Can the ladder be used separately?

No. The seat must stay attached for functionality. It would not be safe to use the ladder alone. They have little 2 step stools for potty training out there.

Actually you can. You don't have to remove the seat either. There's a rubber base attached to the latter that reduces slipping. That being said, I would still use caution

We have not tried to separate it from the seat. But from the looks of it, there would not be a safe way for it to be used on the toilet w/o keeping it attached to the seat

Yes it can. My husband built a play house outside and hung the ladder on it. The kids love it. No problems

simple no,, you could jerryrig it but it would be unsafe and unwise it is designed for extension ladders

This could be a safety concern. The ladder portion can be removed to limit access, but the steps would be accessible to small children

No this would not work, you can only use at the top. If you are in a situation where the ladder is not on firm ground, you would need something much different to stabilize the bottom of the ladder - large sheet of plywood - something like that.

its not designed for that and it wouldn't be my recommendation. Gravity would not cause the ladder here to extend. Even if you could get this to work that way it would take so long to accomplish the task. Sorry to disappoint you.

Hi Tavia, no you can push the ladder in and out without the crank. You can also raise it without the crank, However I don't like pushing it DOWN by force, although its happened before and still works fine, it takes some force to push it and I don't want to take the chance. Overall a very sturdy toy

Yes, they can be used seperately. You would just have to cut off the prong part that would stick into the below layer. It would stand with the prongs though, just not look as nice.

You don't. It's not designed to fit inside the ladder, as the ladder closes tight upon itself. You can either hang it or store it (vertically) on the shelf nearby to take up the least room.

Yes ... There's 2 sets of directions for if you want to pu the ladder on the right or left side. Once together you just slide the dresser and shelfs under where you want them. They are seperate units. You don't even have to put them under if you don't want to but the main reason for me getting this bed is that it is a space saver ... As my daughters room is not that big.

I do not think you can use these ladders without a sill. The ladders hook over the sill and there is a little notch in the hook part that grabs onto the sill. There needs to be something to grab onto.

I believe it can. I gave a pair to my son in law who has a different brand of ladder. I understand that he uses it all the time as he works in hilly San Francisco.

Yes you can install the ladder on either end. My son has him ladder at the foot of the bed instead of the head and it works just fine.

I believe so. There is picture step by step process on the ladder. I have a 5 and 8 year old The 8 year old has no problem with it. My 5 year old can do it, just is a little awkward for her. Just like every safety device in your house, walk through it with your kids and have them practice putting it out. This device can be deployed and then put back together for storage.

That doesn't seem to bother the ladder, it may be hard on the little cogs over time operating it that way though? Elevation as far as the main ladder boom is the only thing you must use a crank for, the ladder can elevate up without the crank but has to come down with it. their is a seperate crank one for extending the ladder in and out and one for the up and down boom operation.

I am not sure if you can use it with extension ladder. I always use it with one piece of extension ladder because I doubt it would work with both pieces. Even if you could secure the ladder from coming apart, one section would be up a few inches higher and not resting on the roof as intended. I'd say only use it with a single section of ladder.

Depending on how high it is hanging and how tall of a person you are, yes you would need a ladder. So far I just use my remote that came with it. Cathy
