Dock Edge ECO Weld Free Fixed Dock Ladder

Instructions were simple & intuitive to follow and, I believe, after reading them carefully, and looking hard at the descriptive picture, I was able to install the ladder completely in about 30 minutes or less. I read other reviews that some edges were jagged but I did not find this to be true. Sure the metal pipe was cut in the manufacturing process but left no sharp edges that could cut once installation was complete. Once finished & bolt heads tightened, it became an amazingly sturdy little ladder that I will screw onto my floating dock and so give us an easy method of coming up out of our salt water river. Good product, thanks, and easier than me fabricating one out of wood which I originally thought I'd do.

Works great! Been in the lake for about a month now. Seems pretty solid. Not too tough to put together.Glad I got the 5 step. As a full size, 60 yr old human, it is sure nice to have that lower step to start with.

I wanted a 5-step dock ladder to replace our 4-step which wasn't quite long enough. This one is good. Not amazing but adequate. It's not as wide as I'd like, and like others have said, it does have some semi-sharp edges on the step edges (where it attaches to the vertical pole). But it seems sturdy enough. Instructions aren't great but you can figure it out. After maybe a few attempts. It only really fits together one way. And considering it was $150 less than local marinas for a 5-step they would have to order and wait 5 weeks for (this came in 24 hours), it's good enough for me! I will probably file the sharp edges down when I remove it in the fall. It's aluminum, so it won't be too difficult. Oh, I am 170lbs and it feels sturdy to me, mounted on our new aluminum dock. Not as sturdy as our square pole welded ladder, but it feels like it easily would support 250lbs.

The dock ladder is very sturdy and easy to put together. It does not come with the bolts to secure to your deck.

This is the second time I have purchased this ladder. The last one lasted 2 summer seasons at our beach association where it gets ALOT of use! Considering that, I think it held up well.

Perfect size for grandkids to get out of the water. Very sturdy.

A well built ladder, it fitted together fairly well, but there are very few instructions. You have to look at the pieces carefully, as the bottom will fit into the top, till you realize the step holes are now 90 degrees off. Also the insides of the tubes are rough, so either file them out before hand or take care in assembly. No mounting hardware comes with this kit.Once assembled (after a fight for my life trying to get a single stuck tube back out after miss-assembling it). I found the ladder is very strong and stable, the treads are a bit narrow, but not bad.

this is a nice ladder, however, i’ve tightened the bolts with an impact and still cannot prevent the ladder from wiggling when you climb on it. where the ladder itself fits into the handles is a very sloppy connection. hoping this ladder lasts a long time.
