Havnt tried sandbags but I do use a partly filled water container (approx 10 litres) and my ladder stays very secure, even when climbing off it onto a roof.

I friend of mine who has been a window cleaner for 40+ years and still going strong uses sandbags on slippery surfaces and in high winds. Works for him, and by the length of his ladders, he scales some heights! He even uses a hard hat on some jobs as well!

What do people use to keep their spikes sharp?

One or two customers have recentlly laid smooth tiles in there gardens and at moment I have been trying to put my spikes in between the tiles in the grooves for safety but I am thinking of getting a ladderm8rix as that looks the best.  But can you use one of these if your ladder has spikes?

THESE LOOK IDEAL FOR LADDER USE ON DECKING, ITS CALLED A FOOTEE!
