The 4 Step WIDE STEP Finger Pier Retractable Dock Ladder provides a reliable and safe solution for water access from finger piers, marinas, and commercial docks. The Wide Step version features 3.5" deep steps, offering enhanced comfort and stability when climbing in or out of the water. Constructed from 1-1/2" diameter 6063 T5 marine-grade aluminum tubing, the ladder is designed for long-term durability and superior corrosion resistance in both fresh and saltwater environments. The frame and steps are TIG-welded, ensuring excellent structural strength and reliability under repeated use. Each rung includes extruded grooves that provide slip-resistant footing, even when wet or exposed to algae, enhancing safety for users of all ages. When fully extended, the ladder reaches approximately 48" (4 feet) from the top of the dock to the bottom of the ladder, making it suitable for standard finger pier heights. Installation requires four 1/2" diameter bolts (two per handle). Bolt length should be selected based on dock thickness, and stainless or galvanized hardware is recommended for maximum durability and resistance to corrosion. Key dimensions include an overall ladder width of 21", handle bracket depth of 8", handle height of 26" above the dock, step width/depth of 3.5", and step spacing of 12". This ladder is rated for a maximum load capacity of 650 lbs, making it ideal for commercial piers, marina use, and professional contractor installations. Due to its size and weight, this ladder does not qualify for free shipping. UPS Ground rates apply to ensure safe delivery.
