I too have had my ladder in a bunch of different places over the years. I raised and lowered it on an elaborate pulley system in the last house. I would have reinstalled it but this ceiling is finished and I had no place for the counter weights. This is the first project in 40 years I haven't had to make a run to he hardware store for anything!!! One recommendation I would make is to mount the first vertical before assembling the threaded rod, etc. It was much easier.

The rolling bar is a brilliant idea. I've been using two L shaped inserts to slide in and secure the lower part of my ladder. I then run a chain through a step on the top side to hang and lock it in place on the ceiling. I'm renovating the garage and covering up the trillion and trillion of holes the previous homeowner drilled. I never thought of using a rolling bar. I'm going to use that! And replacing the Z inserts for two hooks as well. Thank god my garage ceiling isn't that high. Thanks for the inspiration!

Great tutorial. Love it! Just what I needed to store my 10 foot tripod orchard ladder. I just have to see how to get it as close to the ceiling as possible. I'm also thinking I should definitely plan for the smaller tapered (top) of the ladder to go in first over the roller, and then use 2 hooks like you did for the wider ("base") end as I feed it up there when putting away.

@reaxions Жыл бұрын
It's a nice idea, but that roller is extremely dangerous. A better and safer way to do this, as I've done with my heavy steel vehicle cargo rack and a 28' extension ladder, is to use those J- hooks on both ends (two on each end). You first set the top of the ladder on two J-hooks set inside of the ladder rails and facing the same direction as the length of the ladder, to hold the top rung, which would prevent it from falling/rolling off, if you dropped the other end while lifting it up. Then, you place two J-hooks on the other end just outside of the ladder rails and also facing the same direction as the length of the ladder. As you lift the second end of the ladder up, you merely rotate the J-hooks about 90° inward to now hold each of the rails. It's unnecessary, but for those who like redundancy, you could also mount additional J-hooks on both ends to mirror the setup on either opposite end and simply twist those to also hold the respective ladder rung and rails. I've used this method (the 4 J-hook method) for 20+ years with zero issues or worries, and as long as your J-hooks are screwed deep into the ceiling joists, just twisting them 90° periodically doesn't reduce the J-hooks' ability to hold onto the joists at all.
@Ray_Here Жыл бұрын

Ray has a lot of patience with snarky comments. For many of us who actually get off of our butts and do things (rather than just trolling the internet looking for people to insult), we have several ladders. I have two extension ladders (like the one Ray was hanging in case you don't know what they are called), two step ladders, and one foldable ladder. I have a high ceiling in my garage. Put all that together and I, like many of us, would not need to go buy a ladder so that I could hang the other ones. Ray, thank you so much! I need to get these off the ground and hanging on the wall would take up the entire thing.

Ha! Great observation! I usually my ladder once or twice a year so using a step latter to get it down I’d worth the effort. One of my viewers is going to use this concept but add a pulley system. I may try that myself. Thanks for the bit of humor. I accept your premise.

Infinite loop :) would that create a hole in the universe?

A wooden dowel would do the same thing. And a fraction of the price.

You still need a ladder to hang a ladder to the ceiling?!

Dont use my extension ladder very often so I don’t care. I do use my light 3 step ladder often so I keep it on the wall. You can add a pulley system to get around that. Not worth the time and effort for me.

Yea, but you need a ladder to get the ladder

True, but I have a small 3 step lightweight ladder for that. I only used the 6’ ladder as I had it out to put the hardware on the ceiling.

So, you need a ladder to put your other ladder away.

I wouldnt store a ladder in a place that could potentially kill someone. Wall is much safer.

Wall may be safer indeed. Thanks for watching and commenting with your thoughts.
