up and is strong enough to help both children and adults quickly exit to safety. It arrives fully assembled and ready to use in one minute. Extra-wide hooks secure the ladder to any windowsill measuring at least 20 inches (51 centimeters) wide and 32 inches (81 centimeters) high with a sill width between a minimum of 6 inches (15 centimeters) and a maximum of 13 inches (33 centimeters).

The ladder's slip-resistant, epoxy-coated rungs provide sure footing, and steel stabilizers on each rung help keep your feet steady and balanced, preventing the rungs from swaying as you step on or off of them. For added stability, DuPont Cordura nylon strapping lends extra strength and durability, while steel construction tested to 1,125 pounds means this ladder holds up to 375 pounds at a time.

The EL52-2 comes with a six-year limited warranty.

5 out of 5 stars First Alert 2 story Escape ladder   November 14, 2009
Peter R. Stair
The 2 story escape ladder is perfect for my log cabin. There is only one staircase to the second floor. If a fire blocked that escape we would need to use a window. The ladder makes it safer.


3 out of 5 stars 2 story ladder will not work with wall thicker than 10 inches (at widest point)   October 8, 2009
Robert Wolfe (Michigan)
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

The description on the Amazon website says it will fit walls 6 inches to 13 inches thick. This is not true for the 2-story ladder. The widest the ladder can open is 10 inches, as correctly reported in one of the prior reviews. The instructions included with the ladder also say the maximum thickness is 10 inches. If the wall is 10 inches thick, the ladder will likely not work, either, since it probably won't hang right. In order to hang as shown in the picture, the wall can only be 9 inches thick. Measure the thickest part of your wall including interior and exterior sills. If you have a brick house, the ladder likely will not work. My wall was 12 inches, and the ladder cannot reach around it. Otherwise, it looked well-made.

This is a great product. It is built well and it necessary for any 2nd floor. I took it out of the box when it arrived, opened the ladder up, made sure it works, wrapped it back up and it fit back into the box easily. It is now under my bed. Definately recommend.

I have not gotten any responses but our tenants hopefully will not need this for any emergency. This product was bought as a precautionary and required piece of equipment for a rental home. Thanks.

Anyone that sleeps on the second story of a house should have some way to get out of the house if the stairs are blocked. this provides that at a good price. One thing that could be better is to have some kind ladder like this hidden in like a window sill planter or something like that.
