Werner’s New Extension Ladder WalkThru^™ Enhances Safety for Users Working at Heights

Werner recently announced the new Extension Ladder WalkThru^™, a ladder accessory that allows users to make an ergonomic transition area from extension ladder to roof. It allows the user to step directly from the ladder onto a roof, without stepping out to the side, bracing the transition from the roof to ladder and vice versa.

Following the debut of Werner’s GlideSafe Extension Ladder, which uses an innovative and rugged system that makes it up to 50% easier to raise and lower the ladder, the new WalkThru^™ accessory builds on the brand’s legendary legacy of safety and ease of use for customers.

“Those who work on rooftops know the transition from the ladder to the raised surface can be a daunting task,” said Melissa Moss, product manager – Fall Protection. “This fall protection accessory improves access to the rooftop and provides an ergonomic transition area from a Werner ladder to the roof. The Werner Extension Ladder WalkThru is built by Werner, for Werner, and designed to work seamlessly with our industry leading Type II, I, IA and IAA extension ladders.”

The WalkThru^™ accessory is built to work seamlessly with Werner’s industry-leading ladders to ensure a proper product fit.

When installed on an extension ladder, the Werner WalkThru^™ serves as an extension above the top support for access to an elevated surface. And with its all-aluminum construction, it is 25% lighter than similar models from competitors.
Coming soon, a spring-loaded gate accessory will add more security to the top transition on Werner ladders, by serving as a continuous guardrail. Designed with a robust spring and mag-lock closure, the gate accessory provides a useful and clear access point to a raised work area.
