Cotterman 1000 Series Rolling Safety Ladder

Cotterman 1000 Series Rolling Safety Ladder, Expanded Metal Treads, Ships Assembled (59° Climb, Warehouse-Ready)

The Cotterman 1000 Series Rolling Ladder with Expanded Metal Treads is a warehouse favorite for one simple reason: it's built to perform on day one with minimal hassle. These ladders ship fully assembled, so they arrive ready to roll into position and go straight to work, no install time, no missing parts, no assembly delays.

For everyday comfort and safety, Cotterman uses a 59° climbing angle, providing a more natural climb than steep ladders and supporting frequent up-and-down traffic for picking, restocking, and cycle counts. The expanded metal tread steps deliver dependable traction while staying cleaner in real warehouse conditions. Their self-cleaning design lets dirt and debris fall through, helping maintain safer footing over time in dusty aisles and high-traffic stock areas.

♦ Handrail, handrails become standard starting at 2 steps for most configurations and are standard on every model with 5 or more steps.
