Ladder Leveler Stabilizer (KeyLok® Quick Connect Style) Complete Kit

Installation was perfect as I followed the directions, which are pretty straightforward if you have the basic mechanical abilities. The provided hardware was complete and of good quality. Best of all, the Levelok works perfectly. It is easy to adjust to the precise needed height, it is very stable, and it is easy to change to the opposite side as needed. I can't belief that I fussed with blocks of wood, bricks and other attempts to level my ladder which were much less safe than this accessory, as there is little level ground and many steps on my property. It's about time I solved that problem.

Werner PK70-1 LevelLok Quick Connect Ladder Leveler KitThis kit is well made, strong, easy to install and use, has a pro-quality swiveling ladder foot, works well, and is designed to be rust/corrosion resistant.In an email from the manufacturer, here's what they said:... "the double row of ratcheting teeth and automatic, back-up safety mechanism are both made of stainless steel; extremely resistant to corrosion. The piece (pawl) that engages (locks) into the teeth is made of a specially engineered and processed steel, then plated with a new, innovative corrosion resistant material that lasts 2 times longer than zinc or other common types of metal plating on the market. The double claw, swivel shoe is also treated with the same corrosion resistant material".In spite of the above, since it wouldn't be good for the ratcheting mechanism to get dirty with leaves or other debris, I store the removable leg inside, and sprayed WD-40 on the gearing for even more rust protection. In any case, since the removable leg adds a couple of pounds to the ladder bottom, it only goes one when it's needed.The yard in front of our house slopes down to one side, so when this leveler is needed, it only takes about two minutes to snap it on the side of the ladder with the slope. I lean the ladder against the house and extend the leveler with a foot - the ratcheting mechanism locks it in place. It really is an ingenious device.Even with this device though, if one ladder leg is lower than the other by only an inch or so, I sometimes just use a scrap of wood to bring it level. If it's more than that, this device is allows a ladder to be used safely.

This makes life so much easier and safer when working on uneven ground. No more searching for material to shim one side and hoping it holds. Quick and easy install, but when drilling the base hole, I would favor towards 4-3/8 rather than the 4-1/4 to all for better clearance on level ground.

This should be a worthwhile safety feature to add to my 24 ft fiberglass extension ladder. For years I've been using 2X4 blocks, bricks, wood shingles, you name it I've probably used it to level my ladder on uneven surfaces - you probably have too! Misses Claus left this leveler under the tree: I'm presuming it's to prolong my useful life and/or limbs. Haven't had time to install on ladder yet, but it appears to be a simple enough procedure, after perusing the instructions. I like that it has 10 inches of adjustablity, and doesn't require much modification of my ladder, only a few mounting bolt holes in each leg. Although this product is made in China, (I'm always disappointed when I discover that) it appears to be of good quality and strong, but still feels fairly light in weight, and that's a good thing, because it feels like my ladder has been gaining a lot of weight as the years wear on. I'll try to update this review after Ive had time to evaluate ease of installation, use, safety, etc.

This full Ladder Leveler Set (with the leveler part) is a superb product, with all the required mounting HW included, and easily rates 5 Stars IMO. Excellent design engineering, excellent product quality, excellent safety and functionality. Yes, they add a couple of pounds to the weight of the ladder-- but when you're 30' up and feel stable and comfortable that you're not depending on some jerry-rigged support, it becomes crystal clear that the designers made the right choices. I thought highly enough of this set that I just ordered a "Base Kit" (everything but the leveler part itself) to equip a second ladder. Being able to move the leveler part from one ladder to another is a welcome economy-- although if I was a contractor using multiple ladders at the same time, I would gladly have purchased a second full set.I want to emphasize that this set came with ALL the mounting hardware (bolts, spacers, washers, nylock nuts) that I needed to install the bases. The reviewer who took away 2 stars for lack of HW must have gotten an "open box" with the (high quality) HW removed. I DO agree with one reviewer who complained to the effect that these products should come with an illustrated parts list, so a buyer can KNOW whether everything is there when s/he opens the box. The instructions do NOT indicate how many of each HW part should be included.

This is a solid product. I hate putting up christmas lights since our yard is far from flat. With this, it was not big deal. I expected it to make a difference when the ground was really unlevel, but I did not realize what a difference it would make when it was only a matter of an inch or two. The ladder sits solidly on the ground and everything is easier as a result. Switching the device from one side of the ladder to the other is not too hard. I'm very glad I sprung for this, it's expensive but I really like it.
