He’s right of course about people following rules or building codes Dange, but the lines run mostly from head to head and just be careful where you plant. Good thread, be safe out there people.
I would think on cement or black top that the rubber would and could slide potentially harming you in the long run esp on a wet surface and leaves etc. On the dirt or grass usually the ladder digs into the ground so the mat being used could protect a nice lawn from having 2 big holes in it as opposed to smaller ones from the stakes… And I see how this could be used indoors as a great thing to not damage the clients flooring with ladders etc… But me personally i would never use one outside on cement or black top… I just think it will slide one day given the right circumstances… great thread…
Danger, thanks to your post I went out and got a heavy duty rubber mat to start using on slick surfaces. I know that it is not the Ladder Stopper but people tell me that it will help a lot anyway. I have had a ladder slide out on me before on a wood floor and that / you motivated me to do something for safety. Thank you!
Your welcome Jason…Like Chris said they should have them in stock within a few weeks , so check it out once they get them !

[FONT=Verdana]First things first ,welcome to the forum, I think your going to have a lot to add to window cleaners here on the forum with your many years of experience on tinting, heck you already have in other threads. Plus I’m sure your going to do well adding Window Cleaning to your Biz, very smart…[/FONT]
Rubber on cement and the black top should work better then on wet or mossy wood or wet grass ! The stopper is no differrent then the rubber below the ladder feet , sort of like your tires while driving in the rain ! Always being safe is key.
The stopper works well indoors also, on stone work or wood floors or tile ! I think cement and black tops it would be okay ! But good for you to think things through ! Trust the compass and the stopper just always think things through !
Also, I thank you for your thumbs up on the thread !

Thank you for the warm welcome… I like this forum and found it very helpful with loads of information… keep up the good work:o
Is the poster of this video the guy in the video? Did you by chance happen to be giving a couple of window cleaners grief about using a tucker pole in downtown seattle 6 months ago? 
Having had one of these at least 7 years I have never once thought about using it outside (except to straddle a pergola). No way I want it to pick up dirt or oil (from a driveway) when I’m using it on some marble floor. I will occasionally wipe it with clean water only. Heck I bring it in so the rubber can warm up before using it in the winter. Just make sure the bottom of your ladder is properly/evenly set next to the vertical support and not forcing your ladder to twist.
It’s great to use with the top section of a stack ladder.
