Abstract
An attachment device for supporting the head of a ladder over a window or opening in a building structure comprises a support rod 1 and a pair of sleeves 2 for securing the device to the upper ends of the ladder stiles by means of bolts 5. A rod 4, washers 6 and nuts 7 may be provided to secure the sleeves 2 through a hollow top rung of a ladder. A pair of elements 3 which are slidable on the support rod 1 and have arms that project towards the building support surface may also be provided. These arms may be positioned such that they are in surface contact with the reveal of a window and locked in position on the rod 1 by bolts 5, thereby preventing lateral movement of the head of the ladder during use.
