EasyScape Fire Escape Ladder

Fire escapes in the home should not mean installation of fixed, bulky ladders that detract from the appearance of your home, and now it doesn't.  The EasyScape is a roll-away ladder that is not only easy to deploy but also, due to its design, tangle-free.

The EasyScape fire escape ladder can also be rolled up after use, ready for the next time it needs to be deployed.  By having the ladder stored separately to the fixing bolts in the wall, the ladder does not take up room space or look as unattractive as a fixed installation.

Fixing and Deploying the EasyScape Ladder

1. Fixing the Eye Bolts
Fix the eye bolts underneath the chosen window sill in accordance with the installation instructions. Eye bolts may be fixed underneath several windows to allow the EasyScape to be used in multiple locations.

2. Attaching the EasyScape Ladder
Clip the relevant carabiner onto its corresponding eye bolt, each carabiner has a label attached to show which eye bolt it should be connected to.

3. Preparing for Deployment
Open the window and lift the EasyScape ladder onto the window sill, the ladder is now in position ready for deployment.

4. Deploying the Ladder
Pull the rope out of the toggle to free the ladder and then gently push the EasyScape out of the window, the ladder will now deploy by itself.

5. Begin the Descent
Check that the ladder has fully deployed and that the backing sheet does no obstruct the rungs, begin to climb down the ladder one person at a time.

6. PLEASE NOTE:
Ensure you refer to the user manual and installation guide before fitting and using the ladder, if you are unsure about the structural soundness of your wall please consult a builder before fitting.

Q.Which ladder is suitable for an attic window with a sloping roof outside?

A.Both the EasyScape and Rollo Roll-Out escape ladders are suitable for attic applications and can be used with a Velux or Dorma window. They have a fire retardant backing sheet that prevents the ladder getting tangled on deployment.

Q.Is a wall mounted escape ladder better than a floor mounted ladder?

A.Most customers prefer wall mounted fire escape ladders. However there are some situations where there is no option but to install a floor mounted fire escape ladder. There may not be enough room under the window or the wall may not be of a solid enough construction. With all fire escape ladders it is very important that the anchor points are solid.

Q.What type of fire escape ladder is suitable to use with small children and pets?

A.To be able to carry small children and pets down the escape ladder you would require a child harness. This is suitable to use with all the escape ladders. The escape ladder that is most suitable to use with small children is the externally fixed Modum ladder. If you would like a portable ladder the Saf-Escape and EasyScape ladders are also suitable. These ladders use thicker chain and rungs and are therefore a little easier to use if you are carrying a child or need a small child to climb down itself.
