Van Guard Accessories have launched a new hard-wearing solution to enable drivers to easily access the roof of vans.
Dubbed the UltiLadder, it’s been designed by expert engineers who have studied the different makes and models of vans on the marketplace to create rear door ladders that are bespoke to the van – with different numbers of steps available.
It’s constructed from lightweight but robust anodised aluminium and has also been designed to allow for quick and easy installation, with a fitting time of only 20 minutes. In fact, it’s billed as the fastest rear door ladder fitting on the market as it arrives pre-assembled.
Providing an upgrade to the current rear-door ladder offering, the brackets have been designed to sit in line with the curvature of the van. They’re also made from steel and are said to ensure the ladder can hold a weight of 140kg.
Amy Butterworth, Van Guard’s marketing coordinator, commented: “When we started to design the new UltiLadder, it was important to work with, and listen to our customers to ensure we were designing a product that meets their precise requirements.
“Developing a ladder with bespoke bracketry was just one of those requirements which meant studying the curvature of the rear door to ensure a flush and perfect fit. The use of anodised aluminium offers a lightweight but extremely hard-wearing solution, and the use of a black powder coat finish prevents the ladder from rusting.”
Butterworth continued: “We are constantly adapting our products to provide the ultimate range of van storage and security solutions for our customers, with the UltiLadder being one.”
