A Fire escape ladder<\/strong> is simply a ladder that’s used to make an emergency exit through a window if there’s fire. The ladders are typically made from metal wire, chain, or rope. Depending on the design, the fire escape ladder<\/strong> can be attached to eye bolts (anchors) fitted permanently on walls or have hooks to help it anchor on a wall. However, there are ladders that are more advanced and therefore are installed permanently on buildings’ cavity walls. They’re mainly used to assist in situations where potential exit routes are blocked by fire and there’s no other way to escape. Emergency escape ladders <\/strong>offer a much better and efficient way to escape to safety<\/strong> without waiting for fire rescue<\/strong> services. That is mostly in private homes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most often in some commercial buildings, there might be an insufficient supply of fire escapes. Hence, the use of fire escape ladders<\/strong> helps deal with this problem. They create a great alternative escape route for instance in buildings where some segments are excluded from escape routes via fire. In order for an emergency escape ladder <\/strong>to be used, a building has to have a special containing box for the escape ladder. Alternatively, another option is to have an inbuilt escape ladder on a window frame. There are different types of fire escape ladders<\/strong> on the market and each has its pros and cons.<\/p>\n\n\n
