Hi Guys,

Just been searching the net, and came across this rather incredible ladder safety mat. For anyone using the rojak ladder stopper (as I do) , it looks quite similar (apart from the yellow, of course )



But, just wait til you see what it can sit on. Pick a surface, any surface! I think this could be the safest device yet. Don't get me wrong the ladder stopper is excellent, but I would never use it on some of the surfaces that this can be used on. Just watch the video.

And it's about same price as rojaks anyhow, I know what I'd go for if I had the choice.

Hope this is useful to someone.

That looked impressive to be honest.

i saw this on one shopping channel one sunday morning. it looks very impressive. they put it on a block of ice and then put the ladder on it. well worth it i think.

[captain lard]

Yeah that link shows that video and it looks interesting,had been thinking of needing some sort of ladder stopper just to be very safe esp with the winter coming up and that looks the biz.

[geefree]

just watched the video, on the last part he stresses to use the ladder at the correct angle.... that maybe a disclaimer ..!   got to be a good thing, will get one for the winter,....

has anyone bought one yet?

Yes i agree it looks very much kike a Rojak stopper, but anything that makes our job that little bit safer has got to be welcomed.

I hear the guy in the video broke both his legs, the Ladderm8rix stayed putt, but the decking slipped on the grass (only joking)

I have to take my mrs with me on some jobs to foot my ladder, for £70 I could sack her  excellent bit of kit I have seen it on the shopping channels, but never been tempted by shopping channels, now I have seen the video from a reputable company I just bought one.

Wife now sacked

Cheers Gazza

Hello,

I use a large non-slip rubber mat made especially for a car boot. Its great to be honest. Only cost me 2.99 from Focus and it works a treat. I can even fold ends over to level the ladder feet out.

Hi,I use one of these all the time,Ive had mine since I started nearly a year ago now,they are very good,they allso sell a level that you hold against the ladder that gives you the right angle to be at,just be carefull on decking as it can leave scratch marks.....the matrix that is not the level

Glad you found it helpful. Its nice to give something back once in a while.

I'm very impressed by this!!, I'm using a Rojak at the moment but this thing looks the bussiness, my only concerns are the pin things wearing out on driveways? Its the way it works on gravel that impresses me most, i have loads of houses with gravel round them, anyone use the Rojak on gravel??
