The X-IT ladder is probably the safest portable fire escape ladder in the world. Its semi-rigid design of inter-locking sections stops the ladder from swaying and swinging. Steel rungs have stand-offs that keep the feet safely off the wall. Manufactured in the UK from zinc-plated steel, the X-iT is independently tested to withstand a distributed load of 450kg (992 lbs).
The minimum opening width of the window is 300mm (12 inches). Adjustable hooks fit over most walls and can even be used if there is a radiator on the inside of the wall. The strong hooks also offer a good handhold. The escape ladder is suitable for walls from 9 inches (23cm) up to 20 inches (51cm) thickness.
In an emergency lift the ladder out of the box, place it over the wall and pull the release toggle, the ladder will then automatically unfold and the sections will inter-lock.
Note Once released the ladder becomes a rigid unit and is best re-packed by laying it flat on the floor at full length. This can be difficult for the longer lengths. We therefore recommend that you do NOT practise the deployment and the escape with this ladder! You should, however, practise the application of the hooks over the wall to get used to the handling of the ladder.
