Folding Rescue Ladders
The Folding Rescue Ladder is a fold-down rescue ladder designed for floating piers and pontoons where safe self-rescue from the water is required.
- Hot-dip galvanized steel construction
- Fold-down design mounted under floating pier
- Sloping, easy-grip steps for safer climbing
- Ergonomic low-profile handle included
- Reflective rescue signage for clear visibility
- Standard package includes fittings and rescue markings
It stays out of the way in daily use while remaining immediately accessible in emergencies, making it a practical long-term safety solution for marinas, docks, and floating waterfront facilities.
Product overview
Floating piers and pontoons create a specific rescue challenge. A person who falls into the water may struggle to find a stable way back up, especially where the deck edge is high, smooth, or moving with the water.
The Folding Rescue Ladder is designed for this environment. It is mounted underneath the floating structure and folds down when needed, making it suitable for marinas, guest harbours, and bathing jetties where a fixed ladder would interfere with normal use.
Its sloping steps and ergonomic handle improve usability during rescue or self-rescue. Because the ladder follows the movement of the floating pier, it remains accessible relative to the water surface.
Shore Safety states that its lifesaving equipment supports MSB-related requirements and planning for safe waterfront environments.
