Hausse Retractable Fire Escape Ladder 13 ft — 2-Story Emergency Ladder with Slip-Resistant Rungs

Hausse Retractable 2-Story Fire Escape Ladder is a ready-to-deploy, 13-foot emergency ladder with retractable hooks and slip-resistant rungs designed to provide a fast, reliable escape from second-story windows.

This compact, no-assembly escape ladder is built for quick deployment from upstairs rooms. The ladder extends to 13 feet—long enough for most second-story windows—and has been load-tested up to 1,000 pounds. Retractable hooks secure to window frames or sills, and the unit folds away into a red canvas storage bag that fits under a bed or beside a window so it’s within reach when seconds count.

How does the retractable hook keep the ladder secure?

The ladder uses metal hooks that lock onto a window frame or sill and resist slipping during use. Because the hooks are retractable, you can extend them to fit thicker sills or tuck them flat for storage. Properly extended hooks distribute weight and stabilize the ladder at the mounting point.

• Retractable hooks extend fully at both ends for secure attachment.
• Designed to sit on a window frame or sill without tools or mounting hardware.
• Hook geometry minimizes movement while descending.

How easy is it to use in an emergency?

No tools or assembly are required—pull the ladder from its canvas bag, hook it over a window frame, and unfold the rungs. The rungs are slip-resistant for safer footing and the ladder is designed for one-person rapid deployment. The product is intended for occasional emergency use, so practice deployments help ensure familiarity.

• Comes preassembled; simply attach, unfold, and descend.
• Slip-resistant metal rungs for steady footing during descent.
• Lightweight design with a carry/storage bag for quick access.

What are the ladder’s strength and size specifications?

This model extends to 13 feet, suitable for most second-story egress, and has been tested to bear loads up to 1,000 pounds.

Where should I store this ladder and how often should I check it?

Keep the ladder in its red canvas bag near likely exit windows or under a bed so it’s close at hand during an emergency. Inspect the ladder periodically for wear, ensure the hooks extend smoothly, and verify the rungs and straps are free from corrosion or fraying. A quick annual visual check and a practice deployment every year help confirm it will work when needed.

• Red canvas bag fits under beds or beside windows for fast access.
• Perform annual visual inspections and practice one full deployment per year.
• Replace after three years or sooner if any damage appears.
