I have a GMC2500. The top of tailgate is 38''. The ladder is almost straight down. Would not go over the 38''

I had measured it previously and believe it rises to over 5 foot fully extended, but it adjusts to whatever you need. One great feature is I have had the front legs long and back short so I could place it on stairs without falling.

the guard only goes to the edge of the open tailgate, so not truly an extension. but for practical purposes, it adds length equal to the height of the tailgate, or around 2 feet.

The space was 11" but it would not fit over my gunwale. I have a 19 ft bow rider 1987 four winns. I never thought about it not fitting. But it didn't. Great ladder but I had to send it back. Make sure you measure right.

The distance between steps are a standard ladder distance. I own a 2003 F150 4x4 and the ladder touches the ground. which the tailgate sits about 3 feet off the ground.

When it is folded I have 66", that is with the guard down. I hope that helps. My ladder has 4 steps.

When open, the ladder is 51 inches to its highest point, the top of the tool tray. The highest step is the platform which is 33.75 inches from the floor. The floor space needed when open is 20 inches wide by 32 inches deep. When closed, the ladder is 55.25 inches high and 4.75 inches thick.

About 3 feet. The protection rail is about 8 to 10 inches all around except where the ladder is.

The ladder's width is tapered. Mine measures 21" wide at the base, 16" at the top step (platform), and 13.25" at the very top.

Hi, the top rung is five feet off the ground on my six foot Louisville Ladder :)

I'm not sure what the directions say, but ladders should be 1' out for each 4' up. This is OSHA's standard.

I am assuming the 32' extension ladder would be around 16' in the "closed" position. If so, I would think you would be able to haul it in the bed of your truck with this bed extender. The longest item I have hauled was a bundle of 12' 2x6's but I didn't feel that I was "maxing out" on the extender's length limit in doing so. You should consider weighing down the ladder end in the bed with a couple bags of sand and definitely secure the ladder well to the extender and bed. I have not used my extender in the raised position where you would carry the ladder on your truck cab roof and the raised extender but that would be another and possibly better option with this carrier.

With a height of 47 inches to the floor the junior ladder at 44.5 inches is too short. An incline is best to spread the stress between both ends, rather than have all the stress on the end that is hanging. The tall ladder is taller than needed for an incline. You don't want the ladder sticking out far, giving you more opportunity to trip over it. That would leave the regular ladder at 59 inches in height as the choice for you.

The highest step on the ladder is about 3'9". You could not reach far enough for 11 feet.This is a marvelous ladder for approx. 9 feet.

Well the ladder is 8' closed. So in the open position, it is probably 7'10". The rule of thumb is this: If you have an 8' tall celling, get a 6' ladder. If you have 10' celling's, get an 8' ladder and so forth. That may be a better rule of thumb. Enjoy, -Ken

Sorry I measured the wrong gate. This gate I have set at almost 60". There is about 4" of adjustment with the screws. I used two extensions to get to the 60".

you can extend the ladder as tall or as short as you need but not half a rung, they must lock in as you extend each one.
