Installation & Maintenance Tips
- Confirm anchor spacing before drilling: Measure your ladder model and tread configuration and set anchors accordingly.
- Use correct anchors for your deck: Match anchor type to concrete/deck style and ensure the ladder is plumb and square before final set.
- Rinse after use: Rinse rails and treads periodically to remove chlorine/salt residue and reduce staining.
- Inspect wear points: Check bumpers and treads for cracking or looseness and replace as needed to protect pool surfaces.
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stainless: Use mild soap and water for cleaning; avoid abrasive pads that can scratch the finish.
