How many inches of ladder needs to extend above the roof line if you attach one of these to the end? Will it work w/less than a full rung clearance?

The top rung should be at the same height as the roof to avoid a trip hazard.

I would think it should be ok. These extensions slide on the ladder rails. So as long as you have a few inches of the original ladder to roof line, I think it should be ok.

The "box" portion of the extender actually makes the ladder rail effectively a few inches longer, and is very sturdy, so...as long as the ladder itself actually makes it to the roof line, you should have no problems.

It's the overall length of the ladder when it's fully extended. So you'll be able to stand on probably the third highest rung which will give you about a 22 foot height. Each of the 2 sections is telescoping, then it unfolds. But be aware that this ladder has to be over 50 lbs. which will make it tremendously hard to handle. The one I have is just as heavy and my neighbor and I together could not maneuver it into position to reach his roof gutters. We gave up! It's just too cumbersome when it's unfolded. But in the fully extended A frame position, it's easier to manage. That will make it about I guess is 12.5 ft high total. At that height, a 6 ft. man reaching up should be able to change those pesky light bulbs on a 17 ft. vaulted ceiling. Good Luck!

Sorry, I wouldn't know because I don't own that ladder. I have mine on a standard aluminum extension ladder, so I would measure the width between the sides and height between rungs on yours and then go to a home depot or the like and compare the measurements. If they are the same, then you should be good to go.

Hi Joe. Yes, it works great for that and the main reason I purchased it. We were working on a second story eave from a first story roof. Just follow all safety precautions and tie of your ladder while you work.

i just extend what i need. you can leave as many rungs collapsed on the bottom. this ladder has worked great.

I'm using one with a 32' extension ladder.It holds it fine,but I also secured the ladder to my floor trusses,on the pulley end,with an endless rachet strap.

I used (3) 1/2 x 2" .,.. That may be more than needed, my ladder is a aluminum extension that is 12' long when collapsed

I think you pretty much need to separate the base section from the extension section before using these hooks. At least that's what I do. I use the base section to climb up to the section that is hooked over the roof ridge.

Hi, David:I actually have no idea. I would imagine that it would but I have never had an articulating ladder in my hands or within 5 miles of me (that I know of). You could get one of these and try it and, if not, have a great stabilizer for other extension ladders.

I dont think so. At full extension mine only reaches 45 -50 down from the roof

I believe mine will go to 12 feet. I used it recently to put a tree in a dormer above a two-story entry way. I had it extended approximately 11 feet. My daughter was on one side of the ladder and I on the other. It was very sturdy!

If on a flat roof, there are extensions which go straight out onto the roof and are anchored down.If at the peak or on a slant, there are a couple of brackets you can use to install on the level. hope this helps/

"Step 11 for SAFETY during use: Never attach Ladder Max to top ladder rung. Always expose THREE ladder rungs above the edge of the roof when positioning Ladder-Max unit on a roof, for ease of mounting and dismounting the roof."

31 is correct, although mine came with two oprtional plastic "risers" that can be placed under the bottom edge to give the ladder a couple of inches of lift - those would add about 1/2 inch to the outside width of the very bottom to make it closer to 32 inches at the floor.

I have not used the extension before and had frankly forgot about it - but I pulled it out. I am 5 ft 4 in. I have standard 8 foot ceilings - but I stood over where my stairs are and the ceiling climbs up and with the extension on and the vacuum hanging using the shoulder strap - I am estimating that the top of the extension was reaching about 9 ft. So - if you are my height or shorter - then you would definitely need to stand on a chair, is my guess for anything higher than 9 feet.

I am not sure what you are asking. The distance between rungs is 12" plus or minus. If you want to elaborate on your question I will try and answer it the best I can. I don't have the small ladders I have the 21' units with work planks.

Well I don't know how tall you are, nor how low your ceiling is. I'm 5.3 and need a ladder to pull the cords. Guess it's all relative. But I'd say yes that's how tall it is, looks about that - not climbing a ladder to measure. Sorry.
