Specifically designed with the worker in mind, ErgoRack is our award winning ladder transport system and already counts over 1 million users.
Engineered with extensive research of human body mechanics and ergonomic principles, ErgoRack allows users to load and deploy ladders from commercial vehicle roof with up to 70% less physical effort.
Operated from the ground, ErgoRack prevents slips and fall accidents by eliminating the need to climb on the bumper or tire.
Reduce back and muscle fatigue up to 70%. Reduce workers’ efforts and eliminates incorrect loading techniques.
Load and unload ladders in 30 seconds, independently from the height of vehicle’s roof.
Effortless ladder deployment using just 2 fingers using the extendable ratchet handle.
Premium quality aluminum to resist any weather condition. Engineered for multiple daily usage with minimum maintenance.
Recognised as leading solution since 1992 for its ergonomic advantage on workers’ health and safety and company productivity.
With our ergonomic patented ladder carrier, workers can safely and quickly load and unload ladders from the ground, independently from the height of the vehicle.
The ladder does not touch the vehicle’s bodywork, preserving it from eventual damage and the lateral deployment movement makes it ideal for parking slots between other vehicles or on a hill.
Ladder is loaded from the ground to the front hook to counterbalance more than half of the ladder weight when swinging its bottom part to the rear hook.
Extra slide automatically delivered for high roof vehicles to lower the ladder further and assist its lifting.
Padded adjustable auto-clamp and support posts locks ladder in place during transport and reduce vibration.
Removable ergonomic handle for easy deployment operations while user remains on the ground.
The PDE lateral deployment ladder rack best for your needs depends on the ladder weight and van roof height.
All high roof version include an extra slide extension on the rear part of the ErgoRack.
Brings the ladder down in a horizontal position.
Ladders up to 35kg.
Brings the ladder down in an inclined position.
Ladders up to 55kg.
Economic ErgoRack: a front horn assists the worker to control lifting up and lowering the ladder, and two hooks clamp the ladder in place for safe transport when actioning the side S-Clamp handle.
For low roof vehicles.
The ease, convenience and safety delivered by this hyper-capable system saves valuable time daily, costly repairs to vehicles and injury to workers.
Developed and tested with orthopedics surgeons to reduce the impact on arms, shoulders and lower back.
Unlike many ladder deployment methods, ErgoRack causes minimal stress to the operator’s body and reduce back strains by two thirds.
For an average pulled force of 4.5 kg,
Traditional ladder rack solutions:
Upper arm force: 4.9 kg
Lower back force: 134.3 kg
ErgoRack ergonomic system:
Upper arm force: 1.4 kg
Lower back force: 44.5 kg
A hydraulic cylinder controls the movement of the ladder for smooth operations by controlling the glide speed.
The patented Auto-Clamp allows to prevent the ladder from tackling against the system and drastically enhance noise reduction.
Paired with the L-post and Z-post, the energy is absorbed and the ladder is safely secured during transport.
ErgoRack can be installed on the left side, on the right side or on both sides of commercial vehicles’ roof.
Add extra ErgoRack crossbar(s) and use it as roof bars system to carry long material aside your ErgoRack ladder deployment system.
Accessorise it with a rear roller.
ErgoRack can be installed on all models and brands of Light Commercial Vehicles (LCVs), utility trucks, fire vehicles and 4×4.
It is delivered with our patented mounting system, which is engineered and produce 100% in house.
